Title: The Light of Thirty-Six:


Accessing the Hidden Light of


Creation on a Daily Basis


Author: Pinchas Winston


Publisher: Thirtysix.org


 


 


   Readers and nervous newshounds wondering how to become more spiritual in a hurry can take steps toward meeting that goal by studying The Light of Thirty-Six: Accessing the Hidden Light of Creation on a Daily Basis. Read and re-read the book. Invest time, effort and thought into your spirituality-seeking process so you can act on the book’s lessons seriously, not superficially.

 

   Author Pinchas Winston’s decades of deeply insightful research into Jewish spirituality focuses on the significance of Chanukah, Ohr HaGanuz and specific numbers related to them – particularly 36, 25, and 11. These and other numbers important to Jewish spirituality are explored in this paperback, too. The introduction indicates that ” the number eight symbolizes our unique relationship with God a supernatural level of existence ” Readers will then learn why ” all redemptions of the Jewish People are miraculous” and that numbers 70, 112 and 240 also spell out spiritual lessons. They’re explained later in the book.

 

   By page 17 in Chapter One of Section One, you and the text will be speeding along into far deeper insights about the importance of the holy light hidden within creation. You’ll realize that you’re learning how to access it on a daily basis. These insights, Winston points out, are major lessons of the Chanukah holiday. Page 40 presents them in two thought-provoking paragraphs. Chapter Four expands on the lesson by pointing out oft-overlooked implications of the essential differences between Yaakov and Eisav plus Yaakov’s struggle with an angel who changed his name. The segment also summarizes the spiritual depth of Yaakov’s journey over the river Yabok, how it puts the Y2K event into a spiritual context and provides spiritual lessons for eternity let alone facilitating geula.

 

   The author expounds on the above until Section Two. Readers will then be more ” able to see the hand of God in even the darkest moments trust that God is running the show and that all is for the good” (p. 164). Fine and dandy, you might think. What are nervous newshounds and readers to do in case of war? Pages 165 through 199 tell you in specific detail.

 

   When you reach the conclusion of The Light of Thirty-Six you’ll be tingling with the realization that ” we are, in turn, trusted by The Holy One Blessed be He, Who hands over the ability to perform miracles to man” and how we know that this is so.

 

   Ease your blood pressure and frightened mind. Read The Light of Thirty-Six: Accessing the Hidden Light of Creation on a Daily Basis often, perhaps just before bedtime. Sleep is a great tool for processing valuable information and letting you waken with confidence.

Yet all are part of one neshamah, planted in rich, verdant soil, determined to grow. May our garden continue to produce a glorious assortment of flowers and trees, each attached firmly to its roots. Our diverse southern vegetation flourishes and grows into different trees, flowers, and fruits, and a rainbow of glorious shades and hues appears. Yet each shoot is rooted in the same soil, stretching its branches and blossoms heavenward in an endless pursuit of growth and connection to the One above.

This past Lag B’Omer, we were blessed to make our first upsherin, where we celebrate our son’s first hair cut. It’s a wonderful milestone that mimics the three years that we refrain from plucking a tree’s first fruits and symbolizes the entry of the child into the world of Torah learning. It’s a clear sign to everyone; this boy is no longer a baby.

The importance of death customs has been ingrained in me since birth. When I served as a shomeret for my grandmother, I was instructed not to eat, drink or perform a mitzvah in the same room. In the shock of death, it seemed rather inane to be told it would be considered mocking the dead. My grandmother was gone; she couldn’t do those things because she didn’t exist anymore, a fact that still makes me tear up.

Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv zt”l, who passed away on 28 Tammuz, (July18) this year at age 102, spent all of his days and most of his nights learning Torah. He was the paramount leader of our generation, and inspired tremendous awe and reverence in everyone who knew him. Now, every woman has the stunning opportunity to do something in his memory. A Sefer Torah is being written in his memory and women around the world have the chance to dedicate a letter.

The Hebrew-English haggada provides a wealth of photographic evidence of the lives led by Ethiopian Jews. The pottery, the unembellished homes, school, and synagogues, the gaunt Jews in modest clothing and head coverings portray dedication to Torah values despite harsh political and topographical conditions.
