    THE ORDER OF KINDLING THE CHANUKAH LIGHTS


    It is the Chabad custom to place the menorah, on a chair or the like, within the doorway, next to the doorpost
    opposite the mezuzah. On the first of night of Chanukah, one light is kindled at the extreme right of the
    menorah. Each night thereafter, one light is added to the immediate left of the preceding night's light;
    the one that is newly added is kindled first, and the kindling proceeds towards the right. The following
    blessings are recited while standing, and then the lights are kindled.
