"But why then are we trapped in this apparent world of time
and space? Why do we believe our boundaries? Why does the divine Source bother
to create such an elaborate fantasy? The answers to these questions are best
summarized by the beautiful statement from the Kabbala: “people need God and
God needs people”. It seems that being Eternal and Infinite can be a bit
boring. Or that even God can get lonely, and crave a playmate. Or that God is
like a great artist or inventor, with so much creative talent that it simply
must make things. Creation begins when, once upon a time, on the still surface
of perfection, an urge or desire for something else bubbles up, like a wrinkle
in timelessness. And from this wrinkle, the created world, a sub-division of
infinity, begins."
