bowing and prostration, that You brought us close to your Torah and to serve
You in holy service, and that You gave us a portion in the secrets of Your holy

And therefore, may it be Your will, Hashem our G-d and G-d of our fathers,
that You will direct our hearts to have awe and love for You, and that Your ears
will listen to our words, and that You will open our uncircumcised hearts with
the secrets of Your Torah. And may this learning bring pleasure before Your
Throne of Honor like a pleasing fragrance, and that You will emanate light upon
us from the source of our soul (neshama) in all of our aspects. And may the
sparks of Your holy servants through whom You revealed these words of Yours
in the world, shine out. And may their merit, and the merit of their fathers, and
the merit of their Torah, and their simplicity, and their holiness, stand us up so
that we do not fall in these words. And in their merit You will illuminate our
eyes in what we learn. As the Sweet Singer of Israel says (Tehilim 119:18): "Open
my eyes and I will see the wonders from Your Torah." May the speech of my
mouth and the thoughts of my heart find favor before you, Hashem, my Rock
and my Redeemer. Because Hashem will give wisdom from His mouth,
knowledge and understanding.

For the sake of the unification of the Holy One Blessed Is He and His Shechina,
with awe and love, and with love and awe, to unify the name Yud and Heh with
Vav and Heh with a complete unity, through He who is hidden and concealed,
in the name of all of Yisrael, to raise up the Shechina from the dust, and to
elevate the Shechina of our strength, a mother of happy children. I hereby bind
myself, through this transcendent learning, with the neshama of all of the
Tannaim and the Tzaddikim whose names are written in the Zohar HaKadosh,
and with their leader the Tanna HaEloki Rebbi Shimon Bar Yochai and Rebbi
Elazar his son. And through this, please fulfill the tefillah of David HaMelech,
may peace be upon him (Tehillim 61:4-5): "You have been a refuge for me, a
tower of strength in the face of the enemy. I will dwell in your tent forever, I
will take refuge in the shelter of your wings, selah." And I should merit through
this, our learning, that their (the Tannaim and Tzaddikim) lips will move in their
graves, for the sake of His name, with love, to make nachat ruach for the One
who Formed us, and to do the will of the One who Created us. And with this
book, the Sefer HaZohar, Yisrael will be redeemed from exile with rachamim.
(As it says Tehillim 90:16-17): "Let your work be revealed to your servants, and
your splendor be upon their children. And the pleasantness of my Master,
Elokeinu, will be on us, and the work of our hands He will establish for us, and
the work of our hands He will establish. And the pleasantness of my Master,
Elokeinu, will be on us, and the work of our hands He will establish for us, and

created to not be manifest. It weakens, as it were, the revelation

Torah, it infuses a revelation of Hashems light inside of
everything in existence and in so doing connects everything to
its root in the spiritual worlds above. This happens on an
especially powerful level when a person merits to arise at

Hashem is to leave behind all of our pursuit of physicality and

Hashem, it always starts with Hashem drawing that person close.
Avrahams merit is that he picked up on Hashems call and then
followed up on it. We should all merit to do the same.

- Say that chochma is my sister Avraham saw that the Shechina,
the source of all chochma, was with Sarah, thus he said She is my
sister.
!
!
!
A Deeper Explanation
Regarding chochma being called sister, we find in the

Tikunei Zohar and a few other places in the Zohar, about
Moshe Rabbeinu, that his sister stood from afar. This
hints to the fact that chochma (a flash of wisdom or
insight) is like standing from afar because it is a
surrounding light that comes into the mind.
Further, Shlomo HaMelech says, It says I will be wise,
and it is far away from me. The Gemara learns from this
verse that a person should not say anything from the
Torah unless it is as clear to him as the fact that his sister
is forbidden to him.
This seems to be a strange parable that the Rabbis are
using here. But the great depth behind it is that the
connection between brother and sister is drawn from the
connection of chochma and bina, which correspond to
the Yud and Heh of Hashems name.
They are called two friends who are never separate,
but the unification is a spiritual one, in the mind, just like
the unification of brother and sister is something spiritual,
in the mind - it has no physical manifestation.
continued
"#$%!"#$%&!'&(!+!
+,!
A person should only speak words of Torah if he has

connection to the Torah from that high level, coming
from chochma and bina, from the surrounding light, the
level that is above this world.
!
What is special about Avraham and Sarah is that

besides the unification of the lower seven sefirot that
every couple has between them in their physical and
emotional relationship, living in the world, they also
merited to a unification in their upper three sefirot. This
unification was completely spiritual and connected to the
Shechina in everything, and only through Hashems
chochma, the deepest levels.
!
Because of that, he was afraid that in Mitzrayim, which

is a very strong negative force, when they saw his high
level of kedusha, they would try to grab it for themselves,
chas vshalom. As it says that Mitzrayim was like the other
three sefirot on the side of evil, as there are 10 sefirot on
the negative side opposite the 10 sefirot on the good side.
Hashem made everything with its opposite.
!
!
!" #$%&'
- And it is written here in Lech Lecha (Breishit 12:13):
. !"$# % &'( )$* $#+ %,& -! $&

