But chas v&#039;shalom to say such a thing about the Sefiros of Atzilus (that they are &quot;ayin&quot; or &quot;nullified in existence&quot;) - for they are Elokus (G-dliness), and therefore they are true existence &#039;&#039;&#039;from their own perspective&#039;&#039;&#039; (unlike created beings - whose entire existence is only from the perspective of Hashem&#039;s will).<br /> <br /> And so a tremendous question arises: How does the fact that the Sefiros are an existence &quot;fit&quot; with the belief that Hashem is One and Simple? If He is &#039;&#039;&#039;Simple&#039;&#039;&#039; (not composed of parts and limbs), what is meant by saying that He has will and wisdom and understanding and kindness, etc.?<br /> <br /> == The Explanation of the Alter Rebbe ==<br /> To this the Alter Rebbe answers that the Sefiros are &quot;hamshachah v&#039;hatzalah&quot; (drawing down and emanation), meaning they are not created from nothing but are a drawing down and emanation &#039;&#039;&#039;of Him&#039;&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> == See Also ==<br /> Olam HaAtzilus (The World of Emanation)</div>
