Reading "Study of the Ten Sefirot" (TES). Vol. 1. Part 4. Inner Observation. Chapter Two. #16 Chapter Two. #16 You must understand here that we have no perception… (00:32)
1. S. (04:00) It's not really clear what he says from what I understand he's talking about the reflected light building the Malchut
R. Yes.
S. Then he says that the reflected light as if arranged has the Malchut and further he says that what we attain is the direct light that enters the body so how did these two things coincide on the one hand the Malchut arranges the reflected light on the other hand the reflected light is closed in it and enters the body, Guf.
R. The reflected light is the same reaction of Malchut that it wants to return to the Creator, to become similar to connect to the Creator this is called the reflecting light that comes from inside After it does this then connection is made between the attitude of the Creator to the creature and the attitude of the creature Malchut to the Creator and this is how the Toch inside of the Partzuf is filled.
S. These parts of the Malchut, Rosh, Guf, these are all parts of the Malchut actually?
R. For sure all we are talking about is Malchut, Rosh, Toch, Sof everything that there is. We are all talking about the will to receive how it feels itself and arranges itself in contact with the light.
2. S. (05:53) What is there from the Tabur down?
R. From the naval down there's a Malchut that cannot receive to bestow it does not have the force of the Masach.
S. Why is there room for in the Partzuf because the Guf calculates only what it can receive the Rosh?
R. To receive an order to bestow cannot do more than from Peh to Tabur.
3. S. (06:28) What comes first, the screen or the expansion of the Guf? Inside the Guf?
R. For sure the Masach without having a Masach in the calculation of how much Malchut receives in order to bestow there cannot be any expansion of the upper light into the will to receive inside this body, the Guf, that's one thing. The second thing is from the Tzimtzum Aleph everything that happens with the will to receive and the light, it only happens only by the decision of Malchut. The decision of Malchut it cannot be that without any reason and without some kind of coupling and striking and without some kind of resistance and without the calculation without all these actions of many actions, that some action will happen from the side of the light and the Kli and from the Kli to the light and everything has to be calculated.
S. What's not clear is what he writes the lower learns from the upper meaning what?
R. Usually the lower learns from the upper it means that these low small actions that we can learn about to the intention of the Creator.
4. S. (08:08) He said that the Masach and the Kli of the Malchut strike the light, what's the reason that repels it and rejects it?
R. This is the returning of the light to the emanator. It's an action inside of the created being who wants to make the same action towards the Creator like the Creator does towards him.
S. When can the light continue and not be rejected or repelled is there such a thing?
R. If there is no Masach and it's smaller than there's no reflected light.
S. Meaning the condition for revelation is that there needs to be Ohr Hozer?
R. Yes
5. S. (08:56) He writes that we have no discernments in the 10 Sefirot of Rosh, but only after it expands in the Guf, what are all these actions of the rejections, the restrictions, the Masach, the Ohr Hozer. we don't discern any of these?
R. We discern within them actions that have to be arranged to accompany the created being to the Creator, to match
6. S. ( 09:39) What are these ten parts that are corrected by the light?
R. Ten Sefirot that have a Tzimtzum on them so they don't receive so they're just ten spaces.
Item 17 (09:59 ) “The seventh kind is the reflected light that remains…"
7. S. (12:48) Where is it in the 12 types of reflected light in the world of Adam Kadmon are they like the blueprint of the following 12 Partzufim of the world of Atzilut?
R. No, no, no, don't be a wise guy learn what's written here and that's it, you can connect it with another thousand things.
Item 18 (13:29 ) “The eighth kind is the above reflected light…”
8. R. (14:17) We also need to understand that besides what Baal HaSulam says about these different types of lights, direct light, inner lights, returning light, there are many more types that he does not speak about, because you cannot speak about everything but there you could say hundreds if not thousands of types of lights and vessels that we are not able to from our, we have this weak communication between us to speak about everything but when we reach them and practice these things then we feel that it becomes part of our livelihood and then we learn them on ourselves.
Item 19 (15:17 ) “The ninth kind is the reflected light that ascends…”
Item 20 (16:08) “We might ask: but there is expansion of direct light…”
Item 21 (18:38) “It has been explained that even though…”
9. R. (20:10) Meaning again he's explaining the inverse relationship between lights and vessels, next.
Reading item 22 (20:08) “This above matter of inverse relation
Reading item 23 (21:25) The origin of these two values has already been explained
