There are other ways that we may indirectly receive G-d's wisdom. Although it may seem indirect it has the ability to penetrate one's being in a very deep way unique to this process. This is our relationship to the Tzaddikim. Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai and his son Rabbi Eliazer, whose gravesites are depicted in the painting, were the compilers of some of the earliest Kabbalistic books "The Zohar". It is customary to visit their gravesties as well as the gravesites of many other Tzaddikim. By praying to G-d in the merit of their deeds and the deep wisdom of the Torah that they revealed in their lifetime, one may gain deep insight and personal guidance. So too when we humbly connect to a living Tzaddik by tapping the Naftali part within, that part of the personality which is able to receive direction from another, there is a bottomless wellspring of wisdom which may be received. The soul of a Tzaddik serves as a guiding connection to higher consciousness.

The deer in this painting who are drinking out of the inverted crown, symbolize the receiving of wisdom from a Tzaddik. The inverted crown as well as the other reflections in the painting symbolize that the advice of teh Tzaddikim are a reflection of the Divine Will.

However, one must take this wisdom and integrate it into his/her being by eventually returning to the Yehuda dimensions and tapping one's personal malchut - the place where all parts of the personality and all input have reached a harmonious balance.
