…everything proceeded in a state of repair… Evil was not rooted there and accordingly there was nothing to hold back the radiation. …and no delay was necessary there. As soon as the process began it was completed at once, for such is the nature of that level. (This comes to explain why only one thousand years each are required for the ascents to the Eyes, Nose and Mouth of Adam Kadmon while the repair of BaN requires six thousand years, as discussed further below.)
But the damage was in BaN and its repair is through MaH… Here things take longer because the work necessary on this level cannot be completed all at once. First there was the damage, which made it necessary for man to come afterwards and complete the repair of these defects.
