From the developmental point of view, there is no difference at all between Kindness (right) and Judgment (left), for Gevurah (left-leaning) emerges from Chessed (right-leaning) and is beneath it, just as Netzach (right-leaning) emerges from Tiferet (center) and is beneath it. What this means is that when examining the developmental aspect, we do not take into account a particular Sefirah’s action in terms of its own distinctive quality.
Rather, we consider the level of this Sefirah in terms of how near to or far from the Source it is. From this point of view, the distinctive qualities of this particular level are not evident in detail but only in a general way as part of the overall providence. Thus the underlying form of the circle is like a sphere that is completely round and does not divide into parts, for you cannot say it has a head, top or beginning, or a bottom or end, or a middle, right or left.
