After the birurim affected by the light of shem mah, the shem ban are excited to rise up.
In the birur of shem mah there is not “excitement” - there is the presence of the King, and a still silent voice.
Bitul of metziut, is without excitement since you are unified with it.
But still why is there a quiet voice? There is an experience, since this on the level of chochmah.
Ratzon itself comes from the nefesh, but chochmah is already to the outside – to reveal the ratzon on the outside – it is a koach not an etzem. Chochmah is called koach mah – an expression of two seemingly opposite aspects – a faculty and a undefined ability. It is a koach in a state of bitul be metziut.
Things come to us by experience, so without chochmah everything would be by an external process. Chochmah does not eliminate the fact that it is still by knowledge, but here it is a direct connection – an inner knowledge.
Chochmah is called chayohi – inner life / light (ohr doesn't have an existence of its own). In our world things have an existence / separate presence, first and then we discern their meaning – this is the keili. Chochmah also has a keili, since it is outside the nefesh, but here the keili is completely butul, and united with the ohr that it represents, to the point that it is not at all an interference at all.

The kleli of chochmah is also called choyohi. The vessel is so fine it is not interference. This means the ohr is in essence above being able to be dressed in a keili. What ohr can be dressed in a vessel? Only one that has an element of presence – thus you can give it a keili and a presentation. Water comes from a river by means of a conduit or from the river itself – it you put a keili into a river, the water is not held in the cup, the cup is submerged in the river.
The ohr is from a level above being held in a keli. The water in the river is in settled form, but the water in the faucet it needs a vessel to hold it, though it is identitcal water. What do these different states tell you? When you have mehus ha ohr you can have it so to speak without a keili, but when you have just gilui, you need a keili to hold it.
There is an hamshacha, that can be called mehus, it is ohr, but it has a pnimius / inner quality that relates to the ohr as it is essentially, in its source. There is an element of this in our experience of sight – all other kochot, prove the presence of the object from the moment it is sensed. In sight there is an element that what is see, pre-existed my seeing it. This is a connection to the reality itself. This is like chochmah that can relate to essence.
