==== Kabbalah and the symbol of light{{Citation needed|reason=Completely unclear section|date=December 2024}} ==== {{Blockquote|This is alluded to in the verses: "Though I walk through the valley of the deepest darkness, I will fear no evil, because You are with me"<ref>''[[Book of psalms]]''</ref> and "because even if I have fallen, I will rise again; even if I feel in the darkness, [[Hashem]] is my light. "Let the light of Divinity perceptions descend into the depths of "darkness ", into "the valley of the deepest darkness", to illuminate the lowest, so that even that light and consciousness of Divinity reaches them, so that He can heal and correct them to return them to Him.<ref>Rabbi Nathan, Moshe Mykoff. ''Likutey Halajot: ORAJ JAIM Hashkamat Haboker'' [[Breslov Research Institute]]</ref>}} In Kabbalah ''Or Panim'' ("the light of the Face") is a fundamental conception for the process called [[Tohu and Tikun|Tikkun]]. All the ''Kavvanot'', the spiritual measures of faith for the realization of the Kingdom of God, focus on the manifestation of the ''Or Panim''; actually darkness is in itself a negative element, that is, it does not give the [[hope]] of obtaining complete devotion: "darkness" is like an inaccessible place, darkness conceals the depth of the gaze; in [[Chassidut]] ''an awakening from below'' is the "service" for God, i.e. the [[Avodah]]{{Citation needed|reason=Incomprehensible punctuation pangram without reference|date=December 2024}}. During the victory of the [[Holiness in Judaism|Kedushah]] in Hanukkah, the [[Kohen Gadol]] almost declared that ''divine light'' must triumph. When the risk of "fall" can do the loss of [[faith]] in the Jewish religion as the abyss of Israel's personal and collective identity, the Kohen Gadol thus insists for the "awakening" of the most distant [[soul]]s in order to direct them with [[Kavanah]] towards the fulfillment of the [[Mitzvot]]: ''...because the [[Torah]] is the light and the [[Mitzvah]] is a lamp''{{Citation needed|reason=Incomprehensible punctuation pangram without reference|date=December 2024}}.
