The Maor VaShemesh writes, “On motzei Shabbos kodesh, when the neshamah yeseirah leaves, an imprint of its holiness remains, as known to the experts in kabbalah.”

Similarly, the imprint and impression of Chanukah will remain with us the entire year, and for eternity. As one great chassid said, “The holiday doesn’t pass. It enters.” It becomes a part of us, acquired for eternity. ~ R’ Elimelech Biderman Shlita
