We must not use them for pleasure

The ARI - reverently known as Ari HaKadosh, the holy Ari (lion) was the lion of his and all generations when it came to revealing the China Track Light Fixtures Manufacturers depth of Kabbalah and the Universe as a whole. Until this very day, nobody comes close to his greatness and light in terms of revealing the Metaphysics of Existence, and the secrets of Torah. For our own interest here, the ARI remained hidden for most of his life, until his maggid, non-physical guide, announced it was time for him to reveal himself and what he knew. He was 36 when this occurred, and died some 2 ½ years later. ConclusionOur world is filled with mysteries, and it is in the darkest months of the year, that the most luminous energy becomes available. The hidden is revealed and its radiance is accessible to all those who wish to partake and be nourished by it.The Chanukah lights, unlike the Shabbat candles, may not be used for personal pleasure.

"These lights are holy. We must not use them for pleasure, we may only gaze upon them" (Chanukah liturgy). For these Chanukah lights celebrate a primordial light, untouched, reminding us that there are higher forces at work. It is our connection with these higher forces that replaces the false perception of separation and fear on the life journey with experiences of oneness, Divine assistance and trust.In Earth school, we are in the process of learning and training ourselves toreach higher levels of consciousness. Indeed, the Chanukah lights serve as an antennae for holiness, drawing down the energy of the 36. We place our lit candles in the window as a beacon to all passersby to remind the world that darkness can indeed be dispelled, obscurity can be illuminated, and that it is God’s Light which will prevail in the end.May the up and coming year be a new journey of discovery for us all and may we jump with all our heart into the evolutionary unknown holding our candles of faith.
