    Partnerships

    If at the present time you’re unable to “VISIT US” and take the “THE JERUSALEM MIDNIGHT EXPERIENCE”, the next best way to CONNECT to our mission is to make a PARTNERSHIP with one of our special Avrachim! According to Rav Chaim Palagi those that support someone that rises to pray and study at Chatzos share the same merit and blessings as the person himself!

    How does it work?

    The Yissachar Zevulun Agreement
    This is an agreement between two individuals based on what is written in the Torah about the relationship between two of Yaakov Avinu’s sons. Zevulun would sell merchandise at seaports and Yissachar was occupied with learning Torah. Zevulun and Yissachar formed a partnership between themselves whereby Zevulun would provide Yissachar sustenance from his business ventures and Yissachar would share the merit of his Torah learning with Zevulun. This partnership became a paradigm throughout the generations as a model of a relationship that would benefit both individuals while both pursued their own unique path in life.

    The agreement has many stipulations in order to assure that the partnership renders them equals. Meaning that the partnership is not considered charity, but a 50 50 arrangement. At Kollel Chatzos Yerushalayim, there are sincere Avreichim ready and willing to enter into a Yissachar Zevulun agreement. They are devoted Torah scholars that are learning at the most auspicious hours of the night with enthusiasm and excitement. Take the unique opportunity to partner as a “Zevulun” with a Yissachar “ representative” at the Kollel and share with him the merit of his learning. Know that every night you are partnering with someone who is spending these precious hours for your mutual benefit and merit. Together, and for eternity. Sign up now under any one of the available partnership options.

    Pidyon Nefesh

    Pidyon Nefesh is a kabbalistic practice involving the giving of charity and the reciting of particular prayers to help a person be freed from difficult decrees and heavenly judgments.

    The prayers and charity are said to help sweeten the judgments at their root and are thought of to be particularly powerful in helping a person who is sick.

    The pidyon is performed by an individual who is recognized in the community as having righteous character and behavior.

    The Pidyon Nefesh has been used for centuries among Jewish communities around the world. The Pidyon is usually done when a salvation is needed urgently not only from severe illness, but also in situations of danger, trouble or court cases. On a deeper level, the sages taught that a person’s soul can be taken captive, as it were, by accusing heavenly forces and can be released by enactment of the Pidyon Nefesh — literally meaning redemption of the soul. This makes way for the person to have an opening for renewed fortune in health, wealth and success.

    Podcasts

    The “Wisdom of Unity” is a series of over 20 short podcasts (under 10 minutes) explaining the attribute of DAAS, expansive Divine consciousness. DAAS is the remedy “TIKKUN” for our present exile and the way back to building the Third and final Temple. 

    As Chazal said “Anyone who possesses DAAS it’s as if they built the Bais Hamikdash!

    Tikkun Chatzos-- the midnight service

    The nightly recitation of prayers and psalms that the Jewish sages set in order to lament and mourn the destruction of the Holy Temple.

    The time of the Tikkun Chatzos prayer is set for 6 hours after nightfall. At this time it is considered meritorious for a Jew to rise from his sleep and begin his “day” with prayers mourning and lamenting the loss of the Holy Temple. He occupies his thoughts with the great loss for himself and tears for the Jewish people and begs for the end of the lengthy exile. He hopes for the redemption and the joy of the rebuilding of the Beis HaMikdash.

    But this just touches the surface of what Tikkun Chatzos is!! The writings of Kabbalah and Chassidus tell us so much more!! They open up for us secrets and depths of understanding about Tikkun Chatzos that are both astounding yet relevant for us even today!!

    Especially today!! Understanding that will inspire us to want “wake up” and break our sleep of the dark night of exile and take our part in the bringing of the long awaited final redemption!!
    Come, join us on our journey to understand Tikkun Chatzos…

    The Living Aligned Process

    The Creator, in His infinite wisdom, designed the universe with all of life’s challenges to aid us to reach our goal of connection with The Source. Life’s difficulties, problems, fears, anxiety and accidents are therefore all part of the lifelong “process” of spiritual growth. In reality, our problems are truly HIDDEN BLESSINGS, helping us to make a breakthrough and become our authentic selves. They push us from constricted states of consciousness to expanded consciousness, clarity, and understanding.

     

    Starting with a group of students Rabbi Baruch Gartner began the “Process” of bringing down the concepts that eventually became the book “Living Aligned “. There he describes the “Cosmic Process” of the ongoing revelation of Divine Mercy throughout history. Parallel to this, the book sheds light on the individual’s growth “Process” in quest to align with The Divine. Many serious readers desired to further the “process” of “bringing down” and workshops began. These meetings gave birth to…The Living Aligned Process
