THE 42-LETTER NAME OF GOD:
...has no known pronunciation.
The Great Name of Creation has 42 letters and leans to the left and is the source of creation. It has been speculated that this Name is derived from either the 2nd-century prayer "Ana Bekoah"  attributed to Rabbi Nehunya Ben Hakana.or the first 42 letters of the Torah.


Ana Bekoach Prayer
1. Please, with the might of your right, untie the bundle:
2. Accept your people's prayer song, heighten, purify us, Mighty one:

6. Single, proud, address your people, who remember your holiness:
7. Accept our plead, and hear our cry, he who knows histories:
Blessed be his kingdom's honor for ever:

42 letters, are traditionally split into 7 names of 6 letters each:

The name thus appears as:

 SHAH-KAV TZAH-YAT




Clear thinkers try to find the causes which lie in ourselves. Humanity has to be responsible for its actions in war and peace. We need to understand ourselves. Only then can we get along with ourselves and value this precious gift of life, given for the sole purpose of freeing our soul and consciousness from the snares of the mind and senses, which are the real cause of our suffering and ill health. The outer evidences are but the symptoms of the inner conflicts of energies and inharmony. As within, so without.
Life is the expression of love in sound waves and energy currents, throughout the creation and in man.

(Caduseus: The Symbol of Healing: – Kabbalah and Ayurvedic Medicine Ann Roden.)


 There are two matrices of Hebrew letters that were present at the beginning of the Torah and of time. Both are weaved into our daily prayers and prayer books: the 42-Letter Names (Upper and Lower) and the 72 Names (Triplets) matrix of 8 columns by 9 rows.

The Upper 42-Letter Name is comprised of 3 iterations (spelling out expansions) of the unpronounceable Tetragrammaton (יהוה).
The 3 levels contain 4, 10 and 28 letters respectively.

The Lower 42-Letter Name is comprised of the 42 initials of the Ana B’koach prayer and is arranged in a 6 x 7 matrix, which according to the Ramchal, matches the innermost gate of the Holy Temple (6 x 7 cubits) to the Holy of Holies.

The 72 Name matrix is encoded into the 3 consecutive 72-letter verses (Exodus 14:19-21) that describe the splitting of the Red Sea.

In order to understand the letters, we must understand the language of the universe.

From א to ת and 1 to 400.

...an exponential scale, they increase in value exponentially from letter to letter.




The Hebrew letters are the same; they represent a narrow collective or bundle of similar energy frequencies, each letter at least as different from green is to yellow.

 When we sum up the 22 irrational square roots of the spelled out 22 names of the 22 letters, we get exactly 424.242

The Hebrew letters are representations of different forms and levels of energy, according to the 10 sefirot (10-dimensional structure of the universe), and so too are the associated numbers assigned to them. 


The predominant unified theory in physics for decades now has been the Super String theory, in which the smallest elements of matter are thought to be comprised of intertwining and bundled vibrating strings of energy set to 10 different levels of energy frequencies. Mathematicians have proven that this theory only works in a universe of 10 dimensions of space plus one additional one of time. There are dozens of ancient Kabbalistic texts that describe the same structure for the universe, including the addition of the 11th dimension in the tree-of-life, which they call Da’at (Knowledge). 


The 22 letters (levels) were formed in accordance with the 10-dimensional structure of space that they occupy. 
 every power of 10 represents a different dimension with 102 presenting a square and 2 dimensions and 10representing a cube and 3-dimensional space. Every time we increase or decrease the exponential power of 10, we are either ascending or descending a level of dimensionality.

Sefer Raziel HaMalakh "the book of Raziel the angel"
 a grimoire of Practical Kabbalah from the Middle Ages written primarily in Hebrew and Aramaic
...an elaborate angelology, magical uses of the zodiacgematrianames of God, protective spells, and a method of writing magical healing amulets.



...tradition around the book attributes it to have been revealed to Adam by the angel Raziel.

Archangel Raziel, Circle of Zurbarán, circa 1650.

"Tree of Knowledge" 

Adam, in his prayer to God, apologized for listening to his wife Eve חוה, who was deceived by the snake into eating from the Tree of Knowledge - the עץ הדעת, according to the Book of Raziel, God sent the highest of the angels, Raziel, to teach Adam the spiritual laws of nature and life on earth, including the knowledge of the planets, stars and the spiritual laws of creation. 

The angel Raziel also taught Adam the knowledge of the power of speech, the power of thoughts and the power of a person's soul within the confines of the physical body and this physical world, basically teaching the knowledge with which one can harmonize physical and spiritual existence in this physical world. 
The angel Raziel teaches the power of speech, the energy contained within the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, their combinations and meanings of names.
Pietro D'Abano  wrote a grimoire called the Heptameron, a concise book of ritual magical rites concerned with conjuring specific angels for the seven days of the week (hence the title)...based on Book of Raziel.

