Tomorrow will be Tu B'Shvat

, which is Rosh Hashanah for the trees. On this day it is customary to eat the fruits of Eretz Yisrael and bless them with a blessing before and after eating.

The great power of the blessings of the Nahanin, according to him, "the power of these blessings and more on Tu B'Shvat - is immense."

Rabbi Pinto explained that (The Gate of the Holy Spirit, p. 11, and the Gate of the Incarnations, Na), because the essence of man's attainment of the Holy Spirit, depends on man's intention and caution in all the blessing of the Nahanin. According to which by them the power of those shells which cling to the substances of food is eliminated, and is adhered to in the person who eats them. And by the blessings of which are said sincerely, he removes from them those shells, and purifies his substance and becomes pure and ready to receive holiness, and I was very careful about it. "

"Therefore on this holy day," Rabbi Pinto continued, "we will try our best to keep the blessing of the nod. If man knew how much correction and how much salvation he saves in the world, by the power of the blessings of the nod, man would reach the joy of truth. "And the purification of the soul is enormous," he added.

"It is also mentioned in the Sha'ar HaMitzvot (Parashat Akev) and it is his language, and know that man should be completely careful in the blessings of the Nahanin, because the human body enjoys them and is sanctified in these blessings.

And we will take upon ourselves the most commandment of this level, and God will give the good, "the Rebbe said at the end.
