The Ari's Text

And afterwards, the GAR came at one time, each one included of the ten Sefirot of BaN and the ten Sefirot of MaH; and then ZA is called great and complete, a son of thirteen years. And afterwards, the Keter of MaH and of BaN entered in all the ten Sefirot that are in the Keter, in one day; and behold, he is a son of thirteen years and one day.

1The GAR came at one time, each one included of the ten Sefirot of BON and the ten Sefirot of MA, and then ZA is called great and complete, a son of thirteen years etc.: And this is through the second Ibur that comes after nine years and one day, when it raises MAN from the posterior of AVI of the discernment of Vav and a dot, and these MAN return AVI to face to face, and then Ima draws the illumination of Hochma from Aba, which are the true GAR, drawn into ZA over four years, from nine years and one day until thirteen years. However, in the emergence of the Mochin in AVI, all the NRNHY [Nefesh, Ruach, Neshama, Haya, Yechida] came out at once. And this is what the ARI writes, that the GAR came at once — meaning in their coming out in AVI. Whereas the Ibur, nursing, and Mochin of VAK came out through three separate couplings of AVI.
