Part 2: Study of the Ten Sefirot" (TES) - Passover
Baal HaSulam. "Study of the Ten Sefirot" (TES). Part 15, Item 7

Original lesson date: 04/13/2016

Reader: (00:04) We, as a preparation for Passover, are going to connect to a lesson with the Rav from The Study of The Ten Sefirot, part 15, item 7. 

_______________________________

Reader: We're studying from The Study of the Ten Sefirot, Volume 6, Part 15: The Construction of Nukvot de Zeir Anpin. We're also on page 1693, Item 7, The Words of the ARI. 

Reading: (01:04) 

Indeed between this and that, there are many Bechinot, many discernments, and between all of them, there are four Bechinot, 

M. Laitman: Meaning between the state of the beginning of Nukvot, which is a single point until it reaches to be as Zeir Anpin; equal to him, equal in height. Until then, there are many discernments in her changing forms, so we learned that it's seven, and here it says four, so you can count it like this or like that. 

Reading: (01:40) 

And this is the order from below upward. One, the purpose of the diminution is that she will be a point included from ten, and this is the Bechinot of Malchut in her, and then she has no parts of, and then she stands below his Yesod.

M. Laitman: This is Malchut of the lights, Keter of the vessels, clear, right? And then she's tied to its Yesod. Go on. 

Reading: (02:14) The words of the ARI, Item 8. 

The second is, while she is a complete Partzuf in ten Sefirot, but the measure of her degree is in the Achor and the posterior of Zeir Anpin from Chazeh and below. But still, her lights that the first five of Zeir Anpin has, HBD HGT, did not illuminate to his bottom four, and therefore they were not extended to her, and they did not illuminate her and understand. 

(02:45) Item 9. 

The third is, while she receives her light from the first five of Zeir Anpin, 

M. Laitman: Meaning above its Chazeh, 

Reading: (02:55) And then she grows like him, 

M. Laitman: Meaning from the state that she is below the Chazeh, she rises above. 

Reading: (03:03) 

Only all that is still the Bechinot of lights, Achor be-Achor, back to back, and thus there are three Bechinot in the Bechinah of Achor.

And the reason why there are no four Bechinot in the Achor, in the posterior, is also because the Keter is not apparent, but only in the panim. And that has three Bechinot in Achor. 

(03:28) Item 10. 

There are also four Bechinot in panim be-panim, face to face, which are, the first is that she will be complete Partzuf of panim be-panim, rather the measure of her degree is from Chazeh and below Zeir Anpin. And still her lights of the Bechinot. Panin that there are in the first five of Zeir Anpin did not extend to illuminate in her. And thus, the first Bechinah, which is that she will also be a Bechinah of one point included from ten, corresponding the Yesod, Panim be-Panim, face to face, this is not the place to explain it, and it will be explained elsewhere in the meaning of the morning prayer. 

Item 11. 

The second is that the first five of Zeir Anpin illuminated in her from above, but still he is from Chazeh and below, and then he goes down to his Netzach, and she goes up to his Hod in the name Bohu, and he bows his degree and performs a Zivug with her there.

Item 12. 

The third is that she will be as great as him in his measure of degree, face to face, and she will receive the lights of the first five while she is there above with them. Indeed, she still does not receive her lights but only through Zeir Anpin, and his Keter will be greater than her Keter because he is greater and higher above her Keter. 

Item 13. 

It turns out that the Malchut in her does not have a partner correspondingly in the Zachar, in the male, because she is below his Yesod.

Therefore, she needs that his Malchut in her will be below the level of his degree, and then she needs to receive through him, and then her upper Malchut does not have a partner, and he rose until her Yesod, and they are included there together in general, as known. And then she will be able to receive from the Yesod of Zeir Anpin. It turns out that in that Bechinah, in that aspect, the Partzuf has upper nine Sefirot in her only, because the tenth in her is included in her Yesod, and then also his Keter is higher than hers.

Item 14. 

