Rabbi Shimon said, \u201cGird your weapon and fix yourself if you want to know the things you have begun. Or, if you ask about those things, tell me.\u201d He said to him, \u201cI do know that my wife has died since I know nothing about her, and the friends know about her. Women, what is the reason that they are light-minded?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He was asking about the upper woman, Malchut, and implied the actual Malchut of the quality of judgment, the lock, who was concealed and there is no coupling in her in all 6,000 years. She is as though dead. This is what he implied by \u201cmy wife is dead,\u201d the lock, since I know nothing about her, I have no attainment in her whatsoever. The friends do know about her, as they are thinking about Malchut of the key, which is the actual Malchut and they have attainment in her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women are light-minded since in Daat [reason\/mind] of the Nukva, there is no illumination of the lock at all, as in Daat of ZA, but only from Malchut of the key. This is why the hair of ZA is black, and the hair of the Nukva is red. You find that the judgments of Nukva are lighter than the judgments of the male.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>242. Daat of ZA comes in six degrees, and each takes its part. What remains is light, but this honorable one, Malchut of the lock, if not for the woman of folly who participated in her. Do not ask about this matter, for here, asking is forbidden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I knew that what you said, that your wife is dead and you know nothing about her, you were not asking about your wife but about Malchut of the lock. However, it is permitted to ask about what is written, \u201cBehold the Lord riding on a light cloud.\u201d A light cloud means the mind of that bride, the fear of the Creator, Malchut, who stands in the middle like the upper Daat. But she is called \u201clight.\u201d Thus, I knew what was your question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Daat comes in six degrees, extending only VAK of Hochma by its decision between right and left. The reason that women are light-minded is that there is only a light judgment in them, of the key, since the Daat of ZA comes in six degrees. Through the force of the judgments in him, from the key and from the lock, he draws only VAK of Hochma and not GAR, and each of the lines takes its part, since the lock shines in the right line, and the male judgments in the left line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What remains of the judgments that were not sweetened through Daat of ZA is called \u201clight,\u201d since it is the phase of \u201ckey,\u201d whose judgments are light and fit for reception of Hochma. A light cloud means the Daat of that bride, who fears the Creator, Malchut, who stands in the middle and serves as her middle line like the Daat of ZA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>241.
