The nest is the Temple, where the&nbsp;<em>Shechina<\/em>&nbsp;dwells. Israel are the fledglings on which the mother, the&nbsp;<em>Shechina<\/em>, sits. It is written about it, \u201cAnd the mother [is] sitting on the young or on the eggs.\u201d The young are the sages of the Mishnah, which fly by her commandments. The eggs are the sages of the Bible [Old Testament].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>788) When Israel sinned and the Temple was ruined, it is written, \u201cYou shall certainly let the mother go,\u201d meaning the&nbsp;<em>Shechina<\/em>, as it is written, \u201cFor your transgressions, your mother was sent away.\u201d It is written about the sages of the six orders of the Mishnah, \u201cBut the young you may take for yourself.\u201d These are six orders from the six sons,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;<em>NHY<\/em>, below upper&nbsp;<em>Ima<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>. They are implied in the six words of the&nbsp;<em>Shema<\/em>&nbsp;reading [in Hebrew] or in the six orders of the Mishnah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne does much; one does little, as long as one aims one\u2019s heart to heaven,\u201d to unite&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, who is called \u201cheaven.\u201d She is tied with the knot of&nbsp;<em>Tefillin<\/em>&nbsp;on the head and on the hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eggs are the sages of the Bible, light of&nbsp;<em>Nefesh<\/em>. The young are the sages of the Mishnah, the light of&nbsp;<em>Ruach<\/em>. They are still in&nbsp;<em>Katnut<\/em>. The sages of Kabbalah, the light of&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, are called \u201csons.\u201d However, there is&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, such as the unification in the six words of the&nbsp;<em>Shema<\/em>&nbsp;reading, and those who departed from being regarded as fledglings, from&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;without a&nbsp;<em>Rosh<\/em>, but have not yet become actual sons, but only in&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, yet are missing&nbsp;<em>GAR<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, they, too, are called \u201csons.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is written about the sages of the six orders of the Mishnah, \u201cBut the young you may take for yourself,\u201d being the six orders from the six sons,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;<em>NHY<\/em>, under upper&nbsp;<em>Ima<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, on whom upper&nbsp;<em>Ima<\/em>&nbsp;is already present, but only from&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>. These&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>&nbsp;extend to&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;in the six words of the&nbsp;<em>Shema<\/em>&nbsp;reading, as well as in the six orders of Mishnah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It follows that there are two discernments in the sages of the Mishnah:&nbsp;<em>Ruach<\/em>, which is&nbsp;<em>Katnut<\/em>, or&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>. It was said about them, \u201cOne does much,\u201d which is&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, \u201cand one does little,\u201d which is the light of&nbsp;<em>Ruach<\/em>, \u201cas long as one aims one\u2019s heart to heaven,\u201d to unite&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>789) With what are the sons\u2014who are&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>\u2014taken? With several tweets of the sounds of the&nbsp;<em>Shema<\/em>&nbsp;reading, where in the unification of the&nbsp;<em>Shema<\/em>&nbsp;reading one extends&nbsp;<em>VAK<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>. Afterward, the prayer is whispered in a whisper during the standing prayer, toward the mother,&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, to extend the&nbsp;<em>GAR<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>Gadlut<\/em>, and to the daughter,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>. These are the&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>, since&nbsp;<em>Ima<\/em>&nbsp;is the first&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>, and the daughter is the bottom&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>. They descend to&nbsp;<em>Vav<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, in his knot, which is&nbsp;<em>Yod<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Hochma<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the first&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Bina<\/em>, is on the&nbsp;<em>Vav<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>, the&nbsp;<em>Tefillin<\/em>&nbsp;on his head, the&nbsp;<em>Mochin de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>GAR<\/em>. And the bottom&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>&nbsp;descends to the&nbsp;<em>Yod<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>, who is the knot of the first&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>&nbsp;on the head of the&nbsp;<em>Vav<\/em>, where&nbsp;<em>Abba<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Yod<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>, established the daughter,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>.&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>&nbsp;is connected to her with the&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>&nbsp;in the weaker hand, the knot of the hand&nbsp;<em>Tefillin<\/em>, in a manner that the&nbsp;<em>Yod<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>&nbsp;is the knot of the head&nbsp;<em>Tefillin<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Ima<\/em>&nbsp;on the head of the&nbsp;<em>Vav<\/em>. She is the knot of the hand&nbsp;<em>Tefillin<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, in the weaker hand of&nbsp;<em>ZA<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>790) And because of it the fledglings are from the letter&nbsp;<em>Vav<\/em>, the light of&nbsp;<em>Ruach<\/em>, which include the six orders of Mishnah,&nbsp;<em>HGT<\/em>&nbsp;<em>NHY<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eggs are the sages of the Bible, the light of&nbsp;<em>Nefesh<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Malchut<\/em>, the bottom&nbsp;<em>Hey<\/em>&nbsp;<em>de<\/em>&nbsp;<em>HaVaYaH<\/em>.
