Now is your time to be blessed with all good, and free yourself from all agony. The Pidyon Rashash has it all!
Reb Chaim Vital performed this renowned Pidyon for himself every year. He writes in his Sefer Pri Eitz Chaim “Thousands of times this segulah has been tried and proven“.
While the Arizal revealed this powerful pidyon, it was the holy Reshash who instructed how to perform it, The Reshash wrote that one should set aside 160 pure silver coins, recite special Kabalistic Tefilos, and donate these coins to Talmidei Chachamim who are Moser Nefesh to learn Torah.
The 160 coins, equivalent to the numerical value of “Eitz”, symbolize man who is likened to a tree, through this Segulah, the person receives a Pidyon Nefesh (redemption of his soul) where judgment is transferred from the person to the coins and the person receives a new Tzelem Elokim.
The Pidyon Rashash is cited and referred to in countless Sefarim. Many illustrious Gedolim and Rebbes have quoted and performed the renowned Pidyon Rashash.
The sefer Shemen Sason writes that for whoever the Pidyon Rashash is performed will certainly live through the year! Who can deny themselves the promise of life?! The Sefer Sha’arei Rachamim describes the Pidyon Reshash as a segulah received from Eliyahu HaNavi, himself.
While the Segulah is tremendously potent every time, it is particularly powerful after midnight. When the Ropshitzer Rav was sick, the Ateres Tzvi wrote to the Zera Kodesh that he would perform the Pidyon Rashash for him after Chatzos and “certainly, certainly, certainly, you will merit a Yeshua!”
We are living in desperate times. Klal Yisroel is looking out for Refuos, Shidduchim, Nachas, Parnassah, etc. It is Mekubal that often times there are wonderful Hashpaos and Yeshuos waiting to come down, but we are not worthy of them. Once the Pidyon Rashash is performed, one becomes pure, with a new Tzelem Elokim, clearing the path for the Hashpaos Tovos to descend.
Every year, on 10 Shvat, on the yahrtzeit of the Reshash, the Kollel Chatzos Mekubalim perform this Segulah and distribute the coins amongst the Kollel learners. These Talmidei Chachamim, who sacrifice their nights for Torah, are most worthy to perform the Pidyon, for they truly personify Torah with Mesirus Nefesh. They recite the lengthy Tefilos individually for each supplicant, and each Pidyon is performed individually for every name in the most Mehudar way. And perform the Pidyon at the most opportune time – after Chatzos.
