Interesting approbation by Rebbe Chaim of Sanz, close disciple of the author, at the beginning of part I. He writes there that he at first did not approve to the printing of the holy teachings of R.

However, on second thought, I decided that it was good that the printers published these writings. It is known that R. Chaim Vital also refrained from publishing his novellae and the teachings he received from his teacher, the Ari, and did not allow his disciples to write them; nevertheless, the righteous of the generation made efforts to copy, write and publish them, and the world shone…".
Part II was used to prepare the Jerusalem 1954 edition. Handwritten markings of the printer throughout and folding marks in the middle of leaves, in preparation for the printing of the new edition.
