Hebrew translation:
Tikkun 70 – 54
The angels from the world of בריאה , Creation (Beriah), are called Seraphim. The angles of the world of יצירה, Formation (Yetzirah) are called Chayot (Holy Creatures). The angels of the world of עשיה, Action (Asiyah) are called Ophanim (Wheels).
The sacred letters of the Hebrew are vessels that receive their light from the Nikkud, which is the Hebrew vowels. Literally it means ‘dotting’. When we add the Nikked to the letter, it is like bringing life to an empty vessel and animate it.
The light comes down from the world of Atzilut אצילות through the worlds of Beriah בריאה and Yetzirah יצירה to the world of Action עשיה, Malchut where the Ophanim (wheels) move everything in existence. From the electrons around the nucleus of the atom, the Hebrew letters, the solar system, and everything else in the universe.
The light that comes to the letters has four types,
Teamin – Atzilut – Cantilation marks that is used when reading the Torah
Nekudot – Beriah – Gives the soul on the letters
Tagin - Yetzirah – The higher form of the vessel as it is scribed in the Torah
Otiot – Asiah – The basic shape/vessel of the letter.
Each level receives from the one that is higher than itself. The Ophanim receive from the Chayot and Seraphim in order to manifest in the lower world.
Zechariah 4:10
“עֵינֵי יְהוָה, הֵמָּה מְשׁוֹטְטִים בְּכָל-הָאָרֶץ”
“…the eyes of YHVH, that run to and from through the whole earth.”
The ‘eyes of YHVH’ is the aspect of the Nekudot, ‘dots’ that animate the letters. Without them the letter has no ‘life’ or meaning because each letter could have any of the possible Nikkud.
Man is one of the Holy Creatures of the Holy Throne. He is the channel for the other three, Lion, Ox and Eagle to the world of Malchut. Each of the creatures has aspect of the YHV in the following form.
– –
It has 15 ‘eyes’ and together 45 eyes, as the expanded YHVH name of Zeir Anpin (מ”ה).
The YHVH letters are built from connected ‘eyes’
In the full form of the name we have 24 eyes in each name and all together 72 eyes.

Amazing Zion. Thanks again for sharing. It looks like each letter is composed of a set of eyes equaling a mutliple of “3″. The Yud has “3x1″, the Vav has “3x1″, and the Hey has “3x3″. Is that the intended pattern? Are all letters like this?
Blessings & Light…
3 x 24 = 72 ?
72 names of G-D?
72 represent the YHVH name of Atzilut as יוד-הי-ויו-הי numerical value 72.
As such it can be ‘reflected’ in the lower levels and the three columns in many ways.
72 x 4 gives us 288 (It is actually 72 (Y) + 73 (H) + 71 (V) + 72 (H) explanation will be in the study of the Tree of Life). 288 are the number of holy sparks that we need to correct before Mashiach comes.
The 72 names are the revelations of the Light from the upper worlds in the world of Malchut.
72 x 3 = 216 = גבורה , Gevurah. The world was created in the aspect of Gevurah and the name אלהים ELHYM.
The ‘eyes’ of God are everywhere in existence.
I didn’t check the entire set of letters of this level but there is always a special force and reason for every thing.
Special note for everyone’s consideration:
These letters are not for use in the lower world. There were some holy Kabbalists that used these kind of letters to write amulets for protection. I DO NOT SUGGEST THAT TO PEOPLE BECAUSE IT CAN ‘BACKFIRE’. This is the dangerous zone of Kabbalah so I suggest to everyone to get the knowledge for the sake of knowledge of God’s awesome system. Like rabbi Shimon teaches us to learn about the negative side to be aware of and stay away from it.
There are some people, even with stores online that sells amulets and names in different forms. I do not recommend that and if you have any jewelry with holy names, I suggest talking it to a mikveh for spiritual cleansing from time to time. keep it cleaned at all times and better out of eye sight of people. It it becomes a jewelry with ego attach to it then it is not serving the purpose and the potential light goes away from it.
Thank you for the warning Zion. I believe it is best then to stay away from any kabbalistic amulets etc.
Love

