[Avodah] ain Od Milvado v. Bechira

[Poppers, Michael]

In Avodah V28n62#9, RHB prefaced his question by noting:
> If I understand the concept (chasidically explained to me) of Ain Od Milvado, everything, despite its appearance to us, is really Hashem. This would include trees, tables, chairs, and following the same logic, our Bechira as well. <
As neither a follower of (much less expert in) Hassidic thought/philosophy nor a philosopher, I respond only because no response was published in the subsequent Avodah digest and hesitatingly suggest that "tzimtzum" modifies this concept (Google is your friend: http://www.google.com/m?q=tzimtzum ). 

All the best from
