The expansion of Chochmah of 32 paths to the lower beings

67. HE GOES ON TO EXPLAIN HOW THE TWO HEADS, CHOCHMAH AND BINAH, AND THE ONE INCORPORATING THEM, WHICH IS DA'AT, EXPAND FROM THE BRAIN OF 32 PATHS TO ZEIR ANPIN AND THE REST OF THE GRADES. HE SAYS, That Chochmah OF 32 PATHS was engraved and produced a river, WHICH IS BINAH, WHICH flows and comes out to water the garden THAT IS MALCHUT. It enters the head of Zeir Anpin and becomes a brain OF CHOCHMAH, whence it flows and goes into the whole body OF ZEIR ANPIN and waters all the plants. This is the secret of, "And a river went out of Eden to water the garden" (Beresheet 2:10).

68. This Chochmah OF 32 PATHS was also engraved, flowed and entered the head of Zeir Anpin, and another brain OF BINAH was made. LATER from that light two flows came out, were engraved and joined the one head of the depth of the pit, WHICH IS THE BRAIN OF DA'AT, as it is written, "By His knowledge the depths were broken up" (Mishlei 3:20). It entered the head of Zeir Anpin and became another brain OF DA'AT, and from there it flowed and entered the whole body OF ZEIR ANPIN and filled all those chambers and halls. This is the meaning of, "and by knowledge are the chambers filled" (Mishlei 24:4).

69. These, CHOCHMAH, BINAH AND DA'AT OF ZEIR ANPIN, shine with the light of that supernal concealed brain that illuminates Mazal, and everything is interdependent and interconnected, to the point that it is known that it is all one, all is Atika, and nothing is separated from it. These three lights CHOCHMAH, BINAH AND DA'AT OF ZEIR ANPIN, shine to three others called fathers, CHESED, GVURAH AND TIFERET OF ZEIR ANPIN, which shine on the children, NETZACH, HOD AND YESOD OF ZEIR ANPIN. Everything shines from the same place, FROM THE CONCEALED BRAIN, WHICH IS ATIKA. And when Atika, the Will of all wills, is revealed, and everything shines, everything abides in perfect joy.
