NETZACH: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 4th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
ORDER OF STEPS
Great merit is required in order to understand
the Peshat of the texts, since first we
must attain the three internal parts of the
Torah, which the Peshat robes, and the Peshat
will not be parsed…
It is the opposite of the argument of the
negligent in attaining the interior, who say to
themselves: “We settle for attaining the Peshat.
If we attain that, we will be content.” Their
words can be compared to one who wishes to
step on the fourth step without first stepping
on the first three steps.
-Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to the Book,
Panim Meirot uMasbirot,” Item 1, 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.

Psalms Chapter 37 תְּהִלִּים
י וְעוֹד מְעַט, וְאֵין רָשָׁע; וְהִתְבּוֹנַנְתָּ עַל-מְקוֹמוֹ וְאֵינֶנּוּ.
10 And yet a little while, and the wicked is no more; yea, thou shalt look well at his place, and he is not.
