Prayer: Master of the Universe, Almighty, Every Time I Unite With My Husband

Upon Reaching the Age of 6: To Merit the Priestly Garments and the Light that Shines from One End of the World to the Other

Master of the Universe, Almighty, upon my reaching the age of 6, grant me the merit of the priestly garments, the garments of the Kohen, the garments of the Kohen Gadol (High Priest), the garments of Eve from before the sin, which would shine from one end of the world to the other with 370 myriads of lights. At the age of 6, Miriam entered the Sanhedrin (High Court) and cried out, saying, "Stop this madness of divorcing and destroying homes, lest the children fall into an evil culture, Heaven forbid!" Then, she cried out against the Sanhedrin and against her father, who was the head of the Sanhedrin, demanding that they stop the divorces that took place during the months of Sivan—from the 7th of Sivan, Tammuz, Av, until the 7th of Elul. Therefore, all calamities always fall during the months of Sivan—from the 7th of Sivan, Tammuz, and Av. For in the month of Sivan was the essence of the destructions, following the Crusades, which were a consequence of the divorces of the couples in Egypt. These divorces began from the 7th of Sivan until the 6th of Elul, until Miriam, who was 5 years old, entered the Sanhedrin and cried and screamed over the destruction of homes and families. This is why Sivan, Tammuz, and Av are the months of destruction. On the 17th of Tammuz, the city wall was breached, and the siege on Jerusalem was completed, leading to the destruction of the two Holy Temples—may they be rebuilt speedily in our days in the blink of an eye, Amen, Netzach, Selah, Va'ed.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, upon my reaching the age of 4, fulfill within me the verse, "For this child I prayed," so that all the days of my life I will remain at the age of 4, always remaining in the aspect of a youth, and I will never feel pride. May I merit the unity of Hashem, to know that Hashem is One, for Hashem created His world from the 72 Names, which are the 72 connections of the flow of loving-kindness. This Name is only transmitted through immersion in a mikveh and with great purity, which is 9 times 24 (9 * 24 = 216 = Aryeh [Lion]), as it is said in the Torah portion of ...... ...... corresponding to 216, which is three times 72. These correspond to the word "Aryeh" (Lion), the lion in the Divine Chariot, for Hashem is called a Lion. Chana prayed to Hashem, meriting to be included in the Atika Kadisha (the Holy Ancient One, the highest level of Divine will), the most hidden of all hidden things, the secret of the "still small voice" at the age of 4. This corresponds to the 4 spiritual worlds: Atzilus (Emanation), Beriah (Creation), Yetzirah (Formation), and Asiyah (Action), and corresponds to the 4 sons (of the Passover Haggadah), all of whom are rectified at the age of 4. For the entire dispute between Esau and Jacob was over Jerusalem, over who would rule in Jerusalem ...... ....... ..... = Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) = 596. For Jerusalem is the secret of the Atarah (Crown), in the secret of the verse, "Go forth and gaze, O daughters of Zion, upon King Solomon, upon the crown with which his mother crowned him on the day of his wedding, and on the day of the gladness of his heart." For Jerusalem is the Sefirah of Malchus (Kingship) which ascends and is included in Kesser (Crown), which one merits at the age of 4, to be included in the world ...... the world of Atzilus, where true lowliness exists. This is the secret of what is said about Jerusalem ...... "and she shall sit in her place," for Jerusalem represents complete awe (Yirah Shleimah) ....... in the merit of breaking one's pride. For there are 4 klipos (impure husks): a stormy wind, a great cloud, a flashing fire, and klipas nogah (the translucent husk), and all of them are subdued at the age of 4. For regarding ........ it is said, "whose height was like the height of the cedars," as the root is the Tree of Knowledge from which everyone ate. And at the age of 4 ....... ........ ........ for Hashem is not in the earthquake, nor is Hashem in the wind, nor is Hashem in the fire, but rather in the "still small voice" that one merits at the age of 4.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, grant me the merit, upon reaching six years of age, to be like Miriam the Prophetess, who at the age of six stopped the madness of divorce. She entered the Sanhedrin and raised her voice in screams, demanding that everyone return to their homes, women to their husbands, and that her father take back Yocheved, who was pregnant with Moshe Rabbeinu, who was born on the 7th of Adar. Therefore, the months of Sivan, Tammuz, and Av are always the months of destruction, during which the final wars broke out. The tribe of Zevulun would go to war fearlessly (literally "without a heart" of fear) and always emerge victorious, and likewise Yissachar would always win, and so too Naftali on the high places of the field.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from whom no purpose can be withheld, grant me the merit, upon reaching the age of 15, to completely leave behind pride (Gaavah = 15). May the verse be fulfilled in me: "In a lordly bowl (Besefel = 172, Addirim = 265) she brought (Hikrivah = 322) curdled milk (Chem'ah = 54)" [Total = 813], corresponding to Rebbe (Rabbeinu = 258) Nachman (148) son of (ben = 52) Simcha (353) [Total = 811]. Through this, may I merit the intellect (Seichel = 350) of our holy (HaKadosh = 415) and awesome (VeHaNora = 268) Rebbe (Rabbeinu = 268), Rebbe (Rabbeinu = 268) Nachman (148) son of (ben = 52) Simcha (353) son of (ben = 52) Feige (94) [Total = 2268]. And to see Eliyahu HaNavi, remembered for good (Eliyahu HaNavi Zachur LaTov = 400), face to face. May the verse be fulfilled in me: "And for all (U'lechol = 86) the strong (HaChazakah = 125) hand (HaYad = 19), and for all (U'lechol = 86) the great (HaGadol = 48) awe (HaMora = 252), which (Asher = 501) Moshe (345) performed (Asah = 375) before the eyes of (L'einei = 170) all (Kol = 50) Israel (Yisrael = 541)" [Total = 2598]. And to the intellect of Rebbe (Rabbeinu = 268) Nachman (148) son of (ben = 52) Simcha (353) son of (ben = 52) Feige (94) [Total = 967]. Through this, all four angels of the Divine Chariot will accompany me day and night (Yomam VaLailah = 177): Gavriel (246), Nuriel (297), Michael (107), and Raphael (317) [Total = 967]. May I merit to heal all the sick in the world, and through this, may we merit to enter the Garden of Eden (Gan = 53, Eden = 124) [Total = 177] with our physical bodies. Through this, may the verse be fulfilled in me: "I went down (Yaradti = 624) to the nut (Egoz = 17) garden (Ginas = 453) to look (Lir'os = 637) at the green plants of (B'ibei = 15) the valley (HaNachal = 93)" [Total = 1870]. Hashem is One (Echad = 1), and through this ............... ....... in all the worlds.

