We don't begin to understand what this means.
So let's begin - from the master kabbalist, Carlos Suares:
"An important postulate of the Yetsira is: Aleph with everything and everything
with Aleph: Bayt with everything and everything with Bayt (or Vayt). Aleph being
the timeless, unthinkable, eternal, or explosive Energy (or whichever word we
wish to use for what evades all mental concepts) and Bayt (or Vayt) being any
container in whatever form, shape vibration, undulation, ray, etc. . . that
postulate means -- if I can use an obsolete, inadequate, but convienient set of
words -- that everything that is, in whatever realm, is both "spirit" and
"matter", or that there is no explosive Energy without compressive Energy, and
reciprocally no structural drive without the opposite disintegrating drive. Thus
everything that is, is considered by the Yetsira in terms of two co-ordinates,
Aleph and Bayt. Where Bayt prevails powerfully, as in a piece of iron, Aleph is
hopelessly in bondage; it cannot be active; in the biosphere Aleph operates; in
the exalted mental emanation of a man made perfect, Aleph operates through time
and space by means of so subtle mediums that they evade perception. So both
Aleph and Bayt exist in different ranges from the inert to the very active. If
by any chance one could have in oneself and be made of Aleph alive and Bayt
alive, one would be in touch and commune with Aleph wherever it is and with the
Bayts, whatever they are, therefore with everything that is. Aleph alive would
be Aleph-Hay (Hay: 5 is the sign for life; when Abram is given the life of Aleph
he becomes Abraham, with the corresponding added Hay -H in our writing) and Bayt
alive would be Bayt-Hay. Therefore Aleph-Hay-Bayt-Hay would be in that person
and that person would be in that schema, would be that schema in very truth.
That schema, pronounced Ahavah, means LOVE in Hebrew! Its idiomatic meaning is
desecrated, as is desecrated the word love everywhere in the world. The
stupendous Aleph-Hay-Bayt-Hay was originally a cabalistic opening towards being
at-one with all that is."
