Sephira
Chohma – Wisdom
The
two sephira (spheres) situated under Keter in the mystic Tree of life are:
Chohma and Binah (Wisdom and Understanding). They both are related to concept
of Ajna (Third eye chakra), intuition, seeing the world beyond the veil.
Chohma
is associated with: Wisdom, inner knowing, revelation, memory, Light, brain,
skull, mindfulness; It is in the zone of conscious intellect.
Chohma
forms a triad – triangle with Keter and Binah – the sacred symbol of arch.
Michael, of knowing God and universe, higher consciousness, transcendent mind. It
also can be read as symbol for the Christian Holy Trinity (God Father, Son and
Holy spirit).
This
sephira represents human eyes – right eye – seeing hidden truth of the Universe,
connecting with God through devotion and rituals. Color of Chohma is silver
gray or indigo-blue.
Chohma
within the universal map of Tree is the first conscious intellect, first
sparkle of existence in Creation. It is Oceanic consciousness, spiritual will
and purpose. Chohma accepts the will of Creator as Father (Ab), and transform
it into vast wisdom, which is formless. It takes her shape by connecting with
Binah (Understanding).
Chohma
is potential for development, purpose and manifestation of universal laws,
genius, logos, pure spirit, transformation. It is the first manifestation of
Ein Soph with the ideal plan for the worlds.
The
sacred name of God in Chohma is: Yah
Wisdom
is in the right axis corresponds to tzelem Elohim – to the right eye and right
brain.
Two
partzufim (faces, aspects) of Chohma are: Abba Ila`ah (Higher father) and
Ysrael Saba –Israel the Elder.
It
is related to conscious mind, connecting with spiritual realm, visualizations
and dreams; Chohma is intuition, finding seeds of truth in the universal laws,
feeling the invisible forces of spiritual realm. In such way it is endless and
formless.
Chohma
is wisdom before words and language. That’s why this sephira is endless and
does not differentiate between good and evil.
The
human mind in Chohma is not quite aware, as it is impossible for him to grasp
the unlimited Wisdom.
Chohma
may be interpreted as “the potential to be”, derived from “koach” potential and
“ma” (what is). In connection with Keter Chohma emerges from “nothingness”
(Zohar II, 121a) if we see the infinite light of Ein Sof as nothingness
(emptiness). This is the primordial ocean, the Will of God, the first spark of
creation.
In
the Zohar Chohma is accepted as “power of selflessness” – it is in state and
ability to taste the Divinity through virtue of “selflessness”. When we realize
that all things created are One and united as one; in this point we are all
part of One Universe, one creation.
Chohma
is the first power of conscious intellect inside Creation.
