ARVUT OF : Robin Anderson
HE WHO IS HOLY AND CONCEALED is AA, for its Hochma is concealed.
THE LAWS ARE ESTABLISHED IN IT, meaning in Malchut de Atik. The
deficiency of the Kelim de AHP is confirmed. Malchut of Tzimtzum Aleph, called
“the central point of all creation,” is also the sole creation on which Tzimtzum
Aleph was imposed. Contrary to her, if the screen stands not in Malchut, but in
Yesod or, more precisely, in Ateret Yesod, the place of the covenant (circumcision),
the place of the Zivug that was permitted after Tzimtzum Bet, this screen allows
for the reception of Light. Hence, it is called the “point of population,” and not
the “central point.”
– Keter
– Hochma
– Bina
– ZA Yesod
– ZA—Malchut that received ZA’s properties to “bestow,” the populated
place
– Malchut—no Zivug can be made; the deserted place
The thing is that there is no GAR in AA, for the Supernal Malchut of Atik,
within AA, is already corrected to the point of being in NE of her own Partzuf.
In Gadlut, the screen descends from NE to Peh, which makes AHP return to
their place, and a Zivug transpires on all ten Sefirot, which receive the GAR of
the Light, Ohr Hochma.
Therefore, the screen in NE is called a “lock,” for it blocks the entry of GAR
of the Light into the Partzuf. The GAR of the Light are called Ohr Hochma. Yet,
by descending from NE to Peh, the screen lets the Light into the Partzuf, and is
therefore called Nikvey Eynaim (pupils of the eyes).
Although Atik itself is in NE together with Malchut, it affects AA, and not
Atik itself, as AA was created by the screen, located not in Malchut, but in Ateret
Yesod (or simply in Yesod), and there is no Malchut in it. This is why it is not
Malchut that rules in NE de AA, but Ateret Yesod. And this is why, unlike the
Light of Atik, its Light can be attained, for Malchut in Atik is the central point,
which does not make a Zivug on Ohr Hochma. Although with regards to Atik, AA
is AHP of Atik, AA itself has its own GE and AHP.