>>>There were some holy Kabbalists that used these kind of letters to
>>>write amulets for protection.
I read somewhere that written words of G-D’s name or other sacred words are demanding attention how to treat those papers after we do not use anymore or archive the paper. There suppose to be some consacrated disposal procedure?
So for example when doing hand writing or re-writing as part of meditation procedure or in callygraphic form on special paper and with ink such paper should be archived or ask for this special disposal treatment not just throw in recycling like other paper?
Another question that barders me what about printing from web site and computer CD’s or disks ? Tons of such paper could be produced. Should such paper also be treated very carefully specially after long time? My home is full of folders with special wrappers for paper not only for Torah and Kabbala text but also from other sources. So it seems there should be as part of spiritual growth also be familiar and awareness of giving up of the past that is in paper or computer files or folders?
Any directions or suggestions how to establish archiving system and where and how to turn for disposal or recycling procedures for paper, files , e-documents, printed pictures, hand writings, illustrations ( for example noter made during study or hand write mediations and during those notes also Holly Letters or words were used )? Or am I exaggarating? Is there any concept that we should follow or this is comming as thruth during spiritual growth? But it seems physical actions during spiritual work are overtaking awareness. If that information about being attended how to treat e-files and papers with sacred names, verses could this result in negative side effects during spiritual work!? For example remembering how many times print some prayers that included one of the sacred names. Fortunatly still having those papers at home. But it could be easly happen to me to throw that paper in the basket for regular paper? Would be the same with computer files that are later deleted? Could those massive operations of disposal without consacrated protocols in some community or globally contribute to the chaos? Is that part of the thoughts Baruch warned us or me few days ago that we are not awared all the details when entering into realm of spiritual work -- the responsibility for aditional documents, data, information that are sorrounding previous sets of data that are feeding or initiate consiousness changes?
Ivan forgive me for being intrusive, but perhaps this link can assist you with your question of properly discarding older Holy Sacred Names. I believe I got this site from an older daily DZ comment, but forgive me if I am mistaken. I saved the link in my important files as I too have some older sacred papers of Zohar and Hashem’s names and I do not dare to disrespect. Hope this helps all DZ family….:

Love light to all
It’s a good explanation.
The message was given, Zion,
greatful for that.
Lots of Blessings and Light to all,
Lea
Shalom Zion,
thanks for the study, thanks for the note, just great:
“This is the dangerous zone of Kabbalah so I just to everyone to get the knowledge for the sake of knowledge of God’s awesome system. Like rabbi Shimon teaches us to learn about the negative side to be aware of and stay away from it.”
Blessings and lots of Light to all,
Lea
Dear Zion,
Could you elaborate a bit on this: “This is the dangerous zone of Kabbalah so I just to everyone to get the knowledge for the sake of knowledge of God’s awesome system.”
How can this be misused? What are the dangers?
Peace and Love, Erik
I have a typo and it should read “I suggest to everyone…”
The Zohar is the perfect tool to help us in the personal and global Tikkun process. It purifies our vessel and prepare us for the Final Redemption.
There are people that use it as a ‘magic bullet’ to achieve goals in the material world. I don’t want to get into details but we should remember that our souls came to this world ‘dressed’ in a limited’ body to work on its correction. The first goal is to better the soul and help others do the same through our work and daily actions.
It’s important to find the soul mate, have better relationship, health and success in business but the main goal is as it said in Proverb 3:5,6
“בְּטַח אֶל ה’ בְּכָל לִבֶּךָ, וְאֶל בִּינָתְךָ אַל תִּשָּׁעֵן.6: בְּכָל דְּרָכֶיךָ דָעֵהוּ, וְהוּא יְיַשֵּׁר אֹרְחֹתֶיךָ”
“Trust in YHVH with all your heart, and lean not upon your own understanding.”
“In all your ways acknowledge (Know) Him, and He will direct (correct) your paths.”
IN ALL OUR WAYS WE SHOULD KNOW (connect, follow, study) HIM. Every action has a spiritual root that we can make better when doing it with the knowledge and consciousness of the Light.
When we achieve such level, every action we do affects the entire world. Gathering and singing in unity for few hours is a great thing and add to the world but when you are 24/7 with the same pure consciousness you can bring Mashiach closer than few thousands people in a short time event.
It’s not easy but this is the way of true Kabbalists.
Thank you Zion, this is a truly wonderful explanation. It will help me a lot in my life.
I feel very blessed.
Love

