Fll Chaiah. the Life-force, is that part of the
constitution of man specially attributed to
Chokmah. In organic life, it is a whirling force
inherent in the order of the constellations. This
is a conscious, vital, life-giving potency. It is the
masculine dynamic energy and protective power
that is the basis of physical procreation. In
Atziluth it is the Fire, the irresistible urge in us
of the Universal Will. All our drives to
understand, all our yearning to comprehend the
underlying forces of existence, are rooted in tlhis
drive to establish order out of chaos. rooted in
the Chokmah, or Wisdom. And this fire is
broadcast from Chokmah through Tiphareth, the
Central Ego to every human being, incarnate or
discarnate, via the path of Heh, the 15th path.
The first letter of Chaiah, Cheth, means fence.
The second and third letters IH, spell tlie diving
name of Chokmah, Yah. It relates to he
"protective" power of Chokmah and its being the
primary filed of the Life-power's self-limitation
by means of which all subsequent words of
formation are made possible. He who knows t:he
secret of this connecting relationship knows how
to attract all things, whether spiritual or
metaphysical. Magic is a mode of Life, a way of
living, in which the Magician is a medium -For
conscious expression of the irresistible power of
the heavenly order.
Life is Chaiah, seated in Chokmah, to which Yod
particularly pertains. For Chaiah is 'lw, Aur
and its number is 207, which is 9 times 23.
Twenty-three is the number of m, Chaiah, and
9 is the number of Yesod. As stated before
Chaiah is in Chokmah, and and Chokmah is the
power of X the Father. Thus Life and Light are
one; that Light is always pure and always Holy,
and the extension of Light is its multiplication
through forms. Note that the mystery of the 9"'
Sephirah is a secret of Yod. Yod is the letter of
Ab, and dilates upon Chaiah. The secret has to do
with the radiance of the stars, that is with Light,
which is one with Life. see 363, 1 1, 207,, 430, 80,
I0 and 27.
'I* desire, hunger, appetite for. To bind is the
essential idea. Desire is the binding cord. Life,
wrongly interpreted, is the thing desired. When
that false desires are removed, Babylon falls.
Then all evil conditions are changed and the joy
of the Lord is manifested. Briah is the world or
plane associated with the power of desire in crea-
ting mental images.

comments: And I shall tell you." The word "tell"
Agidah, contains an allusion to the esoteric
wisdom. He sought to reveal to them their final
destiny. It may be asked, seeing that he did not
reveal what he sought to reveal, why are his
words, which were afterwards believed, recorded
in the scripture? The truth is that all that was
