The Ari's Text

And when ZON ascend upward to the world of Atzilut and unite with Aba and Ima, which are Yod and Heh, then the eleven spices of the incense, which are the vitality of the Klipot drawn from Vav and Heh, also depart and ascend upward, and then the Klipot are nullified, and then the upper name becomes complete.

1And when ZON ascend upward to the world of Atzilut and unite with AVI, which are Yod-Hey etc., and then the shells are nullified, and then the upper name becomes complete. For the present place of AA in the world of correction is the place of ZA of the world of Nekudim. For Atik took their place, of the GAR of Nekudim, for his own GAR, and the ZAT of Atik are in the place of the ZAT of Nekudim. And AA clothes the HGT of Atik, which stand in the place of the HGT of Nekudim, so that AA stands in the place of the HGT of Nekudim, which is ZA. And AVI stand now in the place that is from the Peh [mouth] and below of AA, where the place of the NHY of Nekudim is, so that they stand in the place of the Nukva of Nekudim, for the NHY of Nekudim are the discernment of the Nukva. And therefore, after all the sortings of the seven kings who died have been sorted, ZA will return to his place in Nekudim, that is, he will ascend and clothe the present place of AA. And the Nukva will ascend and clothe the present place of AVI, who stand in her place, that is, as their state in Nekudim before the breaking of the vessels. And then Vav-Hey will join with Yod-Hey in a complete unification, for ZON will clothe AA, who is hinted at in the tip of the Yod, and AVI, who are hinted at in Yod-Hey. And then the upper name becomes complete. And although even now, on Shabbat, ZON ascend likewise to the place of AA and AVI, that is, on Shabbat at Mincha, and likewise on Shavuot, nevertheless they are not there permanently, nor in the discernment of face to face, and BYA remain empty then; but at the end of correction their level will be like AA and AVI, face to face, and the feet of Atzilut will expand to BYA, and BYA will return to being Atzilut, and then there will be the swallowing up of death forever, for the Sitra Achra [the other side] will pass from the earth, and so it will be always, permanently.
