Kabbalah4All Transliteration Guidelines

Please note that transliteration guidelines are different according to each culture and also within each movement of Judaism. We have developed these guidelines for use with our transliterated documents. They may or may not apply to transliterations put out by other movements including the various organizations teaching Kabbalah. a ai e ei i o oy u ch g tz as in father as in aisle as in red as in eight as in pizza as in no as in toy as in tune as in Bach in German (strong sound from the throat) as in give as in lots typically adds an EH sound after a consonant, this is known as a Shva Na or pronounced Shva as in the word Shma. a dash is simply used to aid in pronounciation, usually if two like vowels follow each other, as in the word da-at.
In Hebrew, the accent generally falls on the last syllable, however it sometimes falls somewhere else in the word. In our transliteration, when the syllable falls somewhere else other than the last syllable, that stressed syllable will be underlined. Example: Melech.
Hebrew Rules
The following are some of the Hebrew rules you may notice in our siddurim (connection books).
j Kln l k Eg Ui n
In Hebrew, the accent generally falls on the last syllable, however it sometimes falls somewhere else in the word. Whenever a syllable other than the last is accented, a meteg (the vertical line under the first letter) will appear. The masoret above the letter Chaf indicates that this is a Kamatz Katan, which is pronounced as o; in this example the word is kol. The rafe above a letter indicates it is a Shva Na. This example is pronounced yismchu. Note that the rafe does not appear above the first letter of a word that has a Shva as that is ALWAYS a Shva Na.

SIDDUR ISHI
Siddur Ishi is a collection of prayers suited for the individual. Prayer is to the soul what food is to the body. Kabbalah encourages both communal prayer and individual meditation. Most connections are designed to be prayed in community, however there must be an alternative for the individual when they find themselves unable to access communal prayer. These prayers are suitable for individual use on weekdays and should not be used during Shabbat or Festivals, days that community connection is imperative.

BIRCHOT LSHACHARIT BLESSINGS FOR THE MORNING
As we awake in the morning, we should become aware of so many blessings in our lives. Prayer instills appreciation within us and appreciation attracts miracles. We should say each prayer with the consciousness of gratitude.

MODEH ANI
Each morning is a new beginning, our soul is returned to us so that we may fulfill its purpose. We thank the Creator for the restoration of our soul, the One Whose faithfulness in us is abundant.
Men say Modeh /Women say Modah.
Modeh/Modah ani lfanecha,

I offer thanks to You,

ever-living Sovereign,
shehechezarta bi nishmati bchemlah,

that You have restored my soul to me in mercy,

WASHING OF THE HANDS
Our hands attract all sorts of energies, including negative energy. Water has the qualities of Chesed and purification. The word natal literally means to lift. By washing our hands before we engage in any connection or meditation, we are cleansing them and raising them from their mundane tasks to sacred service.
We recite the blessing and then we wash the hands by picking up the pitcher with the left hand and pouring the water over the right hand, then with the right hand pour the water over the left. This procedure is done three times.
Baruch atah Adonai

Blessed are You Hashem,
Eloheinu melech ha-olam,

Elohim, Sovereign of the universe.
asher kidshanu bmitzvotav

You hallow us with Your commandments

BLESSINGS OF THE TORAH
Hillel said that all of Torah is summed up as Love your neighbor as yourself, all the rest is mere commentary, now go and learn. We are called to care about others and to share. These blessings assists us in connecting to the energy of the Torah so that we share the Light of the Creator with others. We must perform a mitzvah after a blessing is said, therefore the verses that follow are from both the Written and Oral Torah.
Baruch atah Adonai,

If you do not have Tefillin or do not wish to wear them, continue on page 17. Please note that we use the Sephardic custom of putting on Tefillin.
]ylypt txnh rdc

PUTTING ON TEFILLIN
Much like a radio that has a transmitter and a receiver that can pick up radio waves and play them for us to hear, the Tefillin give us the ability to tune into spiritual radio waves and connect to the Light. The Tefillin also suggest a relationship of affection and intimacy with the Creator. Wrapping the words of Torah contained in the Tefillin fulfill the command, secure these words as a sign upon your hand, and as an emblem in the center of your head.
Sit while puttin on Tefillin. Place the arm Tefillin upon the bicep of your weaker arm with the loop closest to your body, hold it in place ready for tightening, then recite the blessing:
Baruch atah Adonai,



vtzivanu lhani-ach tfilin.

and bid us to put on Tefillin.

