The purpose and function of the Mitzvah of Mezuzah and how it elevates the home:[1]
It is a mitzvah for the mezuzah to be placed on the right doorpost entering into the room or home. The reason for this is as follows: The entire purpose and function of the Mitzvah of Mezuzah is one of elevation from below to above, known as Healah. Not only is it part of the group of Mitzvahs that serve the purpose of elevation, but it is also regarded as the principal Mitzvah of elevation. Its purpose is to elevate the home and everything that is inside of it, including all of the furniture and items found in its drawers, closets, and cabinets. It all becomes elevated to be nullified in the face of the love of God. This is why the Mezuzah contains the paragraphs of Veahavata and Vehaya Im Shamoa, as its entire purpose is one of affection and love in embracing God, and giving up all of one’s belongings for the sake of God. It is likewise for this reason that we are commanded the Mezuzah on the right side of the door, as the right represents love as the verse states in his right hand hugs me, and as a person who comes to embrace his friend goes towards him in which case he hugs him with his right side.
