The Holy Ari: "The Arizal himself wrote relatively little. From his own hand we have novellae on two Talmudic tractates. These have been included in his teacher's 'Shittah Mekubetzet.' His writings in Kabbala were included in Rabbi Chaim Vital's Etz Chaim and are marked by Rabbi Chaim with the preface 'found written in manuscript.' There is also a commentary on a small section of the Zohar and a few hymns for the Sabbath from the master himself. The bulk of his teachings were recorded by his disciples, in numerous works, primarily by Rabbi Chaim Vital"