Seven angels or archangels are given as related to the seven days of the week: Michael (Sunday), Gabriel (Monday), Raphael (Tuesday), Uriel (Wednesday), Selaphiel (Thursday), Raguel or Jegudiel (Friday), and Barachiel (Saturday).

Isaac Luria,  "Ha'ARI" (meaning "The Lion")


We beg Thee, with the strength and greatness of Thy right arm, untangle our knotted fate.

Accept your people’s song, elevate and purify us, oh Awesome One.

 Please, Heroic One, those who pursue Your Uniqueness— guard them as the pupil of an eye.

Bless them, purify them, pity them, May Your righteousness always reward them.

 Powerful and Holy One, In goodness lead Your flock. Unique and Proud One, turn to Your people, who remember Your holiness.

 Accept our cries, and hear our screams, oh Knower of mysteries.

 (Blessed is the Name of His Noble Kingdom forever and ever.)


The seven dimensions we’re going to tap into in the Genesis Prayer are from highest to lowest:



Chesed 7
 Gevurah 6
 Tiferet 5 
Netzach 4 
Hod 3 
Yesod 2 
Malckut 1

...try picturing them as seven concentric spheres, all separate, yet all part of a whole, and in that scenario we and our dimension, called Malckut, would be in the center.


The Three Columns.



 There is also a connection with these pillars to fire and water or yin and yang. “The three Pillars correspond with Sulphur, Salt and Mercury, which are the three Principles of Alchemy (Ars Regia, the Royal Art). The Pillar of Mercy corresponds with Sulphur, the Pillar of Severity with Salt, and the Middle Pillar with Mercury. Mercury is the Hermetic Androgyne or Hermaphrodite, which is a symbol of the Alchemical Stone (Lapis Mercurius). This stone is represented in Magick by the geometrical figure of the Hexagram, which is made of two interlaced triangles indicating the Union of Fire and Water. Fire (Sol) and Water (Luna) when united produce the element of Air which is symbolic of the Force of Mercury. Mercury (Mercurius) is another name for the Philosopher’s Stone (Lapis Philosophorum) produced by the Union or Hierosgamos of Sulphur and Salt.” 




Tree of Life which is a depiction of ten divine emanations, or characteristics of god. Some of the occult-Kabbalah practitioners believe they can navigate through these emanations and reach the top most Sephirot- that of Kether (Heaven). They can approach this realm through one of three paths or ‘pillars’ (technically there are 22 if you consider jumping around the nodes). The three paths are up the left hand side, the right, or the center:
This center path takes the practitioner from Malkuth (the Earth) and into Kether (Heaven) through the unseen realm call Da’at (or Da’ath). This path is referred to as the “G” path (or camel), which is yet another theory for why we see a “G” in the Freemason compass and square.
Taking the center “G” path leads the follower into the realm known as the Abyss [thru Da'at]...the shortcut

14 Triplets

Abraham, Sarah and Hagar
This first line can be translated numerically to 123149,

that 314 is doubly representative of the specific Name of God, Shaddai, the Almighty—

when Shaddai is spelled out, its numerical value is that of the famous Biblical phrase from Leviticus 19:18, “And you shall love your neighbor as yourself,” [Unconditional Love]


"ANA" spells out 1-5-1. 151 or mikve, a special bath Abraham's guest took...to cleanse away their accumulated negativity,

Abraham is found 151 times in the Pentateuch.
..examining the first three letters of the first vertical column of the prayer = 151
...we’re being immersed in a powerful mikve, Abraham’s mikve, and being purged and cleansed of a tremendous amount of accumulated negativity. It’s as if thick shells or multiple layers of husks were being removed from our being in order to let in the light.

The Qliphoth/Qlippoth/Qlifot or Kelipot 
literally "Peels", "Shells" or "Husks" (from singular: קְלִפָּה  qlippah "Husk"), are the representation of evil or impure spiritual forces in Jewish mysticism, the polar opposites of the holy Sefirot. The realm of evil is also termed Sitra Achra/Aḥra(Aramaic סטרא אחרא, the "Other Side" opposite holiness) in Kabbalah texts.

