The Bat Ayin Hillula: A Meal in Honor of the Tzaddik

Gather together, study his teachings and share stories of the tzaddik's greatness.

The Bat Ayin Segulah and the Hillula Meal

A cherished tradition associated with the author of Bat Ayin is the segulah—a spiritual practice—of holding a meal in honor of his hillula, the anniversary of his passing. Participants share his teachings, speak about his greatness and strengthen their faith and prayer. Many stories tell of people who experienced deliverance after holding a meal in his honor.