- Please say you are my sister Avraham thought that the klipot,
the negative forces, would have no hold on the upper three sefirot, and
would thus not threaten to break his connection with Sarah. But
because Mitzrayim is from the upper three sefirot of the Other Side,
!
"#$%!"#$%&!'&(!+!
+-!
they were able to take her. Hashem then had to step in from the level
of the infinite light in the Keter, which is above everything, to save her.
(! "#$%&) ,%# '()*+

- And it is written (Devarim 5:24):
.!"#$%&$ '$( )* +, +,&) -+

- and you speak to us At the Giving of the Torah, the Jewish
people asked Moshe to speak because they could not handle Hashems
direct communication from the level of Keter. The you (Moshe)
indicates the level of Chochma, whose source is from the Shechina.
!
!
!
The Zohar is explaining how chochma and bina are

something like an intermediary between us and the light
of the Keter, the Crown, which was revealed at the Giving
of the Torah, in the 620 letters of the Aseret HaDibrot.
So too, Avraham and Sarah, chochma and bina, were
intermediaries to bring this light of the Keter into the
world, through establishing a root in Mitzrayim.
Generations later this level of the Keter saved their
descendants who were slaves in Mitzrayim.
While Mitzrayim had the opposing force of the
kedusha on the levels of chochma, bina, and daat, they
had no access to the Keter, because it has no opposite
aspect on the Other Side. Thus, when Hashem revealed
His Infinite Light through the Keter, with the 10th plague,
Mitzrayim was completely subjugated, and our ancestors
went out free.

them in everything they did because of their neshama-level marriage. A

Hashem planted into the world not only connection

with His presence, with Malchut, the lower Shechina, but
even with the supernal transcending transcendental upper

worlds and see what is going on there, and feel Hashems

May it find favor before you Hashem my G-d and G-d of my forefathers,
that what is written in the Torah should be fulfilled upon us now: "And
I have put my words in your mouth and I have covered you with the
shadow of my hand," to elevate, to lift up high, and to fix the destruction
and ruins of the Shechina HaKedosha, to the adornment and upper
curtain, and to the palace which sits on its foundation, to return the crown
to its ancient glory and to fulfill for us what is written in the Torah: "And
the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun and the light of the
sun will be sevenfold the light of the seven days." And the merit of the
Rashbi HaKadosh and his son Rebbi Elazar, and Yotam ben Uziahu, to
stand us up to fix the world from the day it was created until its end,
according to His will and according to the ones who are in awe of Him.
And in the merit of us being involved with this wisdom, bring the final
redemption through it, and sprout salvation quickly, for the elevation of
our powerful Shechina, quickly in our days. And to fulfill what is written
in the Torah: "Elokim said, 'There is light.'"And the light of Hashem will
shine on us. "On that day, Hashem will be One and His name will be
one." Amen, netzach, sela, va'ed.

I am thankful before you, Hashem my G-d and G-d of my forefathers,
that I merited to learn and to meditate in this sefer hakadosh, the highest
splendor. And may the merit of the Tannaim HaKedoshim, who taught
us their Torah, stand us and our offspring up, and that we will merit the
promise of the prophet (Yeshaya 59:20-21): "'And a redeemer will come
to Tzion, and for those who do teshuvah from willful sin,' says Hashem.
'And for me, this is my brit with them,' said Hashem, 'my ruach that is
upon you, and my words that I have placed in your mouth will not be
taken out from your mouth, from the mouth of your offspring, and from
the mouth of the offspring of your offspring,' said Hashem, 'from now
until forever.'" And He will fulfill for us the prophesy (Yeshaya 51:16):
"And I have put my words in your mouth and I have covered you with
the shadow of my hand, that I should plant the heavens and lay the
foundations of the earth, and to say to Tzion, 'You are my people.'" And
the bracha of Moshe, the faithful shepherd, will be revealed quickly to
us, "Hashem alone will give us rest and a strange g-d will not be with
him. Our eyes will see and our hearts will be joyous, and our souls will
exult with your salvation, in truth, with saying, 'For Tzion, your G-d
reigned.'" Blessed is Hashem forever, amen, amen.

