It's like droplets from an infinite ocean or rays from infinitely bright light, the droplets or rays in this case get their nature from the origin, but they aren't exactly the origin either. It's a descent from the absolute high (absolute) to a finite existence and division.
It's like that? You know this how? You think this why?
