Part 2: Baal HaSulam. Preface to the Hochma of Kabbalah. #81

Reading Item #81 (00:30)

1. S. (02:51) What Reshimot ascended from ZON of AK to Rosh of SAG?

R. Four, three.

S. What are the records of the second restriction?

R. There is still no second restriction, what is he talking about here? You already know the Partzuf of AB of AK is Partzuf Hochma and Partzuf SAG of AK is Partzuf Bina. This means that they are discerned according to the highest phase of their level. AB, whose highest phase is Hochma, is considered as all Hochma, SAG whose highest phase is Bina, is considered all Bina. Thus when the records of ZON of the Guf below Tabur of AK ascended to the Rosh of SAG with their demand that they have to fill their desire, they became MAN to SAG there for which SAG which is Bina coupled with Partzuf of AB which is Hochma. Subsequently, AB imparted to SAG a new light for the purpose of ZON below the Tabur that ascended there. Once ZON of AK received this new light, they descended back to their place below the Tabur of VAK, where there are the ten Sefirot of Nekudim and they shone their new light inside the ten Sefirot of Nekudim, this is the Mochin of Gadlut.

S. Why was the second restriction? Why did it happen?

R. The second restriction was done because the desire that was more than the screen. Now, I'm speaking simply with you. This is why he had to restrict himself and not use his desire.

S. So the Nekudot of SAG got an impression from NHY of AK. What was that impression, on which records?

R. Four.

S. So that was what the restriction was upon?

R. This is why the restriction was done at the Nekudot of SAG.

S. How was that phase four, the impression was that it wasn't worthy to receive because it's in order to receive, right?

R. Right.

S. So the Rosh of SAG it’s the same phase four?

R. No, the records of four, three, that were there but when Nekudot of SAG descended below Tabur and mixed with what was below Tabur they received from there a new desire too, four/three. And these four, three which mingled with Nekudot of SAG were restricted.

S. So why do they ascend to the Rosh of SAG?

R. Their deficiency remains a deficiency and they want to receive the powers and the fillings.

S. But now there’s a second restriction, they can't receive?

R. They're not coming to receive, they're coming to receive screens, they're coming to receive powers.

S. So what's the difference between four, three where the second restriction took place and the same records that go to Rosh of SAG to accept new screens?

R. What state are you talking about?

S. Is it the same thing, is it the same record of phase four? That he got an impression, now there’s a second restriction and rose to Rosh of SAG, it’s the same phase four?

R. Four is a record of a desire in Galgalta in the NHY of AK.

S. Right. And when now Nekudot of SAG goes below the Tabur do they get an impression from that same four?

R. They want to fill that Partzuf that there is below the Tabur.

S. Right. So then what impression do they get, which record?

R. From the records of four that are there.

S. And the second restriction was on that? So now that same four, what happens to that record that was restricted with the second restriction?

R. Remains uncorrected.

S. So now when he's speaking in this item about being a record in ZON that ascends to Rosh of SAG, which record is that?

R. It’s a record of ZON that ascends to Rosh of SAG, it’s a record of Nekudot of SAG.

S. Meaning four?

R. No, where is there four there?

S. It got an impression from four that was in NHY of AK.

R. I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Which Partzuf?

S. Nekudot of SAG descended below the Tabur and got an impression from NHY of AK.

R. It received from NHY of AK four, three.

S. So that four on three, what happens with it?

R. Now it ascends to the Rosh of SAG.

S. How? It was just restricted with the second restriction?

R. Nekudot of SAG is Bina who feels that now she has a new desire, an addition of desire and she wants to use it. She elevates it to the Rosh of her Partzuf.

S. But the way she uses it is determined as a restriction, the second restriction, that's the way she uses it because it's vessels of reception.

R. But she ascends to the Rosh of SAG to receive screens.

S. On the same record she restricted?

R. When did she perform the restriction?

S. One action before that. In the second restriction she restricted the record of the phase four. Now the same record, as I understood, ascends to Rosh of SAG to receive screens. That's what I didn't understand so I'm asking.

