Part 2: TES Lesson With RABASH

Baal HaSulam. Study of the Ten Sefirot. Vol. 2. Part 5.

Reader: We will read from the “Study of the Ten Sefirot” with Rabash. We will read from the “Study of the Ten Sefirot,” Part 5, “Inner Light,” in item 43, from the words "And the reason is that if the fifth light were to come." Before that, we'll read from the “Study of the Ten Sefirot,” the words of The ARI, item 43 in Part 5.

Reading: (00:34) The ARI, Study of the Ten Sefirot

43. After that it returns to being not Matei in Keter and then it is Matei in Hochma. It is also Matei in Bina because of the Hesed there “because He desires mercy.” At that time, it is also Matei in Hesed, for then Hesed descends to his place, and then it is not Matei in Gevura because Gevura ascends with Hesed. At that time, it is Matei in Tifferet and light descends in Tifferet. Then it is not Matei in Netzah, since the light of Netzah ascends with Tifferet. At that time, it is Matei in Hod, since then the vessel of Netzah turns its anterior and gives the three lights to Hod, at which time Hod turns its anterior to Yesod and shines in it.

Reader: Let's go into the lesson with Rabash.

RABASH (Source Text/Commentary): (01:53) The reason is that if the light of the Hey had come before the refinement to phase one, meaning before the time of the descent of Hesed from Bina to the vessel of Hesed, only what? It would have come like the male of Bina, which came at that same level of phase two. There would have been the level of the Hey that was in phase two. Why? Since the coarseness of Bina had not yet been refined to phase one. When? But only when Hesed was given to the vessel of Hesed. Then the phase two of Bina was refined to phase one. If so, what is there? This is what The ARI emphasizes, since there was no strength in Hesed in VAK to receive such great light. For how is it possible that the lights of the level of phase two, which is the Hey, would come and clothe the vessels of VAK, which are phase one? For this reason, Bina was compelled first to be refined from phase two to phase one, at which time the light of Hey was refined to the measure of phase one. Then both emerged, meaning the light of Hesed and the light of Hey, and came to the vessel of Hesed. And that Hey then moved from vessel to vessel until it came to the vessel of Yesod, which is its place. Now, why there, in Bina, can she indeed receive at that same level that emerged in Hochma? Now you can also understand what The ARI answers there. What's written here? I repeat the question. We have phase two of coarseness refined to phase one of coarseness. This is the level of Zeir Anpin. Phase three of coarseness refined to phase two. This is the level of Hochma. Therefore, how does Bina give phase one to Zeir Anpin? Bina was refined from phase two to phase one. This is simple. Now he asks a question. We see that there was a coupling on two phase twos in the vessel of Hochma. At that same level, there was no refinement. It was given to Bina. If so, he asks, why can the light that emerged on two phase twos in the vessel of Bina, which he calls Hey, why can this light that came through the coupling of two phase twos of the Hey not be given to the vessel of Hesed without refinement? Here, if it is a coupling, there was no refinement. It does not need the refinement. Why here is the refinement needed for the light that emerged through the coupling? Answer. There, Bina and Hochma, two phase twos, she can receive the light of phase two, but with phase two and phase one, it cannot receive phase two. Therefore, after the phase two of Bina was refined to phase one, she gives two things to Hesed: one - the phase one she received from Hochma, she gives to Hesed. And the Hey that emerged from her, which now has only the rule of phase one, she gives to the vessel of Hesed. The Hey was born on two phase twos of Bina. For whose sake? For the sake of Zeir Anpin. Slowly, slowly. And from this quality, which is phase two, she cannot give it the Hey. Only what? After Bina was refined to phase one, then she gives this Hey. So, the Hey was also refined. When was the Hey born? On what coarseness?

Student: So, what you're saying is that it's from one, phase one?