Our G-d and G-d of our fathers, Compassionate King, have compassion on us. The
Good and the Bestower of Good, seek us out. Return to us through Your abundant
compassion because of our fathers who did Your will. Build Your house like in the
beginning and establish your Holy Dwelling upon its place. And show us its
construction and make us joyous in its repair. And return the Kohanim to their service
and the Leviim to their posts, to their songs and their music. And return Israel to their
abode. And the earth will be filled with the knowledge of Hashem to have awe and love
of Your great, strong, and awesome name. Amen, this should be Your will.
The Power Of An Hour: Making Time To Learn The Zohar

"There is a great obligation, and subsequently a great reward, for studying the
Kabbalah. For study of the Zohar builds worlds, and if an individual is able to learn and
understand the commentary of just one ma'amar, he will complete a tikun Above in a
single hour what he would otherwise accomplish only in an entire year of learning
p'shat." (Kisei Melech - Tikunei Zohar, 43)
"And for someone who is not well versed in the Kabbalah, and does not understand it,
the study of the Holy Zohar, even by simply reading the text, carries the same value as
if he studied the text in depth." (Kaf HaChaim, 155)
The above comes to teach us that if an individual learns Zohar for even one hour, and
even if he only recites the text, it is as if he studied the revealed Torah for an entire
year. And when he learns the Zohar with joy, he increases his merits by a thousand, as
is written, "When a person studies with joy, it is a thousand times more valuable then
one who does not study with joy." (Orchot Tzaddikim, Gate of Joy)
As well, Rabbeinu Yosef Chaim, zt"l wrote, "One hour of Torah study on Shabbat is
worth one thousand hours of Torah studies on a weekday." (Ben Ish Chai, Parshat
Shemos, second year)
How can one hour of study of the Holy Zohar on the holy Shabbat be equal to a million
years of learning the p'shat on a weekday? Let us make the calculation: One hour of
study of the Zohar equals an entire year of studying p'shat, and on Shabbat multiply that
by 1000, and if the learning is done with joy, then multiply by another 1000. The final
total value of the learning is one million years, for only one hour of learning!

"And one should conduct himself in the following manner

[learning according to the parshiot of the Torah] so that he will
be able to complete the Zohar HaKadosh and the Zohar Chadash
and the Tikkunim every year. But if one learns according to the
order of the parshiot, sometimes he will find that it will take three
or four weeks to finish some long parshiot. Therefore it is proper
to fix the study of the Zohar and the Tikkunim so that he will
complete around three pages every day, so that he will be able to
complete all of the Zohar and the Tikkunim in one years time.
After completing the three daily pages he will learn the books of
the Mekubalim so that he will also be able to complete the study
of the sifrei haMekubalim. However, he will be careful to
complete the study of the Zohar HaKadosh and the Tikkunim
every year as we mentioned before, and in this manner he will
conduct himself all the days of his life."
- Yesod v'Shoresh haAvoda, Shaarei haShishi - Shaar HaNitzotz
"Question: Is a Baal Teshuvah permitted to occupy himself with

the study of the Sefer HaZohar? Can he not repair his neshama
with the study of nigla [the revealed part of the Torah]?
Answer: A Baal Teshuvah needs to occupy himself very much
with the revealed aspects of the Torah and mainly with the
halachot in order to know the way he has to travel and the actions
he is required to perform, until he will be proficient in the laws
of the Torah, in particular the sections dealing with everyday
conduct, specifically the section Orach Chaim of the Shulchan
Aruch, as the Chafetz Chaim writes in his introduction to the
Mishna Berura. The Baal Teshuva has a great level as it is
written: 'In the place where Baalei Teshuvah stand, Complete
Tzaddikim cannot stand there.' It is fitting for him to study the
Sefer HaZohar, and especially the selections of the Zohar that
appear in the Chok L'Yisrael, in order to purify his soul. And
how good and comely it will be if this Baal Teshuvah will come
to the level of bringing merit to other Jews and will awaken other
Baalei Teshuvah to occupy themselves with the study of the
Halacha and the Sefer HaZohar, and in this way the teshuvah of
these Jews will be accepted by the Holy One Blessed be He."
