בְּבִרְכַּת וְלַמַּלְשִׁינִים
[In Shemoneh Esreh], when reciting the blessing that begins VelaMalshinim,
"מַפְסִיקִים קְצָת בֵּין “וּתְמַגֵּר" לְתֵיבַת "וְתַכְנִיעַ
one should pause slightly between the words u’semager and vesachniya.
מַתְאִים לְהַכַּוָּנָה, אֲשֶׁר "תְּעַקֵר וּתְשַׁבֵּר וּתְמַגֵּר" הֵם נֶגֶד ג' קְלִיפּוֹת שֶׁצְּרִיכִים הַעֲבָרָה לְגַמְרֵי
This reflects the mystical intent that [the requests expressed by the first three verbs] — se’aker, u’seshaber, u’semager (“uproot, shatter, and crush”) — relate to the three utterly impure kelipos, [i.e., the three irredeemable forces of evil] that must be eliminated entirely.
וְתַכְנִיעַ" — לְנֶגֶד קְלִיפַּת נוֹגַהּ שֶׁצְּרִיכָה הַכְנָעָה וְיֵשׁ בָּהּ בֵּרוּר"
By contrast, the verb vesachniya (“subdue”) relates to kelipas nogah, [the kelipah that houses a spark with a holy potential,] which must be humbled, but can be refined.