The Qliphoth are what are called by Occultists, Astral Shells.
...dead and emptied out of any Divine spark

...the shells conceal holiness, as a peel conceals the fruit within.
 They are therefore synonymous with idolatry, the root of impurity through ascribing false dualism in the Divine, and with the Sitra Achra (סטרא אחרא "Other Side"), the perceived realm opposite to holiness. They emerge in the descending seder hishtalshelus (Chain of Being) through Tzimtzum (contraction of the Divine Ohr), as part of the purpose of Creation. In this they also have beneficial properties, as peel protects the fruit, restraining the Divine flow from being dissipated. Kabbalah distinguishes between two realms in qlippot, the completely impure and the intermediate.
Prior to Creation, there was only the infinite Or Ein Sof filling all existence. When it arose in G-d's Will to create worlds and emanate the emanated ... He contracted (in Hebrew "tzimtzum") Himself in the point at the center, in the very center of His light. He restricted that light, distancing it to the sides surrounding the central point, so that there remained a void, a hollow empty space, away from the central point ... After this tzimtzum ... He drew down from the Or Ein Sof a single straight line [of light] from His light surrounding [the void] from above to below [into the void], and it chained down descending into that void. ... In the space of that void He emanated, created, formed and made all the worlds.
— Etz ChaimArizal, Heichal A"K, anaf 2

In contrast to earlier, Medieval Kabbalah, this made the first creative act a concealment/Divine exile rather than unfolding revelation. This dynamic crisis-catharsis in the Divine flow is repeated throughout the Lurianic scheme.
Tree of Life reality” (Etz Ha’Chayim), which refers to the Tree of Life in the middle of the Garden of Eden in Genesis. The Tree of Life is really a code word for the reality beyond our five senses, a reality where the parallel universes coexist and we can be in any one of them we chose. It’s a place where, as in the story of Adam and Eve, anything and everything is available to us at our whim. Think of the Tree of Life as an elevator to a higher dimension.

DELIVER US FROM EVIL, OUR OWN NEGATIVITY Meditate to Cut Out Your Negative Inclinations
This line forms a phrase, kara Satan, which literally means “to tear out Satan,”
also, akar Satan, which means “to pull out Satan,” an even more emphatic version of the meditation/message above, because it helps us pull the negativity out by its roots. They recommend saying both of them: kara Satan and akar Satan.
So when we alter something at the seed level, we’re changing everything that follows.

 CLOSING THE SMALL GATES/STOP BEING REACTIVE Meditate to Not Be Influenced by the Negativity of Others, and Ask for Strength Against Their Provocations
phrase sha’ar katan, which means “small gate.”
 ...post guards at our mouths, ears, and eyes, because we can’t trust our senses, and because when we slip and judge others, we’re really rendering judgment upon ourselves.

AS WE FORGIVE OTHERS/BEING PROACTIVE Ask for the Strength to Get Out of Your Comfort Zone and to Go the Extra Mile
...you need to have certainty in the Light of the Creator.

First Triplet...

Equals 57, "zan", sustenance....can use this coded triplet to draw down sustenance of all types—wealth, health, and relationships—into our lives.

...it’s sustenance through sharing and tithing. Only by sharing can we draw a continuous and endless stream of the Light (life) Force of God into our beings and lives.

PURIFICATION AND HEALING

Because this line has this power to remove negativity at the seed, or most fundamental, level, you can go back or, as we explained before, temporarily shift yourself to an earlier universe and remove the cause of disease long before it can manifest in your body.

The three mikves, cleansing baths or spiritual baptisms.
...can expand your channel of sharing and thus the energy flowing through you by meditating on others.

Well of Miriam
The Talmud says, “Three great leaders led Israel: Moses, Aaron and Miriam. In their merit they received three great gifts: the Well [Miriam], the Clouds of Glory [Aaron] and the Manna [Moses].” When Miriam died, the well was removed as is evidenced by the fact that immediately after the verse “And Miriam died”, There was no water for the community.
...midrash of Miriam’s well, described as "a rabbinic legend that tells of a miraculous well that accompanied the Israelites during their forty years in the desert at the Exodus from Egypt".

Meditate That You’ve Traveled Through a Cosmic Gateway and Are at the Well of Miriam. You Want to Sip from the Water and Ask to Meet Your Soul Mate, Not Just Your Marriage One, but the Others with Whom You Should Do Business, Have Friendships, and So On.
It’s through this well that all this abundance flows rapidly like water, flows right to us, and all we have to do is walk up and take a sip.
Genesis 1:1 is the first verse of the first chapter in the Book of Genesisthe verse consists of 7 words and 28 letters and is as follows:

    the Genesis Prayer, which began with Abraham and the exile in Canaan; continued with Isaac, Jacob, and Yosef and the exile in Egypt; then on through the 42 places in the desert, guided by Moses and Aaron and nourished by the Well of Miriam; all along supported by the Matriarchs, Sarah, Rebecca, Leah, and Rachel; and we finally end up with God, represented by the fully expanded Tetragrammaton (248), in Israel (541) with our connection to eternity. Remember, this all took place within the first 42 letters of the Bible.

    verse. Now, knowing that the function of pi is to take finite objects and convert them into endless ones (lines to circles, and so on), we can see why the sages called the Genesis Prayer “the 42-letter Name of God”; it truly is the alpha and omega, our connection to the endless.

    Now, knowing all that 70 and 422 are associated with, it’s not ironic that the Second Temple was destroyed for lack of unity in 70 C.E., and the First Temple in 422 B.C.E.,
