520 |a This paper discusses the psychoanalytic concept of narcissism and the Kabbalistic understanding of how man is viewed in relationship to God. If God is considered to be both nothingness and everythingness, and man follows a pattern of trying to be like the Creator, Imatio Deo, then this has major implications for man's sense of self.

We arrive at a more complete exposition of the egoistic or narcissistic self.