The fourth is that she too will be using one Keter like him, and she will receive her lights from Ima herself, and not through Zeir Anpin, like Abba and Ima. And she will be complete in all ten Sefirot, and that is the purpose of her growth. 

M. Laitman: So we've heard here the stages that Malchut grows until the end of correction. Going back to Item 7, right? 

Reader: (06:52) 

Again, the words of the Ari above, item 7, however, between this and that, there are many Bechinot, and between all of them, there are four Bechinot, and this is their order from above downward.

One, the purpose of her diminution is that she will be a point included from ten, and she is the Bechinah of her Malchut. And then she has no Partzuf, and she stands below his Yesod. 

M. Laitman: That's clear, right? Questions? 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (07:26) He describes here a process which Malchut is going through. What is the purpose of that process? 

M. Laitman: End of correction. 

Student: What is wrong in her initial state, can you explain? 

M. Laitman:  I have nothing to explain, Malchut is a point, she is, all in all, what she has in sanctity, and not on her own account, but on what she gets as a point in the heart, you see? And the entire heart is below Parsa, and then she needs to bring her entire heart to sanctity above Parsa, to include all of these Kelim in Bina, and then more so in Hochma, and then even more so in Keter. Like it says here, Until there would be two Malchim in one Keter. 

Student: How is it related to the complaint of the moon? 

M. Laitman: I don't know about that now; It's your personal question. Anyone want to ask about what it says, here? It's not the first time that I'm cutting you off with your questions – try and ask what we're learning, and not what you feel like knowing, period. More? None? OK, let's continue.

Reading: Inner Light, Item 7, Second Column. 

There are four Bechinot and  this is the order from below upward and so on. It started with four Bechinot and it concludes with seven. Indeed, there is an abbreviation of language here.

And the thing is that the Ari considered it in general, the general Bechinah that is applied in every complete Bechinah, which is divided into four parts. One is Ibur, which is NHY and Nefesh. The second is Yenikah, which is HGT and Ruach.

The third is Mochin, which is HBD and GAR. The fourth is Keter. And these four Bechinot apply either in the degrees of Achor or the degrees of Panim.

And also in Mochin of YESHSUT and Mochin of the Abba and Ima. Except for the degree of Keter, which does not apply to the parts of Achor. And the Bechinah of Ibur, which is NHY, the Ari includes it in the Bechinah of a point under the Yesod.

Because from that perspective, from that Bechinah, the Ibur starts. And the Bechinah of Yenikah is called by the Ari as clothing from Chazeh and below of Zeir Anpin. Because then the Nukvah has ten Sefirot, which are called HGT NHY.

And now she has two Partzufim, Ibur and Yenikah, which clothe one inside the other. And the Bechinah of Gadlut and Mochin, the Ari calls it by the name, the first five Sefirot of Zeir Anpin, meaning HBD and HGT and the middle third of Tifferet and the upper third of Tifferet until the Chazeh, which she attains only by attaining her Partzuf of Gadlut, which is called Partzuf of Mochin. And then the illumination of Keter is the fourth Bechinah.

M. Laitman: These stages in general, are they clear, yes? Okay, let's continue. So we have a point, Ibur, Yenikah, Mochin and Keter. Is that okay or not? Go on.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (11:27) How come the Bechinah of Ibur is over NHY? These are vessels of reception. These are the courses, the thickest Kelim. 

M. Laitman: Right because we're talking about the three lines. NHY and HBD and HGT and Keter. You can divide it that way as well. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (11:54) I did not understand what he wrote here.

M. Laitman: Very good, next. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (12:11) All these Bechinot are the Bechinot of Achor, Posterior. These are all development. 

