Green Eyes
76. The green eyes of the other side are a measuring, a line from which the Tohu [chaos/formlessness] is extended, a green line, the shell of the walnut.
77. Three shells are seen in the eyes of the Sitra Achra: Tohu, green, and the first shell of the walnut. Bohu [emptiness], white, is the second shell of the walnut, the white in the eyes. Darkness, the third shell of the walnut, is red, like the red colored smoke in the fire, which is red and dark. Black bitterness [also melancholy], abyss, the hollow of the walnut, this is the garment of the evil inclination.
78. He takes the green bitterness from the side of Tohu and makes depictions and lines in the bodies of people according to people’s iniquities. All the depictions and lines are crooked and not in a manner of straightness, and so are the nose, face, and eyes, for wherever the evil inclination, the evil serpent, is present, it is crooked and all its depictions are crooked.
79. He takes the red bitterness from the side of darkness and makes depictions and lines in the bodies of people. He takes the black bitterness from the side of the abyss, which is the hollow of the walnut, and makes depictions and lines in people.
80. There are three knots in a person from the pure side, and they are NRN. The soul takes four elements: dust, water, fire, and wind. That soul leans to the right, to Hesed, and takes water that is incorporated in the mouth of the lion, which is Hesed, and makes depictions in a person’s body. The water she takes are from the Moach [brain], which is divided into four Mochin, HB, Hesed of Daat and Gevura of Daat, as it is written, “And from there it parted and became four heads, which are Gihon, Pishon, Perat [Euphrates], Hidekel [Tigris].
