Editing L'Alafim (section)

== In Reciting Tashlich ==
The Arizal writes that one should have in mind during the recitation of Tashlich this Tikkun that indicates the sweetening of judgments at their root. After the Arizal explains that in saying "yichbosh avonoteinu" which corresponds to the Tikkun of "notzer chesed," one should intend to draw the Name 72 to the Name Ehyeh of Hehins with the letters that have the gematria of 151, he continues and details the intention of the words "v'tashlich..." which corresponds to the attribute of "l'alafim":

"You should intend when saying 'v'tashlich bimtzulot yam kol chatotam' (and You will cast into the depths of the sea all their sins), that these are the kelipot (shells/husks) in sin, and He doesn't cast them away, but subdues them, therefore it says 'chatotam' (their sins) not directly, and it doesn't say 'chatoteinu' (our sins), because the intention is to cast away the kelipot in sin, and with this He will subdue our sins, and cast that kelipah into the depths of the sea. And because there is no sin and kelipah that doesn't have within it a spark of holiness through sin, therefore when you reach 'v'nakeh,' the 13th mazal, which is Ehyeh of Yuds that equals 161 like the gematria of 'alafim,' and like the gematria of Elohim Adonai as mentioned above, behold then you should intend in 'v'nakeh' which is 161 as mentioned above, and the language of 'v'nakeh' is the language of cleaning silver from lead, and it is what clarifies and cleans holiness from within the kelipah. And so you need to intend, also when saying 'v'tashlich bimtzulot yam kol chatotam,' intend that you cast all sin and all accusers into the depths of the upper sea, therefore it is good to say it at the seashore, or a well of living water, or a flowing spring as mentioned above, and shake the hems of the garments when saying 'v'tashlich bimtzulot yam, etc.'"
