Man as a small world

Hey, what do you think about this idea that man is like a small model of reality in general (divinity).
The idea was already brought up by Chazal, and expanded upon in Kabbalah . I assume you know that there are also those who interpreted that the worlds of nobility, creation, etc. are merely a reflection of our soul, intellect, emotion, etc.
I’m interested to hear what your view is on this?

The idea is too general to express an opinion on. The claim that the Kabbalistic concepts are a different description of the soul has something to it, but in Hasidism there are many who see these concepts as just another psychological language. I think this is not true. It is a description of the spiritual components of the world, and this structure is also reflected in the soul.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen your series on Alphonseism yet, but by doing a little digging, I realized that Plato also had a similar opinion.

My next question to you, if you will, is what do you mean by spiritual elements?
Are you talking here about a certain leadership, for example, in which God leads His world? As a kind of laws of physics, if we can compare them to that?

And sorry for straying from the discussion, but where can I get your book 2 Carts and a Hot Air Balloon as a physical copy? I can't find it in Beit El…

I don't know.
This description of the world makes sense in certain aspects of it. There are various phenomena that can be attributed to grace and justice, creation and creation, and so on. I think I have a series of lessons on Kabbalah. There is also a series on mysticism.

Right now I have only found audio lessons on the Tzimtzum. You can also search the site in the answers, in columns, and more.
