As Purim ends, we find ourselves just a few weeks away from Pesach (Passover), the 15th day of the lunar month of Aries. The kabbalists teach us that these weeks preceding Pesach are an essential time for us to prepare for this powerful window in time. Pesach is a time when we have the ability to tap into a realm of light, which is free of any darkness, pain or chaos that exists in our lives and in the world.
As Rav Berg shares in Days of Power Part 2:
Pesach, the 15th day of the lunar month of Aries, was established at the time of Creation. At that moment, the awesome energy of the Lightforce of the Creator, which is a sharing energy, was released into the cosmos. Were this energy to be tapped by the people of the earth, sharing energy would be the dominant force of this world and the energy of darkness, which embodies chaos, pain and suffering, would come to an end.
The purpose of Pesach is to once again take advantage of the Lightforce energy, which is available on the 15th day of the month of Aries, to interrupt the dominion of darkness and chaos over our lives. According to the kabbalistic dictum of “no disappearance,” once an event takes place in the metaphysical realm, it becomes available to us each and every year.
We would like to invite you to join us in a 21 Day Study challenge, designed to maximize our ability to enjoy the Light that is revealed during this important window in time. To make this process easy, we will post essential Pesach preparation materials in these next upcoming weeks preceding Pesach. The study guide, available to you below, includes Pesach preparation lectures from Kabbalah University, related sections from Days of Power Part 2 by Rav Berg, and appropriate pages recommended to scan from The Writings of The Ari (Kitvei Ha’Ari).
Rav Isaac Luria, the Ari, is one of the greatest influences on what is taught in The Kabbalah Centre today. The Ari's most trusted pupil, Rav Chaim Vital, recorded the teachings of the Ari on paper, producing the volumes of what we now regard as the The Writings of The Ari. The Ari's writings became the legendary source for later kabbalists who referred to it as a concise and clear literary work that could unveil the coded contents of the Zohar. Scanning The Writings of the Ari [available only in Hebrew] is an essential complement to working with The Zohar. While The Zohar connects us to The Tree of Life reality, providing us with the energy to make things happen in our life, the The Writings of the Ari helps us know how to use this energy in our lives.
Scanning or meditating on these sacred words in the days leading up to Pesach strengthens our connection during this powerful window in time.
