Kabbalistic Letter with Blessings Handwritten by the Lubavitcher Rebbe
"As in the days you left Egypt, I will demonstrate wonders"
Extremely rare segulah letter that deals with lofty Kabbalistic topics. Uniform public/private letter for all recipients. The addressee's name was added by the Rebbe in his own hand. The Rebbe added another three handwritten lines of blessings in the margins of this letter. Brooklyn, Pesach Sheni 1951.
Rare segulah letter, in which the Rebbe himself emphasizes its segulah: "On this day of segulah, etc." The segulah is not only in the day the letter itself was written - "Pesach Sheni' - which has great significance in Chassidic thought, but also the letter's Kabbalistic content that discusses the day of segulah, Lag BaOmer, the Rashb"i's yahrtzeit, which the Rebbe refers to as a "yom segulah."
This letter bears exceptional Kabbalistic-Chassidic content. It deals with the celebrated day of Lag BaOmer. The Rebbe clearly elucidates the significance of this day in Chassidic thought, what should be concentrated upon, and how a person should conduct himself on this day, and more. As was his sacred way in his deep and directed letters, this letter too bears handwritten material added by the Rebbe in its margins, mainly glosses and references for further understanding the deep content of the letter. As befits a letter that deals with such lofty matters, the Rebbe signs his letter with rare blessings for spiritual success and an emphasis on secrets of the Torah.
This specific letter bears a special addition for recovered health in three lines of important blessings: "Praise be Hashem for the good news that [you] mentioned about the improvement in [your] daughter's condition and that of the rest of the family ..." The Rebbe concludes his blessing with an outstanding promise: "You will also share even better news!"
