The Tikunim of the ARI

Warning: if you read this and get depressed since doing Teshuva seems very far then you should know that Hashem has a lot of mercy on our generation and he knew that most people would be unable to carry out the harsh Segufim that are brought down in the earlier sefarim. He therfore sent us the Holy Tzadik Rebbe Nachman of Breslev who revealed much easier ways for a person to rectify his actions.

Also there are a number of Tikunim where a person redeams the fasts with money given to charity and it is important to know the amount.

These are the Tikunim that were given over from the Holy Ari for various sins. He received them from Heaven through Ruach Hakodesh or directly from the prophet Eliyaho. These are the amount of fasts need to rectify the damage done by these specific sins.

A person who has only committed a specific sin once should do the set of fasts one time. A person who has committed a specific sin a number of times should do each set no less then three times.

There is a shortcut for doing the fasts. A 2 day fast - 48 hours with no food or drink is counted as 27 fasts. A 3 day fast - 72 hours with no food or drink is counted as 40 fasts. A person is not allowed to brake up one of those fasts. Meaning if a person needs 10 fast to complete a set he is not allowed to do a 2 day fast and use 10 of the 27 fasts for his first set and the remaining 13 for the next set.

Fast should be accepted the day before during Mincha. The Kavonot for the Tikunim are brought down in Shar Roach Hakodesh in the Kitvi Hari. Even if a person does not have the ability to do the Kavanot it is still a huge Tikun if he does the fasts.
