## What is The 42?

According to the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah, the powerful prayer known as Ana Beco'ach invokes the 42-Letter Name of God, which connects to no less than the undiluted force of creation. Kabbalists teach that reciting the Prayer on a regular basis activates angelic forces to create miracles, both in your everyday life and for the world at large. 

Consisting of seven sentences with six letters each, the 42-Letter Name of God has been shown to be one of the most powerful prayers in the universe. 

For an experienced Kabbalah practitioner, who typically recites this connection at least twice a day, it allows you to hide the text and audio guidance, enabling you to be one-on-one with this powerful connection.

It presents The Angels of the Day meditation, following the verse for the current day of the week based on the user’s local timezone. The 42 letters scanning progresses to the 72 Names of God connection, and concluded with the silent ‘Baruch Shem’ verse. The connection sequence is dynamically adjusted for the current month in the Hebrew lunisolar calendar, the current date, and the time of day.

Features:
1. Interface Configurability: optional context related instructions
2. Large white Hebrew letters are displayed on the dark background for excellent visibility
3. Triadic color scheme for a balanced display of the verses and guidance text 
4. Animated verse highlighting to help with scanning direction
5. Hands-free automatic swiping, with different interval presets
6. Audio guidance in English, Spanish, and Russian

The iPad version of this application is available for download in the App Store.

### 4/5 — I love this app

*2024-02-12*

But the audio doesn’t work

### 4/5 — Tiny blue letter on dark moving background

*2024-01-08*

It is so hard to read without a magnifying glass. 
That is why I have it 4 stars. If I find a way to change font size I will come back and change to 5 stars.  I just got the app I love that it pronounces the words so I can repeat them

### 5/5 — App is wonderful

*2023-04-29*

I thought that it was missing the last two lines of the Ana Beco’ach but they are AFTER the body scan. It may be helpful to have a sort of “Table of Contents” for new people who may not be aware that there is a whole body scan that breaks up the first 5 lines from the last two or the last page of the scan should have a flashing swipe arrow so you can know that there is more. I had left a not so good review after I bought the paid version and I was still having the same problem but thankfully I looked at another Ana Bekoach app that I have and the last two lines immediately played after the body scan and THAT is what prompted me to go back and keep swiping and so I found the last two lines.

### 5/5 — Powerful

*2022-06-12*

This prayer opens channels to the Creator in ways that we don’t have to understand in order to receive the blessing thereof. I wish to thank the creators of this app who are truly doing the Lords work in making such a tool available for all of us who don’t have deeper Kabbalistic training. Thank you, and let the peace and joy that is spread from the use of this app be sent back to you 7 fold.

### 5/5 — Doubt

*2021-07-14*

I’m giving 5 stars but the “ angel of the day “ is written in Hebrew. I don’t speak that :( other than that, great app

### 5/5 — Most Transformative App I Own

*2021-07-08*

I use this app daily. It’s the most effective use of time of my life thanks to the layout and design. It has commentary that allows me to transform negativity into happiness for not only myself but the entire world. It’s amazing. Grateful bah

### 1/5 — Sound

*2019-10-07, version 2.5.1*

There is no side within the app. No voice guidance or prayer guidance. Help, please.

### 5/5 — Must Have Daily Meditation

*2019-07-13*

My wife and I have been using this app for years on a daily basis for our morning prayers. The settings options offer great flexibility in using the parts of the various prayers with or without guidance and special effects; depending on users wants and needs. Gabriel the developer is highly responsive to any  questions and the app works well on all of our ipads and iphones. This app is hands down the best tool short of the Zohar itself for your daily meditation!
