67. בֹּא רְאֵה, בִּפְנֵי הָאָדָם שְׁמוֹ שֶׁל הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, וְחָסֵר יוֹ”ד מִמֶּנּוּ וְלֹא נִתְקָן. בָּא אַבְרָהָם וְחִבֵּב אֶת הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, וְאָמַר לוֹ, בְּךָ יְתֻקַּן הַשֵּׁם, וְנִמּוֹל, וְנִתְקַן הַשֵּׁם בַּיּוֹ”ד שֶׁל הַמִּילָה. בִּפְנֵי הָאָדָם שִׁי”ן שֶׁל שַׁדַּ”י וְד’, חָסֵר יוֹ”ד, נִתְקַן בַּיּוֹ”ד שֶׁל הַמִּילָה, וְאָז נִקְרְאוּ בָּנִים לַה’, בָּנִים קְדוֹשִׁים.
68. וּכְשֶׁמְּטַמְּאִים אֶת אוֹת הַבְּרִית הַקְּדוֹשָׁה וּמַכְנִיסוֹ לְרָשׁוּת אַחֶרֶת, עוֹלָה מִמֶּנּוּ קְדֻשַּׁת הַחוֹתָם, וְהוּא כְּמוֹ שֶׁהֶחֱרִיב עוֹלָם, וְטִמֵּא אֶת הַחוֹתָם שֶׁנִּתְקָן בּוֹ שְׁמוֹ שֶׁל הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא, וַהֲרֵי הוּא הֶחֱרִיב אֶת הָעוֹלָם.

Zohar Vayechi
#66
Deuteronomy 14:1
“בָּנִים אַתֶּם, לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם”
“You are the sons of YHVH your God.”
The children of Israel are called “the sons of YHVH”. They are considered as angels because they have the Torah that can elevate them to the levels of angels.
#67
The name of the holy One Blessed Be He is on the face of a person less the letter י Yod. When Abraham came and pleased God with his faith and action, he was rewarded with the name שדי.
The letter ש on the face is formed with the two eyes and the nose in the middle.
Because of Abraham’s purity we have the merit to be called ‘Sons of YHVH’.
#68
The use of the sex organs for improper acts contaminates the vessel. It removes the holiness from the vessel. It is like destroying the world because it disconnects the name of God and stop the flow of light.
The sex organs is the aspect of Yessod, the sefira that channels the light to the world and sustains it. To support and protect a continuous flow of the light of sustenance into our lives, we need to keep the purity of the vessel and the channel of Yessod.
