Rare Blessings for Abundant Livelihood, Handwritten by the Ben Ish Chai
" ... awaken abundance from the upper hand, to descend to the Jewish people, as it says - You open Your Hand and satisfy the desire of every living being ... G-d help us, protect us and assist us always ..." (from the Ben Ish Chai's blessings)
[2] pages loaded with blessings for abundant livelihood, handwritten by the mighty author, Rabbeinu Yosef Chaim of Baghdad, author of Ben Ish Chai. The novellae discuss the secret of the Jewish people's abundance, and contain verses and rare blessings for abundant livelihood, in a manuscript by the Ben Ish Chai, which is renowned as an amulet for protection and success. Rare and sacred.
Manuscripts by the Ben Ish Chai were used by Oriental Jews in general and Iraqi Jews in particular, as expert amulets, tried-and-true, for healing, livelihood and protection. This manuscript goes further, as it deals with the secret of the Jewish people's abundance, and contains explicit verses and rare blessings for abundant livelihood, including the verse "You open Your Hand and satisfy the desire of every living being" (which also appears fully written out in this manuscript). The Ar"i maintains that the Name combinations implied therein (פא"י, סא"ל, חת"ך) are pipelines of abundance.
Another superior virtue of this manuscript by the Ben Ish Chai is that, in general, manuscripts by the Ben Ish Chai end with the blessing: "G-d help us, protect us and assist us always ..." - the blessing with which he concluded his sermons - and in this manuscript, the Ben Ish Chai increased this blessing, repeating it five times (!) in his very hand.
