Opening 107
The Beard reveals the governmental order of Kindness-Judgment-Mercy stemming from the Three Heads.
All of the Three Heads radiate in the Beard, for the latter is literally the revelation of this governmental order of Kindness-Judgment-Mercy.
Further discussion of the Beard.
All of the Three Heads radiate in the Beard. It is stated explicitly in the writings of the ARI of blessed memory that all of the Three Heads of Arich Anpin - the Skull, the Hidden Brain and the Cavity - are revealed through the Beard. And why is this necessary? .for the latter is literally the revelation of this governmental order of Kindness-Judgment-Mercy. The whole purpose of the Beard is to reveal the Kindness-Judgment-Mercy rooted in the Three Heads. This is why it is necessary for each of them individually to radiate in the Beard.
