The Ari's Text

It turns out that the Partzufim AA, AVI, and ZON were made of these phases in the seven lower Nekudot after the correction, whether from the phase of the lights or from the phase of the vessels. Indeed, the phases that have Atik Yomin in them rose and mixed with the first three Nekudot, all of which are the phase of Atik Yomin, and Partzuf Atik was made of all those phases, as we will explain.

1The Partzufim AA, AVI and ZON after the Tikun, came out of these Behinot in the seven lower Nekudot. Meaning by the selections in the association of the new MA with them. Even Partzuf AA was made of Behinat NHY de Keter that was sorted and corrected through the new MA because of the annulment of the Achoraim that were there during the breaking of the vessels.Know, that these NHY de Keter from which AA de Atzilut was made is considered the seven lower Sefirot de Keter. The rule is that any thing that was in Partzuf Nekudim from the beginning of creation, meaning as it came out of the Nikvey Eynaim, is considered GAR.This is because Ohr Eynaim illuminated only to the GAR de Nekudim in the beginning of its creation. Nevertheless, only Behinat Rosh without a Guf came out of the Ohr Eynaim, for Behina Aleph doesn’t shine to the Guf, as the Rav says (Part 3, Chap 1, item 6). Hence, all that the ZAT de Nekudim had was He’arat Kelim from Behinat Histaklut Eynaim in AHP.Now you can see that the entire Behinat Gadlut that reached them as addition to what they had from the beginning of their creation is considered Behinat ZAT and Kelim de Achoraim. This is because they took them from the Behinat Tzipornaim of the Raglaim de SAG.