M. Laitman: Of Posterior, meaning receiving of the vessels and Posterior, the face, is receiving of the lights. He can't talk about it all in one go, you're right, but now he's only talking about these stages, these four stages that the Nukvah has, which is the Will to  Receive, which has a little of an inclusion with the Bina. Are you listening? When you say you don't understand anything. Will to Receive, do you understand what it is, no? You have a will to receive, okay; it has some slight integration with the Bina, with the will to bestow. We're learning now how this big will to receive can correct itself if it has a slight grasp of Bina, of Bestowal, how it can correct itself to be entirely to Bestow, meaning in order to Bestow. So, it's been said that it takes, that it happens in four stages, which is Ibur and Mochin – or NHY, HGT, HBD. And the points of Keter, meaning four stages altogether in order to come from the worst possible state to the best possible state. All in all four stages, is that clear? Yes, so you don't need to know anything else. Go on, let's continue. What else is he adding here? 

Reader: (13:52) From a second, column below, on page Alef Tav Resh Tzadik Gimel. 

And the Partzuf of Mochin, which the Ari calls by the name, the first five Sefirot, he divides it into two Bechinot. The first is Mochin de YESHSUT, which apply in Chol, in weekdays.

And he calls them by the name, the illumination of the first five, which illuminates from above downward, below the Chazeh of Zeir Anpin. But the Nukvah does not receive them in their place above. And the second is Mohin de Abba ve Ima, which apply on Shabbat in Musaf.

And he calls them by the name of receiving the first five in their place above. 

M. Laitman: Through this involvement of above, awakening from above. There are changes here that depend on the lower one or the upper one, in what forms. But all of this is in order to mix Malchut with Bina, in such ways that the Malchut will finally receive the form of Bina, the presence of Bina, to bestow, right? So there are different actions on the Malchut. 

Reading: And the reason why they are called so is because the Mohin of YESHSUT are not enough at all for Mohin of birth for Zeir Anpin himself.

M. Laitman: Because they don't have a lot of Hochma. A lot of Hassadim cannot give birth. 

Reading: 

And they are regarded in him as the Bechinah of VAK de Gadlut, because he needs Mochin of the upper Abba ve Ima, like in Shabbat in Musaf.

And then he has the Bechinah of Chaya, as known. 

M. Laitman: Before that, just Neshama. 

Reading: And since YESHSUT are the Bechinah of VAK, the Abba ve Ima, 

M. Laitman: ZAT of Bina

Reading: Therefore the Mochin of YESHSUT are regarded for him as the Bechinah of the true VAK of his Gadlut, and not the actual Mohin.

Yet those Mohin are the true Mohin for Yaakov and Rachel. 

M. Laitman: This is the part of Katnut of ZON. 

Reading: Because Chaya of YESHSUT is regarded for them as the actual Chaya. And they are worthy of Zivug of Mohin of Holada, procreation. 

M. Laitman: Because they themselves are small. 

Reading: And therefore, this Zivug of Yaakov and Rachel, by this Mohin 

M. Laitman: of YESHSUT, 

Reading: Is regarded that Zeir Anpin bows his Rosh to the place of his HGT, 

M. Laitman: From above Chazeh to below Chazeh, 

Reading: Where Yaakov stands, 

M. Laitman: Below Chazeh of Zeir Anpin.

Reading: And by this, the Mohin of YESHSUT, which Zeir Anpin received, are imparted to Rosh of Yaakov. And Yaakov performs a Zivug with Nukvah of Zeir Anpin. 

M. Laitman: Rachel,

Reading: And this is why the ARI names those Mohin that the Nukvah receives from Yaakov by the name of the illumination of the first five from Chazeh and below.

M. Laitman: Named after the action of Zeir Anpin. 

Reading: Meaning, Zeir Anpin bows his first five and imparts them to Yaakov. 

M. Laitman: That he's standing below his Tabur.

Reading: And the Nukvah receives from him. 

M. Laitman: From Yaakov, then is called Rachel.

Reading: However, in Mohin de Abba ve Ima of Shabbat, 

M. Laitman: Where there is already a true illumination of Hochma, 

Reading: Which are the true Mohin de Chaya for Zeir Anpin himself. And therefore, he does not have to bow his Rosh below. Rather, he performs a Zivug with the Nukvah in his own degree.

