Translations:Adam Kadmon/3/en

From TSL Encyclopedia

Some Kabbalists teach that when the sefirot emanated from Ein Sof, they first took the form of Adam Kadmon. Kabbalists describe him as “the concealed shape of the Godhead itself.”[1] Adam Kadmon is androgynous; in him the male and female forces are in complete harmony and balance.
