Send Your Prayers to the Grave of the Arizal
Rabbi Isaac Luria (1534–1572) is considered one of the greatest Kabbalists who ever lived, and the undisputed greatest in “recent” history. Virtually all Kabbalistic schools who came after him based themselves on his deep understandings. Many of his customs were accepted into Jewish life by a majority of Jewish communities throughout the world, an example of this is “Kabbalat Shabbat.”
We will go to the grave of the Arizal in the city of Tzfat and pray for your personal request there, light a candle on your behalf, and share the experience with you through pictures.
