As the material objects separated by physical force move away from one another, so too do spiritual objects split as a result of the emerging difference in their properties of bestowal. The degree of such a difference determines the spiritual distance between them.
I cannot come close to the Creator by closing the physical distance in our world. I have to bridge the spiritual gap between us. The Creator is not concealed from me. It is simply that because of the lack of equivalence in our attributes, I am remote from the Creator in the spiritual world, and simply cannot feel Him.
