74- Father and Mother
“Father gives the white.” The male brings down the vessels of reception of Behina Dalet [Fourth Phase], called “self-love.” “Mother gives the red.” The female gives the Kelim [vessels]. However, they are vessels of bestowal.
It follows that it is impossible to obtain vessels of bestowal prior to deciding that the vessels of reception are unfit to use. That is, it is impossible to obtain vessels of bestowal, which is the love of the Creator, before we know that self-love is wrong, that it is forbidden to use these Kelim.
Conversely, the order of the work of the general public is that in addition to self-love, they want to add love of the Creator. But these two matters cannot be in the same carrier, so they must remain in self-love and do not achieve love of the Creator. Instead, it is ascending and descending.
