Prayer to Be Released from Debts by the Esteemed Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland

Master of the Universe, Almighty, from Whom no scheme is hidden, grant me the four aspects of Mount Tabor, which is four parasangs long, to know that I am worse than all the tzaddikim, worse than all the intermediate ones (beinonim), worse than all the wicked, and worse than my own current level. And likewise, to emerge from the 'nape of the neck' (mishka d'tzavarei) of three parasangs, and not to be arrogant—neither in my wisdom, nor in my strength, nor in my wealth. Through this, I will merit to be released from all my debts and merit an abundance of food, drink, and clothing, by attaining the ten aspects of the Name 'Mah' (45), which in gematria equals 450 (shefa).

I beseech You, Hashem, remove from me the 'Samael' (the evil inclination) that is clothed within my eyes, for 'ayin' (eye) in gematria, plus one, equals 131 (Samael).

I beseech You, Compassionate and Gracious One, grant me all the aspects of 'Mah', and specifically the 'Achorayim' (posterior) of 'Mah', which in gematria equals 'ayin' (130), for the Achorayim of 'Mah' are:

Yud (20)

Yud-Kei (26)

Yud-Kei-Vav (39)

Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei (45)

Total: 130, which is the gematria of 'ayin'.

Only by attaining the new light of 'Mah' will I merit to be released from all aspects of the blemish of the eyes, and then I will merit to be released from all debts. For only the new light of 'Mah' that emerges from Adam Kadmon can subdue the 'shvirat ha-kelim' (shattering of the vessels) of the holy Name 'Ban' (52), which emerges from the eyes, where the entire secret of the shattering lies, and from which all debts originate. Through the unification of the Name 'Ban' (Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei = 52) with the new Name 'Mah', we will emerge from the terrible shattering that has already continued for five thousand seven hundred and... years. Then we will merit to be released from all the debts in which we are all submerged. Through this, I will merit teshuvah (repentance) out of love, and I will always share my pain with the pain of the Shechinah. Through this, I will merit a double parnassah (livelihood), as it is written: 'And the Almighty shall be your gold, and silver of abundance unto you'—for whoever shares the Name of Heaven in his pain, his parnassah is doubled, and his parnassah flies to him like a bird.

I beseech You, Compassionate and Gracious, Almighty One, take me out quickly from all the terrible debts in which I am submerged, and may I merit to pay them off completely. In the merit of this, may I merit to bestow an abundance of parnassah upon all the people of Israel, and may the verse written regarding Joseph the Tzaddik be fulfilled in me: 'He is the provider for all the people of the land.'