RABASH: Incorrect. What you say, from where was it born? It was born from two phase twos. Only what? She cannot give the phase two, the Hey, which was born from two phase twos, until all of Bina is refined. It turns out that this Hey no longer has the rule of phase two; only the rule of phase one. Who causes this? Not the birth, the refinement.

Student: So we need to say that the Hey was refined as well?

RABASH: Yes, this is how, this is what we learn. If so, birth emergence, that is one thing, and giving, that's another thing. And this, this is his question. There, we learn that two phase twos, that the light that makes two phase twos, Bina indeed received it. There was no refinement in between. And here we learn that the light emerged on two phase twos, and it cannot give this light. Until Bina is refined for the sake of the phase one, this is how we learn. So, when Bina was refined for the sake of phase one, it turns out that this Hey no longer has the rule of phase two; only the rule of phase one. Now we must also say that this Hey, which is found in the vessel of Hod, is in the form of phase one. So, let us say that Hod was refined to coarseness of root, which is called the light of Malchut. And at the time that it gives the light of Malchut to the vessel of Yesod, it will also give the Hey to the vessel of Yesod. So, what will it be on what, what level?

Student: Root.

RABASH: Root. And he says this was not how, what happened. So, what happened? Before Hod was refined to coarseness of root, it gave the Hey. Why? This must be learned. I repeat, what does Bina… Not like that. What does Bina have that she must give to Zeir Anpin? I'm asking.

RABASH (Source Text/Commentary): (09:11) We say, the phase one that was refined from the vessel of Hochma and passed to the vessel of Bina, this is considered her son, an offspring. This remains in Bina, while Bina is still phase two. And also, afterwards, she made a coupling of two phase twos, the Hey, also phase two. On the one hand, I can say the Hey was born on two phase twos. Unlike the phase one, the phase one is only phase one. It was not born from two phase twos. I say the opposite once more. The Hey was born from two phase twos. The phase one was born from the refinement of phase two. From this perspective, I would say, which degree is higher? The Hey. He comes and says, no. Why not? It was born from the vessel of Hochma, but there was no refinement there. And here, there was no refinement. Afterwards, we learn now that there is in Bina the light of phase one and the light of phase two - to give to Hesed, it cannot. It is phase two. If it's phase two, what it gives will be at the measure of phase two. And the lower one has no equivalence with phase two. Therefore, after the phase two of Bina was refined to phase one, then she gives two things to Hesed. One, the phase one she received from Hochma, she gives to Hesed. And the Hey also now has only the rule of phase one, and she gives it to the vessel of Hesed.

Student: That was yesterday.

RABASH: He says, like yesterday.

RABASH (Source Text/Commentary): (11:27) Page 331, item 44. It is the same matter in all the VAK, since when the lights are given in them, they turn their interior and shine downward. Since it is precisely the Bina who did not turn her anterior to Hesed, since there is no strength in Hesed to receive the light of Bina. But VAK, however, for themselves, have the ability to receive light from one another. Why? Since all the VAK are equal. We learned that Bina did not turn her anterior to Hesed. What does this mean that specifically Bina did not turn her anterior to Hesed? We learned she did turn her anterior to Hesed. But his intention is, at the time when she did not yet have phase two, why her anterior to give to Hesed before she was refined to phase two? For the refinement from phase two to phase one, yes. Unlike them, they did not have, the quality of all of them is one quality of coarseness. Let's see below. And similarly, the matter in the inner light in all the VAK. Since when the lights are given in them, they turn their anterior and shine downward. Meaning, as it has been written above, this Hey merged by the coupling from the male and female of the vessel of Bina. When Bina was refined from phase two to phase one, to give the light of Hesed in the vessel of Hesed. At that time, the light of this Hey emerged with it too. Hesed gave to Gevura, etc., until she reached the vessel of Hod, and Hod gave to Yesod. It is written, it is the same matter in all the VAK. Since when the lights are given in them, they turn their anterior and shine downward. In other words, that same light of the Hey that came out by a coupling, whose bestowal is always referred to by The ARI as illumination…
