Iniquity nwwo עוון

Not precisely error, iniquity is a precursor to sin. It’s the lip placed upon the cup. This manner of expression is expected in discussions such as this, and I don’t avoid it; but my approach differs somewhat.

 Although its effects are extremely complex, iniquity is the involuntary consequence of the natural dynamics within Creation that make error possible. Iniquity is comparable to the drag of inertia that asserts itself against the photons within a stream of light, causing the light to bend upon itself in spirals that collapse in accretion, as mass piles upon mass. The process that stalls in accretion is responsible for the great variety of atomic and galactic structures.

Without inertia, the diversity displayed in the universe would not exist, nor would differentiation within and between species. We are lulled into puddles of the temporal not because of innate wickedness in our bodies or brains or because of dark emotions arising from our hearts. Neither does error gain power over our us through compulsions that brew within physical manifestations. HaShem has not beheld iniquity in Ya’akov or perverseness in Y’SharAL. Sin is natural.

We fall under the sway of error due to spiritual ambivalence. Our hearts can reach through all these mysteries and grab hold of the sublime if our focus is the creator, not the creation. If we long for a thing to which we do not belong, traps of error are baited, around and about us.

The hidden things of the heavens are reflected in that which has been made on earth. “As above” is indeed “as below,” but in a reverse image: reality is mirrored in the things that are made; and so, if we flounder in our search for the gateway to things above, it’s because we must turn our thinking inside out.

We tread water or fire in the lakes in which we swim, and we’ll not long survive without moving forward. Unless the shore is sighted, we’ll flounder in danger, kicking against suction as iniquity exerts the latent force of its undertow to swallow us.

To entertain iniquity nwwo within the soul is to risk drowning in the belief that, could we develop adequate mechanics or capabilities of thought (which we mistakenly believe to be the child of intelligence), we would then be able to summons— of ourselves, by ourselves, from within ourselves o— the judgmental acuity w that would then make it possible for us to pick, choose, and balance w an efficacious diet for our private lives n.

As masters of our fate o— able to weigh w and to evaluate w the options we enjoy because of merit, it would then be possible for us to sample, at our leisure n, whatever promising nutrients we might happen to stumble upon n as we feast n and feed n to our liking n and to our full n.

Allow me to continue with this specious examination of the emblems that, when read together, are said o to mean “iniquity.” Although over-simplified w, it’s understood that iniquity is a balancing w misconception n, in which opinion o is valued as truth w, persuading us to abandon caution w, even as it ensures a reversal, an overthrow by catapult n.

Whether we enjoy true spiritual vision or are presently wandering, lost among the blind, any progress must come in response to the gift of faith; for our expectations must not deprive us of the efficacious o nourishment w that will come down from heaven. Only when we are properly fed w will we be capable of pursuing righteous development of our fullest potential n.

We are young birds in the nest o. Lacking strong wings w of our own w, we either maintain diligent watch for the assistance HaShem provided in the design of our species, or we fall n.
