And know that this Zivug [coupling], which we say took place in AA [Arich Anpin] for the need of the first Ibur [conception] of ZA [Zeir Anpin], divides into two Zivugim: the first is called the upper Zivug, in the secret of kisses [Neshikin], and the second is called the lower Zivug, in the secret of the Yesod; and the discernments of these two kinds of Zivugim have already been explained. Thus, first AA coupled for this Ibur in the upper Zivug of kisses, and from there the drop of that upper Zivug was drawn down to the Yesod in him, and there the second, lower Zivug was made; and from there that drop went out again and was drawn into AVI [Aba ve Ima], and they too coupled and extended them to ZON [Zeir Anpin and Nukva]; and then it remained, in the secret of Ibur, in the belly of Ima.

1The first Ibur of ZA divides into two couplings: the first is called the upper coupling, in the secret of Neshikin [Neshikin], and the second is the lower coupling, in the secret of the Yesod: The coupling of Neshikin means the coupling of GAR, namely the one that brings forth the level of Gadlut in the ten Sefirot of the Rosh, through the power of the new light of the coupling of AB SAG, which brings down the bottom Hey from the Einayim, and the lower coupling of the Yesodot means the coupling of ZAT, namely the one that brings forth the level of Gadlut for the ZAT, that is, ZON. And you see how the ARI says that even for the coupling of complete Katnut, namely for the first Ibur of externality, there also needed to be two couplings, and at first glance this is difficult, since there is no level of Gadlut here — why is an upper coupling of Neshikin needed, to bring forth a level of Gadlut in the Rosh?
The matter is that it has already been explained that for every discernment of the couplings of Atzilut, those levels of the couplings in AK necessarily precede, from which Mochin are influenced to the Partzufim of Atzilut, and then they too can couple and bring forth their share from those levels that came out in the upper ones. It was also explained that every discernment is obliged to receive its Mochin from the discernment corresponding to it in the Partzufim of AK. And it is known that all the discernments in ZA are obliged to be drawn from the screen and the records that are in the NHY of AK, for from there the ZAT of Nekudim begin, which are the discernments of the ZON of Atzilut, as above; see there (page 754, the passage beginning “And this is what is said, indeed”). Therefore it is found that in order to emanate even the discernment of the first Ibur of ZA, it is necessary first that the NHY of AK return and ascend as MAN to AB SAG of AK, to couple them face to face, and to bring down from there the new light that pierced to the Parsa — namely, the one that brings down the bottom Hey from the Einayim of every degree — which is drawn out through the Tabur of AK, to the Keter of Nekudim, and brings down from there the bottom Hey from the Einayim of the Keter to the Peh of AVI, and then AVI return to being a Rosh and attain their Gadlut, and likewise the Keter of Nekudim attains from there its Gadlut, as is known. And after the coupling of Gadlut is made in the discernments of the GAR of Nekudim, that level of Gadlut is drawn also to Atik and AA of Atzilut, and they too bring forth that new level of Gadlut in their Rosh; and this coupling is called the coupling of Neshikin, as above. And afterwards that level is drawn also to the Roshim of AVI, and they too bring forth a level of Gadlut in their Rosh.
And after the above coupling of GAR is completed — namely the coupling of Neshikin, whose source is drawn from the new light that came out through the Tabur of AK to the Keter of Nekudim, as above — then that new light descends to the Yesod of AK, and from there to the Yesod of Atik and AA of Atzilut, so that the Yesod of Atik influences that illumination to the Yesodot of AVI of Atzilut, and you already know that together with that illumination, the discernments of the root drops of ZON are drawn as well, which are drawn from the records of the NHY of AK, namely the discernments of the Vav and the dot, which now become MAN within the Yesodot of AVI of Atzilut. And then AVI of Atzilut couple upon them, in the inclusion of their own screen, and Aba brings down MAD [Mayin Duchrin, male waters] from the level of Gadlut that came out in his Rosh from the earlier coupling of Neshikin, and likewise Ima, from the discernment of the level of Gadlut of Neshikin that came out in her Rosh, and from these above lights, namely from AA and from AVI together, the level of the Ibur of ZA comes out and is born.
And you see that it is entirely impossible to draw down any light for the sake of ZON, except by first the ascent of MAN of the NHY of AK to AB SAG of AK, whose source begins from this new light, for the illumination of the coupling of GAR is called the coupling of Neshikin, from which that light is drawn and descends to the Yesod of AK and to the Yesod of AA, and the lower coupling of the Yesodot of AA and AVI is made, and then ZON are born.
However, the measure of the level of ZON themselves does not depend at all on the measure of the illumination that came out in the Rosh of AA and AVI, but only on the measure of the MAN that were then sorted out for the sake of ZON, for the new light that brings down the bottom Hey from the Einayim of AVI still does not avail to bring down the bottom Hey from the Einayim of ZON (as above, page 736, the passage beginning “The MAN”); see there. Therefore only the level of Katnut came out in ZON themselves. There is more to say on this, and it will be explained in its place.
2The drop of that upper coupling was drawn to the Yesod within him, and there the second, lower coupling was made, and from there that drop went out again and was drawn into AVI: This is a consequence of the prior coupling, which was made through the ascent of MAN of the Yesod of AK to AB SAG of AK, and it illuminated through the Tabur and brought forth a level of Gadlut in the Rosh of Atik and AA, for the Rosh of Atik stands in the place of the Tabur of Nekudim, like the Keter of Nekudim. And then the coupling of Neshikin was made in AA, who receives from Atik. And afterwards that new light of AB SAG descends to the Yesod of AK, and from there it is drawn also to AA, so that the drop of the coupling of Neshikin descends also to his Yesod, and just as the Yesod of AK influenced the Yesodot of AVI of Nekudim, as above, so too the Yesod of AA influences the Yesodot of AVI, as is explained at length in the adjacent item.