Master of the Universe, Almighty, save me from the evil eye, so that no person will be able to harm me. May I merit the intellect (Seichel = 350) of Serach (508) daughter of Asher. In the merit of being saved from the evil eye, may I merit an abundance of livelihood (parnassah) corresponding to all twelve stones of the Choshen (High Priest's breastplate): Odem (45), Pitdah (98), Barekes (702), Sapir (350), Yahalom (85), Leshem (370), Shvo (308), Achlamah (84), Tarshish (1210), Shoham (345), Yashfeh (395) [Total = 5000] (missing 150 in the gematria). May I merit to live with my wife {husband} in love, brotherhood (Achvah = 20), and friendship. Please, O You Who causes salvations (Yeshuos = 792) to sprout (Matzmiach = 188).

With the Help of Heaven. A Prayer Before Lighting the Candle of Rebbe Nachman and for Complete Healing

Master of the Universe, as I stand before You now, prior to lighting the Ner Tamid (perpetual candle), in awe, reverence, and terrible fear, with trembling, quaking, and knocking knees, to draw down the soul of Rebbe Nachman into the world through the lighting of the Ner Tamid.

Please, Merciful and Gracious One, Almighty, act according to the greatness of Your infinite wonders, so that the soul of our holy Rebbe Nachman will impregnate itself within me at the time of lighting the Ner Tamid—within me, my wife, and all the members of my household. Through this, draw down upon us all healings and all salvations, so that we will no longer know of any ailment or pain. Restore to me, my wife, and all the members of my household all the Mochin (Divine intellect/consciousness) through the pure olive oil, which represents Mochin d'Abba (the intellect of the Supernal Father) that is drawn down from Arich Anpin (the Long Face/Divine Will), Atika Kadisha (the Holy Ancient One), and Adam Kadmon (Primordial Man).

Master of the Universe, Almighty, as I kindle the Ner Tamid before You, with a tremor of holiness, in fear and trembling, dread and awe, please draw down upon me the Hidden Light (Or HaGanuz), the light about which it is said, "sevenfold as the light of the sun." May I merit the 370 lights (Shai Nehorin) that Eve merited on the day of her creation. Through the Ner Tamid, may all the blemishes that I have caused before You from my very beginning until this day be rectified. May all the lights that I have blemished from the day of my birth until now shine upon me, and may all the lights that I have darkened be restored to me. By my lighting the Ner Tamid, may the light of our holy Rebbe Nachman go forth and illuminate the entire world, and may the whole world walk by his light. May the light of our holy Rebbe Nachman be revealed, the light of the seven days of creation. In the merit of the holy Ner Tamid, may all the evil in the entire world be burned away, and may everyone see the light of Hashem, as it is written, "O House of Jacob, come, let us walk in the light of Hashem." May we merit, in the merit of the Ner Tamid, to hear the Ten Commandments anew, and to see the lights and the torches of the Giving of the Torah. Just as You granted merit to Devorah the Prophetess, who is called the "Woman of Torches" (Eshes Lapidos), in the merit of the wicks she made, causing torches to be seen above her tent, so too, grant me the merit to see miracles and wonders, lights upon lights upon lights. May my entire life be filled solely with the light of Hashem, with the light of our holy Rebbe Nachman.

To Merit Wisdom, Understanding, the Nullification of Fear, and to Merit the Love of Hashem

Master of the Universe, Almighty, in the merit of the holy and awesome unification, fulfill in me the verse, "To Him Who alone (Levado = 42) does (L'Oseh = 381) great (Gedolos = 449) wonders (Niflaos = 567) [Total = 1439], for His loving-kindness is eternal." May I merit, in the merit of the holy and awesome unification, that You open for me all the gates of wisdom and the 50 gates of understanding (Binah), "For there is no (Ein = 61) wisdom (Chochmah = 73) for you (Lecha = 50) like the wisdom (KeChochmah = 93) of (Shel = 330) the Land of (Eretz = 291) Israel (Yisrael = 541)" [Total = 1439]. And I shall not fear anything, as it is said, "And you (V'Atah = 406), fear (Tira = 611) not (Al = 31), My servant (Avdi = 86) Jacob (Yaakov = 182), declares (Ne'um = 97) Hashem (26)" [Total = 1439]. In this merit, "The fire (HaEish = 306) on (Al = 100) the altar (HaMizbe'ach = 62) shall be kept burning (Tukad = 510) on it (Bo = 8), it shall not (Lo = 31) be extinguished (Tichbeh = 432)" [Total = 1444]. And every single day I will go to the Western (HaMaaravi = 327) Wall (HaKotel = 455), the remnant (Serid = 514) of our most precious site (Machamadeinu = 148) [Total = 1444]. "And praiseworthy are they (V'Ashreihen = 587) that they merited (Shezachiten = 787) this (Lekach = 70)" [Total = 1444]. Through this, "And what is upright (V'HaYashar = 521) in His eyes (B'Einav = 148) you shall do (Ta'aseh = 775)" [Total = 1444]. Please, Hashem, "Who gives (Nosein = 500) bread (Lechem = 78) to all (L'Chol = 80) flesh (Basar = 502), for (Ki = 30) His loving-kindness (Chasdo = 78) is eternal (L'Olam = 176)" [Total = 1444]. And I will sacrifice my soul (mesirus nefesh) for (Al = 100) the unification (Yichudo = 34) and oneness (V'Achduso = 431) of His Name (Shemo = 346), may He be blessed (Yisbarach = 632) [Total = 1543].
