SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 4th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה‎) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.

CORRECTIONS OF THE HEART

Come and see the words of the sage, Rabbi
Even Ezra in his book, Yesod Mora, p 8b: “And
now note and know that all the Mitzvot that
Torah and Mitzvot are written in the Torah or the conventions that the fathers have established, although
they are mostly in action or in speech, they
are all in order to correct the heart, ‘for the
Lord searches all hearts, and understands all
the imaginations of the thoughts.’”

.- Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to the Book,
Panim Meirot uMasbirot,” Item 10, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

Numbers Chapter 11 בְּמִדְבַּר

יז וְיָרַדְתִּי, וְדִבַּרְתִּי עִמְּךָ שָׁם, וְאָצַלְתִּי מִן-הָרוּחַ אֲשֶׁר עָלֶיךָ, וְשַׂמְתִּי עֲלֵיהֶם; וְנָשְׂאוּ אִתְּךָ בְּמַשָּׂא הָעָם, וְלֹא-תִשָּׂא אַתָּה לְבַדֶּךָ.

17 And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.

FOR UNITY, PURIFICATION OF SOUL, AND ADHESION WITH THE CREATOR, OUR GOD.
