A Note on The Lurianic Theory of Creation and Redemption
The Lurianic and Sabbatian Kabbalah teach about a very dynamic process of self explication and self construction of the Absolute which as the process of tikkun (Restoration, or Universal Correction). The process of Tikkun is called "the repairing of the God's Face" because it corrects the existential break, or gap in the Absolute Being as such which is also a moment in His unfolding.
