Fusion through collision refers to the clash between the supernal light, which shines continuously, and a partition, which is the force of resistance of a created being, or vessel, to receiving the supernal light. When the supernal light is rebuffed by the created entity, the fusion through collision produces the returning light, which initiates the process through which a new vessel or entity is created. In this context, “fusion” denotes the merging of two entities, which leads to the formation of a new entity, while “collision” means opposition and rejection. These concepts express the two opposing forces that act upon the partition: opacity (ovyut), which constitutes the will to receive the supernal light, and hardness (kashyut), which is the force of resistance to the light and its repulsion. These two opposing forces act in parallel and cause the vessel to draw the supernal light in on one hand and rebuff it on the other, thus forming the returning light. It is this coupling interaction that gives birth to the new level and partzuf.
