Part 16 · Chapter 223

The Ari's Text

And behold, the secret of Atik of Beriah is the secret of the point of Malchut of Atzilut, to whom the Holy One, blessed be He, said: 'Go and diminish yourself, and you shall be a head for foxes.' For this is a head for all of Beriah. And then she is the secret of Atik of Beriah, and is clothed in the three highest of the VAK of AA, which are the revealed HGT, as stated above. And afterward we shall explain, with God's help, the aforementioned point of Malchut of Atzilut.

1Atik of Beria is the point of Malchut of Atzilut. This was already explained above, page 1979, the passage beginning “And at first glance.” And it will be further explained below, page 2012, the passage beginning “The GAR.”
2And is clothed like the GAR of the VAK of AA, which are the revealed HGT. It was already explained above, in the adjacent item, that these HGT of AA came to Beria only in the discernment of a garment of the NHY of Atik, and therefore they now also became a garment for Atik of Beria. See there.
