The Rebbe shlit"a said Torah on the verse "When you light the lamps," and explained that the lighting of the Menorah brought about Torah and fear of Heaven through the insights gained by looking into the lights of the holy Menorah. This shows the power of a holy sight, the image of a tzaddik, or looking into holy books, and on the other hand the great damage of a forbidden sight. The Creator created the eyes to be used for good and for holiness, and when one guards his eyes there is great abundance.
