In the book "Pri Etz Chaim," it is explained that this Tikkun brings down the influence of will from the Name 72 to the Name 45, which is called "the Name of Havayah of Alefs," and as its name - "Notzer Chesed L'Alafim." And this is its language: "And know that the 13 Tikkunim of the beard are 3 Havayot, in which there are 12 letters, and they correspond to 12 Tikkunim of the beard, and the mazal that includes all of them is the 13th. And 3 times Havayah equals 78, the gematria of 'mazala,' to indicate that everything is included in the mazal. And if we are precise with the letters of 'notzer,' they are 'ratzon' (will) in reverse, because on the forehead is the will of supreme kindness, and below in the beard it turns to 'notzer,' and it is the 8th Tikkun that comes out from the supreme will on the forehead, and surrounds the beard. And since it is the binah of keter, we find in the initials of 'notzer chesed l'alafim' - 'nachal,' because it is 'nachal kedumim' (ancient stream), and it is the 'notzer chesed l'alafim,' this is the supreme 'notzer chesed,' to bring it down below, because supreme chesed is Havayah of Yuds, gematria of 'chesed,' and it descends below from there to Havayah of Alefs through it, and this is 'l'alafim'."
In the Pri eitz Chaim<ref>Shaar HaSelichot Chapter 8</ref> it is explained that this Tikkun brings down the influence of will from the Name 72 to the Name 45, which is called "the Name of Havayah of Alefs," and as its name - "Notzer Chesed L'Alafim." And this is its language: "And know that the 13 Tikkunim of the beard are 3 Havayot, in which there are 12 letters, and they correspond to 12 Tikkunim of the beard, and the mazal that includes all of them is the 13th.

In another place, the Arizal adds that this name is special for the time of the footsteps of Moshiach, the last two thousand years of the world, and this is his language: "Notzer chesed l'alafim. Behold, the Name 45 in its square has six thousand, which is the secret of the six thousand years the world exists, which are the six extremities of Ze'ir Anpin that is called world, as it is written (Psalms 89:3) 'I said, the world is built on kindness,' because the building of the world begins from chesed. And behold, Imma Ila'ah, the preserver of chesed and keeping it for the last thousands, because the first ones have from themselves, and the middle ones which are of Torah are not necessary, but the last two thousand of the days of Moshiach in which we are in exile, for these Imma preserves the chesed. And 'notzer' has the gematria of 'ratzon' (will), because thought is in Abba and will is in Imma, also the initials of 'notzer 'chesed 'l'alafim, is 'nachal,' which is Imma, etc."
In another place<ref>Sefer HaLikutim - Parshat Ki Tisa - Chapter 34</ref>, the Arizal adds that this name is special for the time of the footsteps of Moshiach, the last two thousand years of the world, and this is his language: "Notzer chesed 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.'"