Tighten the arm Tefillin and wrap the strap seven times counter-clockwise around the arm. After the seventh wrap, bring the strap to the outside of your hand and wrap it around to hold it there. Without any interruption whatsoever, put the head Tefillin in place, above the hairline and opposite the space between the eyes. Before tightening the head Tefillin recite the following blessing:
Baruch atah Adonai,



vtzivanu al mitzvot tfilin.

and bid us regarding the commandment of Tefillin.

Tighten the head Tefillin and recite:

Wrap the strap of the hand Tefillin around your palm, then down the middle finger, around the upper half of the middle finger, twice around the lower part of the middle finger (this forms the letter Dalet, the 2nd letter of Shadai), then loop it around the 4th finger and bring it over to the top, bring it around the middle of the palm until the rest of the strap (about 2 inches) is able to be tied to the other straps under the palm. Then recite:

And I will betroth you to Me forever,

and I will betroth you to Me in righteousness,

ANA BCHOACH
Considered by the Kabbalists to be the most powerful and mystical prayer of all; the sequence of Hebrew letters is known as the 42-Letter Name of the Creator. The importance of this prayer is not in the words themselves but in the first letter of each word. The words only help us to make the sounds of each first letter. This prayer can connect us to the energy of healing and before we say it, we should think of others that need healing in order that we too may receive healing in our own lives. Following the Ana BChoach, we have a meditation known as Tikun HaNefesh, literally Correction of the Ego Self. You may wish to use your right hand and place it over the parts of your body as you look at the Divine Name (Tetragrammaton) in each box. The numbers will guide through this meditation which is also used to realign the energy points in our bodies. Some have referred to the Tikun HaNefesh as the Kabbalistic Chakra System. Kabbalah teaches that an angel presides over each day of the week. After the Tikun HaNefesh, take a moment to think about your the day ahead of you and what you need to accomplish. This is a good time of introspection and intention. You can ask yourself questions like: How can I be a channel of Creators Light and love today? If faced with adversity or negativity, how will I respond? When I confront people that are opposed to me how will I behave? Remember, no one can make you feel any way. You are in control of your emotions and your life, you choose if someones negativity will affect you or not.
Now, look at the letters that make up the name of the angel of the day. By doing this, we are invoking that angels protection over us and assistance with all that we may face.

This prayer contains 87 words which equal the numerical value of the word paz which means finest gold. According to ancient tradition, this prayer was transcribed by the Men of the Great Assembly about 2400 years ago from a script that fell from the heavens.
Before we continue with the Baruch She-amar, we recite the following Kabbalistic declaration of intent:
Hareini mzameir et pi lhodot

I now prepare my mouth to thank
ulhaleil ulshabei-ach et bori.

and to laud and to praise my Creator.
Lsheim yichud kudsha

For the sake of the unification of the Holy One,

THE SHMA
The Sh'ma is an affirmation of faith. It both expresses our love for the Creator, and also serves as an ode to the divinity of the soul. Kabbalah teaches that the Shma is the acknowledgement of unity and connects us to Briyah, the World of Creation. It brings the Creators Oneness into our consciousness and reminds us that we must extend unconditional love to all. The enlarged letters r and c form the word c , which means witness. By saying the r Shma, we bear witness to the Creators unity as we declare it to the world. The second verse we say in a whisper because it is the prayer of the angels and we are not ordinarily in a state to say it as they do. Just as the previous blessing expressed the Creators love for us, the blessings that follow the Shma express our love for the Creator. Each section corresponds to one of the letters of the Divine Name.
It is important to say each word clearly and not to run words together. We recite the first verse aloud while covering the eyes with the right hand.
!cg dedi ,Epidl dedi ,l`xUi rnW ` `