R. Why don't we read and from this we will understand. Item 82 right, 81? Read 81 again.

Reading Item # 81 (10:20)

2. S. (12:22) If we understood correctly what he writes here is that the records of ZON ascended to SAG, that’s raising MAN. He raises to AB to ask for correction then he brings a new light and that new light is called Gadlut and then there's the shattering of the vessels. How can it be that he performs some kind of action that causes a shattering?

R. There's no such thing as causing the shattering, we will learn it later. What caused the breaking of the vessel we will learn later, it’s not that simple.

S. Is that a bad action or essential to reach Gmar Tikkun? I’m thinking it’s essential?

R. Yes, he will soon elaborate on this, we will learn.

3. S. (13:23) Every Partzuf has a Rosh, Toch, and Sof and there's a Tabur that limits the light of Taamim. So is that also Nekudot of SAG, does it have Sof? Meaning is there a limitation on the light expanding before it reaches below in the Rosh, was there some kind of limitation determined?

R. No.

S. That's why it expanded all the way down?

R. Yes.

S. So instead of a Sof being determined during the coupling, so only when it reaches four, three it stops, it stops its expansion?

R. Yes.

S. So is there a state that it did go down all the way and then go back up and from that it got the impression of four, three?

R. This is the second restriction.

S. Yes but before it tasted the four, three?

R. Where?

S. That's what I'm asking, did it go all the way down?

R. There was no light of Hochma there, four, three is a..

S. So where did it get four, three from if it didn't go down there? Because when it rises and reaches Rosh of SAG..?

R. They’re records.

S. But where did it get it? It’s Bet, it doesn't have any..?

R. For itself it is two, but it's connected to AB, SAG. In the end it came out from above in the Tabur.

S. So these records aren’t from the impression it had below the Tabur?

R. No, what impression does he have there? So are we in 81 or 82?

Reading Item # 82 twice (15:26)

Reading Item # 83 twice (17:36)

4. S. (21:39) What is complete VAK? What’s the difference between..?

R. VAK of Bina, the six edges of Bina are the bottom half of Bina where there’s the will to receive which is not natural for Bina, it’s just how it works so that Bina can connect with the lower ones and bestow upon them. Therefore in Bina you have two parts, an upper part which is Bina herself desiring mercy in every way and the bottom half of Bina which is no longer desiring mercy, it wants to receive from above but in order to give to her children below. That’s the role of Bina.

S. And complete VAK?

R. Complete VAK is already Zeir Anpin.

5. S. (22:46) The Katnut of Nekudim that comes out, does that somehow cause Gadlut?

R. Well Katnut, [infancy] is normally a preparation for Gadlut, for adulthood, from it Gadlut has to come out. Katnut and Gadlut are different only in the coarseness of the screen, as from a small child you have the big child. In the end it’s the same person who grew up.

S. He writes that Malchut ascended to Bina and then the coarseness wasn’t obvious there and that's why it started with Katnut. But then phase four is already there somehow, or not?

R. No, we still don't feel it. Bina still doesn't feel that she has phase four, she has only a desire to expand in the lower ones.

S. So there's still not a force of a screen that extends the light of Gadlut?

R. No, no, no, it's raising of records, raising of MAN. We will have several more items about that.

S. So Katnut causes the coupling on the records of four, three or not?

R. No, Katnut itself cannot awaken Gadlut. Katnut gives the preparation.

S. So what is the preparation exactly?

R. By building the Gadlut. But the Gadlut is already different records which for now are not apparent there.

S. He writes that the light of Gadlut passes through or it’s invited with ZON of AK and through it it reaches Nekudim and causes Gadlut?