Zgodil se mi je tiskarski škrat. Namreč moralo bi se brati: “Predlagam vsakemu….”
Zohar je odlično orodje, da nam pomaga tako v osebnem kot tudi v globalnem procesu popravka. Očisti našo osnovo in nas pripravi za končno odrešitev. Obstajajo ljudje med nami, ki ga uporabljajo kot čarobno palico za dosego ciljev v materialnem svetu. Ne želim iti v podrobnosti vendar bi se morali spomniti, da so se naše duše v tem svetu utelesile oz. preoblekle v omejena telesa zaradi svojega popravka. Prvi cilj je popraviti dušo in pomagati ostalim, da lahko naredijo enako skozi naše delo in dnevna dejanja. Pomembno je najti sorodno dušo-partnesko dušo, imeti boljše odnose, zdravje in uspeh v poslu in karieri vendar glavni cilj se glasi kot je izrečeno v Knjigi pregovorov 3:5,6
“בְּטַח אֶל ה’ בְּכָל לִבֶּךָ, וְאֶל בִּינָתְךָ אַל תִּשָּׁעֵן.6: בְּכָל דְּרָכֶיךָ דָעֵהוּ, וְהוּא יְיַשֵּׁר אֹרְחֹתֶיךָ”
“Zaupaj v YHVH z vsem svojim srcem in nasloni se nanj, ne na svoje razumevanje.”
“Na vseh svojih poteh Ga priznavaj ( Spoznavaj ). In On bo usmerjal ( popravljal ) tvoje poti.”
NA VSEH NAŠIH POTEH BI GA MORALI PREPOZNATI ( navezat se, slediti, preučevati ). Vsako dejanje ima duhovno osnovo( korenino ), ki ga lahko opravimo bolje, če ga opravimo z vedenjem in zavedanjem Luči.
Ko dosežemo to raven potem vsako dejanje vpliva na celoten svet. Združeni v zbiranju in petju za nekaj ur je čudovit dogodek in prispevek svetu. Ampak ko si prisoten 7x24 z enako čisto ozaveščenostjo lahko privabiš Mesijo bližje kot pa tisoče ljudi v kratko časovnem dogodku.
Ni lahko, vendar to je pot pravih Kabalistov.
Thank you Zion for that important reminder (warning) for the good of our souls…. suggesting to everyone to ‘get the knowledge for the sake of knowledge of God’s awesome system’. Like rabbi Shimon teaches us to learn about the negative side to be aware of and stay away from it.
May today’s Zohar reading strengthen us with Hasmem’s light
Light and Blessings to all DZ family
Dear Zion
I have come across astral projection (out of body experience) on the internet whilst I was looking for different types of meditation techniques.
Is this from the negative side and is it good for your soul to deliberatly leave your body whilst you are asleep? As you said best to know about the practices of the negative side, so you can be aware of it…
Love

Dear Zion,
Can you please comment on Astral projection -- leaving the body at will -- mind awake/body asleep -- being in Theta state of awareness.
Velvel
Our body is the aspect of Malchut. The soul connects to Zeir Anpin that is the six sefirot above. Each level has 10 sefirot and together 60. When we sleep the soul ascends above Malchut to have a spiritual ‘recharge’ with energy of life. One part of 60 which is malchut of Yessod is kept in the body to maintain its life during the absent of the soul.
This intro was to explain the relationship of body and soul.
Having the soul leaving the body for spiritual traveling could be beneficial for the soul BUT (a very big but) there are some great dangers on the path.
There are negative spiritual entities that tries to ‘suck’ the soul’s energy on the way up or down. Some will confuse the soul with wrong messages to distract it from its true path of purity and growth.
Kabbalists use the Ana b’koach and special names to ascend and get answers from the upper levels.
When we go to sleep we should recite the Ana B’Koach and the Shema prayer along with ‘confession’ to cleanse the soul in case it is ‘called’ back during the sleep.
The sleep process is like a breath of life for the soul. We want to ‘inhale’ pure and fresh life force every night.
The similar process when we do deep meditation. We want to connect to the pure part of our soul that is above Malchut and receive guiding and supporting messages to have success on our Tikkun path.
There are different systems and meditation techniques available but most of them are from the tree of Knowledge Good and Bad.
If one starts his meditation with pure consciousness and kabbalistic tools he would have better protection and success on his out of body travels.
You should always be aware that there are negative and confusing entities and messages on the way.
They may be seen nice but not always good for you.
Take good care of your soul with daily Zohar connection and your path will be clearer and easier without extra ‘forced’ spiritual trips.
Dear Zion
i am very greatful for your thorough explanation. Which meditation techniques would for example not be from the tree of knowledge good and bad? Or is it best not to meditate in case it might be harmful.
