YESOD: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 7th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
THE ESSENTIALITY OF SOUL
I see that the primary reason for the lack of
success in everything being done to strengthen
Judaism and Israel’s status everywhere,
is that the Divine Light has been neglected,
completely abandoned by heart and mind.
Everyone is now turning to correct simple
ultra-orthodoxy alone, as if the world could
be revived in a body with no soul.
-Rav Raiah Kook, Letters 1, 160-161, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.
