Reading item #20 (00:18) "The thing is that in this manner" (Twice)
Reading Inner Light item 20
1. S. (18:43) We actually read how the Nekudim are made that's the Nekudot of SAG right
R. The Nekudim is not the Nekudot of SAG.
S. It's not clear it says the Guf is from the Chazeh of the Tabur so what are we talking about?
R. That's the world of Nekudim but the Nekudot of SAG is a different Partzuf.
S. Can you explain what we're talking about so that it'll be more or less clear in words that we know better?
R. There is SAG, there is Nekudot of SAG, and there is a part of SAG that is called the world of Nekudim, and these three Partzufim seemingly exist as a part of one another.
S. We've read about the world of Nekudim, and to where does it expand compared to the Tabur that we know of AK?
R. It expands below the Tabur of AK
S. Why does he write that the Guf is from the Chazeh until the Tabur
R. Yes
S. What Tabur is he talking about?
R. Chazeh to the Tabur of Nekudot of SAG
S. That is actually?
R. What is that actually? compared to AK
S. The world of Nekudim does not compared to AK to AK
R. The world of Nekudim does not belong to AK, the World of Nekudim emerges from the NE of SAG and expands below that.
S. But it's an external Partzuf to AK
R. Yes.
S. Compared to AK we somehow adapted to close on AK so what is the Tabur of the world of Nekudim begins below that.
R. What does he want and where does what He wants written?
S. He wants to understand what is the Chazeh and Tabur that we just talked about compared to what is the Tabur of AK?
R. Tabur of AK is Tabur of Galgalta, the world of dots begins below that, where is the beginning of this matter.
R. The light of eyes extended there, and expanded in them the GAR in them is taken from the… of AHP from a place until the Tabur they connected in the place of the Shibbolet HaZakan, that is where all of the lights connect, Although they only receive them in the Shibbolet HaZakan and that's where they begin the lower seven points they are not taken from where it extends from the looking of the lights of Hotem and Peh and Shibbolet HaZakan and down, if you want we will have to read again all of the text.
S. What Inner Light or to start from the ARI?
R. Maybe we will continue.
It turns out before that the three Nekudot take the illumination for their vessels, from the three lights that are AHP, in the Shibbolet HaZakan specifically, and the lower seven only take from the two lights only which are Hotem and Peh, from Shibbolet HaZakan and down all the way to the Tabur, because the light of the upper Ozen and it was it completed in the Shibbolet HaZakan and therefore it is greater, the illumination of the three upper to the lower seven, this the ARI writes and we can read it below.
Reading Inner Light item 21 (24:48) Three vessels are are discerned from Tabur up…"
2. S. (30:15) There's a principal here that appeared in inner light of item 20, he says you know that three phases are in every Partzuf that extend the light of Einayim, two phases Rosh of Guf are the 10 Sefirot of the Rosh itself and the third phase is the actual Guf. I wanted to ask about that structure of two Rosh that the Rosh is divided into Rosh and Guf and then the actual Guf comes.
R. Yes
S. The Rosh that is divided into Rosh and Guf within the Rosh, what does it mean that the Rosh divides into Rosh of Guf?
R. Wherever the light of Hochma can expand expand the GAR.
S. The lower part of the Guf, what does it do?
R. It has lights in the Rosh and therefore it expands to the Guf.
S. What's its duty, the simple role of the Rosh?
R. It's the first three, KHB, and the relation, the attitude of Creator to the created being. Where the created being reveals is called the Rosh of the created being.
S. This relation leads him to calculate?
R. Yes.
S. Then to work in its Guf?
R. Yes.
S. The role of the Rosh is to learn the Creator’s attitude towards me, to calculate like He does and then to work in my Guf, that's in general. Now specifically when the Rosh is divided into the two parts, Rosh and Guf in the Partzufim of the light of the Einayim.
R. That is already in order to function.
S. What is the new innovation here?
R. What's new here is that the Rosh needs or must arrange the Guf of the Partzuf. How it responds to that which he gets to know the Creator and how he now wants to resemble Him.
S. That's the role of all of the Roshim in general. That's always right what you said right? That's what they do.
R. Let's say.
S. They learn how the Creator relates and they want to do the same thing.
R. Yes, but where it's capable.
S. Now after the second restriction there are Partzufim that come out with a more complex structure that the Rosh itself is divided into two parts, Rosh and the Guf of the Rosh.
What does that lower part, the Guf of the Rosh, what does it do? It's like a new invention that never appeared, right? Until now there was only Rosh and Guf. Suddenly the Rosh into divided into two parts of the Rosh. The lower part of the Rosh, the Guf of the Rosh what does it add essentially that wasn't there before? It's like a new feature. What happens here?
R. It becomes as the Guf for the Rosh, that's it Guf of Rosh.
S. What is the Guf of Rosh?
R. Here we have a new matter, that the Rosh divides into two, Rosh of the Guf and the Rosh of the Rosh. Hence we have here onward already, this is what he's telling us here in the Partzufim of Se’arot.
S. We now that have a Rosh that is divided into two parts, Rosh of Rosh and Guf of Rosh. Afterwards the Guf itself will come. Every part in the Rosh, the Rosh of the Rosh and the Guf of the Rosh, what are their roles?
R. Guf of Rosh or..
S. Rosh of Rosh.
R. Rosh of the Rosh belongs to the whole Partzuf.
S. What is Guf of Rosh?
R. The Guf of the Rosh is the one that observes the commands.
S. The actual Guf?
R. The actual Guf belongs to this Partzuf in a manner.
S. It's like an adapter between the Rosh of Rosh to the Guf?
R. Yes.
S. What does he do, what is he renewing that wasn't there before?
R. Prior to that you didn't have the second restriction there are many additional things here specifically due to the weakness.
S. What is it adding because of the weakness? What is the innovation in the Rosh because of the weakness and what does it allow it?
R. It adds to the Guf the ability to nevertheless remain somewhat connected to the Rosh.
S. With thanks to what?
R. Thanks to giving the Guf the feeling of in what manner it is lesser than the Rosh and the Guf finds there in the Rosh, wants to find in the Rosh the parts that can now be for it a Rosh in the current state.
S. Is it a weak state, you said weakness.
R. Yes of course.
S. This addition compensates the weakness?
R. It divides between the parts that can be connected and can’t be connected in the current state and then the Partzuf can seemingly remain somewhat connected to the Rosh.
S. That's the addition of holiness that you're scrutinizing and even though there's a weakness I can still be connected to the Rosh?
R. Yes.
In Item 20, Inner light he writes: (37:58) " The second phase of Partzuf of Nekudim.."
