GEVURAH: 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.

CHOICE OF GOOD ENVIRONMENT

One cannot raise oneself above one’s circle.
Hence, one must suck from one’s environment.
And one has no other counsel, except
through much work and Torah. Therefore, if
one chooses for oneself a good environment,
one saves time and efforts, since one is drawn
according to one’s environment.

-Baal HaSulam, Shamati [I Heard], Article no. 225, “Raising Oneself” , 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 40 תְּהִלִּים

י  בִּשַּׂרְתִּי צֶדֶק, בְּקָהָל רָב–    הִנֵּה שְׂפָתַי, לֹא אֶכְלָא:
יְהוָה,    אַתָּה יָדָעְתָּ.

10 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation, lo, I did not refrain my lips; {N}
O LORD, Thou knowest.
