in chabad chassidus its explained that lag beomer being the yom hilulah of rashbi, on that day he taught many things he never taught before that day, (because) that the final day of a righteous person’s earthly life marks the point at which all their deeds, teachings and work achieve their culminating perfection and the zenith of their impact upon our lives. So each Lag BaOmer, we celebrate Rabbi Shimon’s life and the revelation of the esoteric soul of Torah.
penimius hatorah is a revelation of penemius atik – simple put, its a revelation of hashem’s light – or ein sof, (niglah is the torah the way it comes down to this world) when that light is revealed there are many supernatural things, thats why rashbi did wonders simply by saying torah (unlike other tanaim needed to daven) thats why on such a day, the rebbes – the neshama of rashbi and teachers of his torah – were able to give brachos for children in a sprcial way. see more about this in all the maamarim of lag beomer
