On Rosh Hashanah, while reciting the words "Ayeh Mekom Kebodo" in the "Keter" section of the Musaf prayer, one should have in mind that the Kubutz vowel (three dots in a diagonal) is underneath the Yod in "Ayeh," and the Kamatz vowel is underneath the next letter, the Heh. The Kubutz consists of three small Yods, and thus its numerical value is 30 (3 X 10). The Kamatz is comprised of a Yod and a Vav, and thus its numerical value is 16 (10 + 6). Hence, these two vowels have a combined numerical value of 46. This number is significant because it equals the "Milui" ("supplemental") letters of what is known as the "Shem Ayin-Bet." This Name is formed by spelling out the names of the four letters that comprise the Name of Havaya ("Yod," "Heh," "Vav" and "Heh"). The numerical value of the word "Yod" is 20; the numerical value of the word "Heh" (which is spelled "Heh," "Yod") is 15; the numerical value of the word "Vav" (spelled "Vav," "Yod," "Vav") is 22; and the numerical value of the second "Heh" is 15. These sums have a combined total of 72. However, if we count only the "Milui" – the letters added onto the original four letters of "Yod," "Heh," "Vav" and "Heh" – the total is 46 ("Vov," "Dalet," "Yod," "Yod," "Vav," "Yod"). One should try to have this in mind while reciting the words "Ayeh Mekom Kebodo" during Musaf on the High Holidays.
Furthermore, it is written that at this moment during the prayer service on the Yamim Noraim one is able to make a silent request in his mind for either Torah scholarship, children who are righteous, or great wealth (on the condition that the wealth will be used for the service of Hashem). Rav Mordechai Sharabi (Yemen-Israel, 1908-1983) taught that one should have in mind a different request in each prayer. During "Keter" on the first day of Rosh Hashanah, one should request scholarship; on the second day, he should ask for righteous children; and on Yom Kippur, he should ask for wealth.
The recitation of "Ayeh" is also a propitious time for asking for the retention of one’s Torah knowledge, and for proper comprehension of Torah.
