132- Upper and Lower

Kelim [vessels] of one who acquires, and Kelim of one who gives. The upper one is the one who gives, and the lower one is the one who acquires. The Masach [screen] of the lower one that he has in the Eynaim [eyes] is called “shutting of the eyes,” so he sees that the upper one, too, has not more than Galgalta and Eynaim. It follows that the Masach of the lower one covers the upper one.

When the upper one gives the Masach that covers the upper one from the lowerone, meaning he removes the Masach from himself and leaves it with the lower one, by this the lower one acquires Gadlut [adulthood/greatness].

It follows that the Masach and concealment of the upper one, which he left in the lower one, at that time the lower one sees that there is no concealment whatsoever on the upper one. He asks, Who made the concealment before? It is only the upper one himself. This is considered that the upper one gives the Masach to the lower one. He sees this now that the upper one has removed from himself the concealment of his importance.