ANA BCHOACH
Considered by the Kabbalists to be the most powerful and mystical prayer of all; the sequence of Hebrew letters is known as the 42-Letter Name of the Creator. The importance of this prayer is not in the words themselves but in the first letter of each word. The words only help us to make the sounds of each first letter. This prayer can connect us to the energy of healing and before we say it, we should think of others that need healing in order that we too may receive healing in our own lives. Following the Ana BChoach, we have a meditation known as Tikun HaNefesh, literally Correction of the Ego Self. You may wish to use your right hand and place it over the parts of your body as you look at the Divine Name (Tetragrammaton) in each box. The numbers will guide through this meditation which is also used to realign the energy points in our bodies. Some have referred to the Tikun HaNefesh as the Kabbalistic Chakra System. After you have finished the Tikun HaNefesh, you may look at the letters of the angel for the new day. Keep in mind that Hebrew days begin at evening, so on Sunday night you would look at the name of the angel for Monday.

THE SHMA
The Sh'ma is an affirmation of faith. It both expresses our love for the Creator, and also serves as an ode to the divinity of the soul. Kabbalah teaches that the Shma is the acknowledgement of unity and connects us to Briyah, the World of Creation. It brings the Creators Oneness into our consciousness and reminds us that we must extend unconditional love to all. The enlarged letters r and c form the word c , which means witness. By saying the r Shma, we bear witness to the Creators unity as we declare it to the world. The second verse we say in a whisper because it is the prayer of the angels and we are not ordinarily in a state to say it as they do. Just as the previous blessing expressed the Creators love for us, the blessings that follow the Shma express our love for the Creator. Each section corresponds to one of the letters of the Divine Name.
It is important to say each word clearly and not to run words together. We recite the first verse aloud while covering the eyes with the right hand.

Before we begin the Shma, we must think about the concept of loving our neighbors as we love ourselves. The first verse of the Shma is chanted while we cover our eyes. The second verse is said in a whisper.


Vahavta eit Adonai Elohecha,

bchol lvavcha, uvchol nafshcha,

with all your heart, with all your soul,
uvchol modecha.
Vhayu hadvarim ha-eileh,

asher anochi mtzavcha hayom,

I command you on this day,
al lvavecha.
shall be upon your heart.
Vshinantam lvanecha,
And you shall teach them thoroughly to your children,
vdibarta bam,
and speak of them,
bshivtcha bveitecha,
and while sitting in your house,
uvlechtcha vaderech,
and while walking along the way,
uvshochbcha, uvkumecha.
upon lying down and upon rising.
Ukshartam lot al yadecha,

And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand,

PSALM 91/`v
This Psalm reminds us that our only protection and refuge is in the Most High, and when we put our trust in Hashem we have nothing to fear.

Whoever sits in the refuge of the Most High,

I will say of Hashem, my refuge and my fortress,

Ki hu yatzilcha mipach yakush,

For the One will deliver you from the snare that entraps,
midever havot.
from pestilence that is devistating.
Bevrato yasef lach,

With the Eternals wing will you be covered,
vtachat knafav te-chseh,

and under the Eternals wings will you find refuge,
tzinah vsocheirah amito.

the shield and armor are the Eternals truth.
Lo tira mipachad lailah,

You shall not fear the terror of night,
meicheitz ya-uf yomam.

nor the arrow that flies by day.
Midever ba-ofel yahaloch,

Nor the pestilence that walks in gloom,
miketev yashud tzahorayim.

nor the destroyer who lays waste at noon.