M. Laitman: Above Chazeh. 

Reading: And it turns out that the Nukvah takes the five Sefirot of Zeir Anpin from their place in Zeir Anpin. And what the ARI says, that the first five illuminate to the Chazeh and below, it does not mean to the Bechinah of the new NHY of Zeir Anpin, which he obtained by Mohin of YESHSUT. Rather, it means the old NHY of Zeir Anpin. Where is the place of Yaakov and Rachel as known. 

M. Laitman: They are standing below Chazeh of Zeir Anpin.

Reading: And this NHY became now, during the Mohin of YESHSUT, the Bechinah of HGT. It turns out that Zeir Anpin bows his Rosh and illuminates only to the Bechinah of HGT and not to the new NHY, which he has now obtained. Since this whole ascent of NHY to HGT is only for Yaakov, which is the one that receives from this Mohin, and not in the value of Zeir Anpin himself. 

M. Laitman: It's all clothing that Zeir Anpin does on himself, it's additional parts of him on him. 

Reading: Therefore, the ARI calls them by the name NHY from Chazeh and below, because with respect to Zeir Anpin himself, they are regarded as NHY, as explained, for he has no part in those Mohin.

Now you can thoroughly understand the seven degrees that the ARI counts here. The first is a point included from ten, and then she stands under his Yesod. 

M. Laitman: Talking about the Malchut, the stages through which it grows.

Reading: Meaning the Bechinah of the first Ibur, meaning when she comes to a point under the Yesod, the first Ibur begins, which is the Bechinah of NHY, meaning the Partzuf of Ibur of Achor. 

M. Laitman: Again, the last part. Now you can thoroughly understand the seven degrees that the ARI considers here.

The first is a point included from ten, and then she stands below his Yesod, meaning the Bechinah of the first Ibur, meaning when she comes to the point under the Yesod, begins the first Ibur, which is the Bechinah of NHY, meaning the Partzuf of Ibur of Achor. 

M. Laitman: Meaning building the vessels of Malchut is called, Ibur d'Achor. The beginning of forming the vessels for Malchut, which is a point. So her vessels are called, d'Achor, posterior, and it's only the beginning called, Ibur, Ibur d'Achor, the conception of the posterior. How is this action made, it starts where, where from? From Malchut being included in Yesod of Zeir Anpin. How do you imagine that? That Malchut is included in Yesod of Zeir Anpin? Let's think about this together. Go ahead. Go on. Zeir Anpin is the upper one. Malchut, that can annul to it, right? It is included in him, in Yesod, it gathers all the qualities of Zeir Anpin in order to bestow.

Malchut can subjugate itself under the influence of the upper one to annul itself. It can enter a state of Ibur, of conception. Meaning the lower one, which is like a drop of semen, is included in the upper one, and for him the upper one is everything, and from that Malchut begins to grow. Okay? I wish this for you! I think, let's read onwards, just to recognize that these are the stages, that Malchut, which is a will to receive that which is created, to see how it grows, and takes this form of bestowal, which is the Creator, that's all it speaks about. Don't be confused and think that it's something – we're only talking... We're just talking about that in more detail, okay? Yes, just don't confuse us. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (22:29) What you just explained, is it Keter de Kelim with Malchut of lights? 

M. Laitman: Malchut is the Keter of its vessels, correct, and the Malchut of the lights.

Student: The same Yesod. 

M. Laitman: The Nefesh of the lights, which is now included in Yesod of Zeir Anpin. It annuls itself, and that's how it's included in Yesod of Zeir Anpin.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (23:20) What's the difference between the new NHY to the old NHY? I don't know. I don't know, period. I now don't know. I don't think it's necessary immediately. Malchut is included in Yesod of Zeir Anpin. That's her first stage of growing properly. Think about that. 

Reader: Let's go to the next part of the lesson.
