Daily Zohar – Tikunim – #238 – Becoming like God
Tikkun 19-16
יוד-הא-ואו-הא is the name that represents Zeir Anpin. It has 10 letters as in 10 fingers that gives us the ability to work and manifest the thought into actions.
Each hand has 14 bone links, which is the same as the numerical value of the word Hand in Hebrew יד. Together it is 28, same as the number of letters in the first verse of the Torah . בְּרֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ.
Same as the word for power or might in Hebrew, כח.
In the Song of Songs 5:14 we read “ יָדָיו גְּלִילֵי זָהָב”
Translates to “His hands are channels to reveal the light of Chokmah…” (gold is left column, Gimatria 14)
Zeir Anpin, מה, has the power כח of Chokmah חכמה. Same letters and numerical value of 73.
Our body reflects the spiritual system as it is ssaid in Ecclesiastes 7:14 “גַּם אֶת-זֶה לְעֻמַּת-זֶה, עָשָׂה הָאֱלֹהִים”
“God has made the one parallel to the other”
Genesis 9:6 “כִּי בְּצֶלֶם אֱלֹהִים, עָשָׂה אֶת-הָאָדָם.” “in the image of God man was made.”
Deuteronomy 20:19 “ כִּי הָאָדָם עֵץ הַשָּׂדֶה” “…man is the Tree of the field”
In the poetic description of Zeir Anpin, Song of Songs verse 11 describes the head, verse 12 describes the eyes, 13describes the cheeks and lips, 14 describes the hands and inner parts and 15 describes the legs.
My friend Jeff (Ezra) Meiliken, is a mathematician and an expert on Torah Gematria. He is also the author of “The Genesis Prayer” and wrote many articles on KabbalahSecrets.com.
He recently shared with me his findings about the connection between the body parts and the structure and measurements of the Holy Temple. Hopefully he will publish this amazing information soon.
Our body is Holy because it was built to channel the spiritual energy and allow us to experience the creative force from within. “Handle” everything like channeling the supernal energy. As a daily reader of the Zohar, you are connected to higher levels of energy and all your actions count. Be a creator, become like God because He wanted you and us to be like him. He even hid himself from us so we can feel the personal achievement in creating and doing for others.
