...which it took as its vessel... In other words, this is the connection that was brought about: the law was so instituted that there should be an interior (פנימיות, pnimiyut) consisting of lights and an exterior (חיצוניות, chitzoniyut) consisting of vessels, and that each light should radiate in its vessel and purify it.
Thus the light emerging by way of the senses is light that is already joined with the vessel... Do not think that this emerging light is simple light, for it comes from a connection that has already been made, after which no further developments emerge without the two, the light and the vessel, being connected. Accordingly, even though it appears at first as if this light emerging from Adam Kadmon’s sense organs contains no vessel, the truth is that something of the category of the vessel is certainly absorbed within it. However, because the light is so overpowering, these “vessels” cannot be discerned at all.
