Level: Advanced

Important Note: Shaarei Kedusha (the Gates of Holiness) by Rabbi Chaim Vital deals with supernatural phenomena and is not appropriate for all levels.
Who was the contemporary of Yeshaya HaNavi?

Which mishna is most associated with the word "Ribis"?
On which day do we say yaale vyavo?


   The Chazon Ish (leader of Torah Jewry in Israel during WWII era) wrote

"If a man is a baal nefesh (virtuous and reverent person), and the time is a quiet time, free from the hunger of desires, and his eye opens wide to the glorious vision of the heights of the heaven, and to the depths of the earth, he becomes aroused and aghast. For the world appears to him like an impossible riddle, hidden and wondrous. And this riddle encircles his heart and mind and he becomes faint-hearted. There is no spirit left in him except for this riddle which occupies all his desire and his aspirations. And the understanding of its answer captures his soul, until he is willing to go through fire and through water for it. Because for what is life worth to him, if this life is hidden from him with absolute concealment, and his soul is dizzy, mourning and yearning to understand its secret and to know its root. But the gates are locked..." (Emuna U'Bitachon Chapter 1)

   For those "Baalei Nefesh" who would like torah answers as to the mysterious riddle of life, the book Shaarei Kedusha by Rav Chaim Vital unlocks the gates and provides the Torah perspective...
Please answer above quiz for access.


"At first one must learn halachos (talmud) and fulfill them because they are like bread which satiate and only afterwards to toil in the secrets which are compared to wine and oil. Whoever switches around the order, will not succeed and he will lose everything."
(Vilna Gaon on Mishlei/Proverbs 21:17)
