Each of the Hebrew Months has a link below. To see all of the Tzadikim (Righteous Men or Women) for a given month click on the link for that month.
One of the Tools that Kabbala teaches is to connect to a Tzadik (righteous person). The method to connect to a righteous person is to follow the following ritual:
1. Learn his death anniversary
or if this information is not available the days of Erev Rosh Chodesh, Rosh Chodesh, and the 15th day of the Hebrew months can be utilized for a connection.
2. Light a 25 hour candle in his or her honor. There is no specific Blessing. Some say the following. This candle is being lit In the merit of ______________.
3. Learn about the person including History, Culture, Writings, and Teachings.
4. Study some of his teaching or writings.
There are some Tzadikim that we do not know their particular Hilula (Death Anniversay). Click the Hidden Tzadikim Link for the list of their names. Erev Rosh Chodesh, Rosh Chodesh, and the Day of the Full Moon (15th day of each Hebrew Month) are good days to connect to these Tzadikim.