R. Yes.

S. Can you explain what that means?

R. NHY of AK wants the light of Hochma to the fullest.

S. But they always want it, so why suddenly now?

R. Now you have a chance, a possibility to receive it.

S. What is that chance? What is that condition that wasn't there before?

R. To awaken a record.

S. Who awakens it?

R. I would say it’s the whole of Partzuf Nekudim.

S. So the smallness of Nekudim is part of this process anyway. Now there’s an ability..?

R. Of course it's connected, that's why it's possible to awaken them and for them to demand Gadlut.

S. And what does it mean that the light passes through ZON of AK and then reaches Nekudim? Supposedly the Partzuf of Nekudim is Bina, it awakens it, so?

R. It is and NHY of AK is Keter, everything passes through it.

S. I see, okay.

R. Well, we’ll continue.

Reading #84 “Therefore, now ZON of AK below Tabur extended the….”Twice (26:30)

6. S. (30:41) This phase four that disappeared and now suddenly exists?

R. Yes, phase four is only the will to receive that exists in these vessels. Now it demands the filling.

S. So how does it happen, because of the type of light that she received now?

R. Yes.

7. S. (31:12) You said that the Rosh of AB has no interest, no connection to the second restriction, that’s why the light that it passed to SAG is the light of the first restriction if I understand correctly. And then what happened is what we learned, what happened was the Gadlut of Nekudim. Where is Rosh of SAG in this calculation, why is he talking about Rosh of AB?

R. Because they’re demanding Hochma so what can Rosh of SAG do? Rosh of SAG supplies Hassadim and here the vessels want Hochma in this case. I can only say one thing, until the world of Nekudim everything is clear, everybody's wise and there's no problem. From the world of Nekudim there are already two directions in development. In Gadlut and Katnut, Hassadim and Hochma, here it's a problem already. If we learn even deeper, so there are the three lines there and three Reshem, there's a lot of additions.

For now we’re studying in a way that we can understand the process, the process itself because it belongs to all of creation and it still doesn't have anything to do with our world at all. But this is the system that builds itself in order to be able to control all the vessels that are below it, meaning below Tabur. It’s all simple because everybody understands it. Galgalta, AB, SAG, upper MA, upper BON. Below the Tabur we need to build a system that will take care of the vessels that are below the Tabur because there is where the correction takes place and the end of correction, it’s all below the Tabur. So we are studying it slowly. It’s good that we feel that we don't understand it so much, we already have to finish this part.

8. S. (34:10) Can you explain the matter of coarseness of phase four disappearing because of the influence of Bina? What happens there?

R. Bina and Malchut are connected together and they work in that connection between them. Bina needs to add forces to Malchut and Malchut has to add desires to Bina and in this way they work together in parallel, Malchut and Bina in order to attain the complete correction.

S. And that transition from that state when that coarseness disappears to a state where there is suddenly raising of MAN from the same records, what happens here between the two?

R. When Bina shines, Malchut receives a desire to raise MAN and she then asks from Keter for forces to have an ability to raise MAN from Malchut to Bina. And Bina raises it to Keter, gets forces, lowers them below and then the world of correction begins which is the world of Atzilut.

9. S. (35:58) He mentions before that the place determines. In two, one it was in Nikvey Eynaim and then in four, three, after the impression it went down to the Peh again. Can you explain the difference of descending? What does it mean that the place determines it? What is the difference between Nikvey Eynaim and the Peh of Rosh of SAG?

R. Wherever the screen is working, wherever the screen is demanding. Whether it’s demanding Gadlut or Katnut, [greatness or smallness] Hassadim or Hochma. That’s the difference between Nikvey Eynaim and Peh.

10. S. (36:54) Why is each Sefira called after its upper one?

R. That's in her.

S. In her, right.

R. Each one has an upper one but in her, right, because that upper one determines the character of all other Sefirot.

S. Why if I'm a person and almost smart, right? If I am a person am I also smart?

R. I don't know, I never learned something like that.

S. One thing is for sure, the Creator created a wonder, the Garden of Eden and the condition for attaining this Garden of Eden is being man. What does it mean to be a man?

R. Similar to the Creator. Let's go to the next part of the lesson.
