In many traditions, the universe is represented as a mountain, on the summit of which the Divinity has his dwelling, inaccessible and inviolate. The Greeks situated their gods on the top of Mount Olympus, and Moses spoke to God on Mount Horeb. Initiates have always made use of this symbol of the summit, even in countries where there were no high mountains.
The quest for the summit is the most important and most meaningful endeavor a human being can undertake. It means he is conscious that the forces and virtues brought together in him by the Creator can lead him beyond all earthly realizations. In the Cabbalah, the Tree of Life can be compared to a mountain whose summit is the sephirah Kether, the all powerful, the all-knowing, divine love. To reach this summit, great qualities are necessary: tenacity, willpower, stability, intelligence, daring and, above all, an irresistible desire for light and purity. These qualities are represented by the other sephiroth, from Malkuth to Chokmah.
Sephiroth Tree… still symbolizes the word of the Lord often chooses a tree [or a burning bush to make its voice heard “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God.” John 1:1
Malkuth is the Divine Kingdom, just a blackout and a certain blindness of our minds does not allow us to see this, see it as a body of God, only mystics, lovers, poets, artists, and especially children can see the reality of Malkuth for what it is. Chokmah is the sacred fire of the Holy Spirit.
