Inner Purification through Yichudim

Inner Purification through Yichudim (Unifications)

There are outer purifications and inner purifications – the outer corresponds to confession and
repentance, and the rite of baptism; the inner corresponds to unification of the aspects of the soul
and the Divine Names. According to the masters of the tradition, the outer purification must
precede the inner purifications, for until the negative action is brought to cessation in the mind,
heart and body, the subtle body and energetic dimension of the soul cannot be purified because
the active link to the klippot remains.

When outer purification has been performed and an initiate of the Holy Tradition seeks to
accomplish inner purification, they will intone the Shema and meditate upon the corresponding
Divine Name or Sefirah to the aspect of the soul in need of purification – through meditation on the
Name they will draw that aspect of their soul into Yichud, unification, and it is in so doing that the
inner purification is accomplished.

Nefesh corresponds to Olam Ha-Asiyah and the Name of Adonai, and the subtle body within and
behind the earthly zelem is formed of the energy of nefesh; thus, to purify the nefesh and subtle
body the initiate will meditate upon Adonai (Alef-Dalet-Nun-Yod) with full kavvanah and devekut,
immersing themselves, as it were, in the power of the Holy Name of God.

They will envision the Holy Letter of the Name before them in a vertical configuration, as though
formed of blazing fire, and as they intone the Name they will envision this Holy Fire flashing forth,
purifying them; then, as the chant comes to an end, they will envision the image of the Name
dissolve and gather itself at the top of their head as a Yod, and envision this Yod become fluid
flowing Holy Fire pouring down into them, transforming their body into Flaming Fire, purifying
them entirely of all sin and klippot at the level of nefesh. They will abide in union with the Holy
Name, and when their mind is set into motion again they will give praise and thanks corresponding
to Adonai-Malkut, and they will pray for blessings and empowerments corresponding to Adonai, and
so they will pray that all spirits and souls might be purified and sanctified in this way.

Ruach corresponds to Olam Ha-Yetzirah, the World of Angels, and Name of Yahweh, and the spirit
or intelligence, the light-power, in nefesh corresponds to ruach; thus, to purify the ruach the
initiate will meditate upon Yahweh (Yod-He-Vau-He) with full kavvanah and devekut, immersing
themselves in the power of the Great Name of the Lord.

The method is the same as with Adonai, but the Holy Letters are envisioned as though formed of
golden sunlight.

Neshamah corresponds to Olam Ha-Beriyah, the World of Archangels, and the Name Eheieh, having
the power of Yechidah and Hayyah in it, and it corresponds to the Supernal Zelem, or Body of the
Resurrection, the divine nature within ruach and nefesh; thus to purify neshamah the initiate will
meditate upon Eheieh (Alef-He-Yod-He) as with Adonai and Yahweh – but the Holy Letters of
Eheieh will be envisioned as white brilliance, diamond-like light sparkling with rainbow hues.

*In truth, the holy neshamah is never tainted, stained or impure in her essence and nature, but as
she “remembers” all that takes place in the incarnation of the soul, she retains the most subtle
karmic matrix, and it is this that is purified through unification with Eheieh.

The fruition of the inner purifications is the unification of Eheieh with Ain Sof – thus, when the
initiate has unified her or his soul with Eheieh, they enact the *Clear Light Dissolution*,
disappearing like a rainbow in the sky; when they reappear they arise as the image of Hayyah
Yeshua, the Risen Messiah, and meditating upon the Blessed Name, and they extend blessings to all
living spirits and souls, all beings.

In this way, following the outer purification, the inner purification is accomplished.

If and when there has been a great sin, the generation of a powerful negative karma, or there is a
strong habitual tendency towards a sin or karmic link with a potent klippah, other purifications
may be included in this practice of inner purification through Yichudim.

If there is a difficulty with desire, greed or lust, then unification with Shaddai El Hai may be
performed, these Holy Letters being formed of subtle moon-like light. If there is difficulty with
fear, anger or hatred, then unification with Elohim can be performed, with Holy Letters of black
fire upon a field of white brilliance – hence radiant consuming darkness that absorbs even the
greatest forms of negativity.

In a similar manner, if there is a plague of shades and shadows, or unwanted spirits, unification
with Yahweh Elohim Tzavaot will purify of this; and if there is a plague of inauspicious
circumstances and vital reactions, the unification with El will serve to purify the soul.

All obstructions to the breakthrough to Supernal Consciousness are purified through unification
with Yahweh Elohim; and all obstructions to life-force are purified through unification with Yah.

If and when there is any breech of the Ten Commandments, the corresponding tikkune can be
brought about through unification of the soul with the corresponding Divine Name and Sefirah;
likewise, the klippah of any vice corresponding to a Holy Sefirah can be dispelled and the holy
spark uplifted in the same way.

Unification of the soul with the Divine Names can be followed by the invocation of the Holy
Archangels, and prayers to the archangels in the Divine Name for the redemption or tikkune of all
souls that have become bound up in the dominion of the klippah, the uplifting of all in the Risen
Messiah.

Here we must remind that the tikkune of your soul is the tikkune of the world, the tikkune of the
World of Angels and tikkune of the World of the Sefirot – when you perform the inner purifications
through Yichudim, you invoke blessings upon yourself and the world, and all are greatly blessed by
the power of Ha-Shem in the Risen Messiah. To bring about such unification you need only have full
kavvanah and devekut upon The Name, abiding in your faith without any shadow of doubt, aware
of the mercy and forgiveness of Ha-Shem in the Risen Messiah.

*This practice may be coupled to Giving & Receiving, Giving & Receiving Meditation being
performed first, and then this practice bringing it to fruition. Also, in a similar manner, the
Purification with Metatron may be joined to it, this practice being used following Purification with
Metatron as taught in the tradition.

This is a spiritual practice from the Order of St. Gabriel that is good for the novice and advanced
practitioner alike, and it is also used by initiates of the Order of St. Raphael in their healing work,
as well as by initiates of the Order of St. Lazarus in their spiritual work with the dying and dead.

When there is confession and repentance, through this practice holy tzaddikim are often able to
release souls from sin or negative karma – joining their soul to the soul of the person seeking the
fruition of mercy and forgiveness the tzaddik brings the person's soul into unification, thus
purifying it; thus, with adepts and masters of the tradition this practice serves in much the same
way as Giving & Receiving. The full power of a holy tzaddik engaging this practice for a soul,
however, is dependent upon the person's faith, their confession and repentance, and desire to

receive spiritual assistance – those who draw close receive the greatest blessings of love.

*This practice is also a method of the transference of consciousness at the time of death – the
Shema is intoned and this practice is performed on behalf of the dying person.

Receiving Imma’s Force from above, may we be empowered to redeem the Serpent and uplift
all in unification with the Light Continuum, Yahweh; amen.

Blessings & shalom!
