BINAH: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 1rst Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
SOURCE OF SUFFERING
Indeed, when all human beings agree to abolish
and eradicate their will to receive for themselves,
and have no other desire but to bestow
upon their friends, all worries and jeopardy in
the world would cease to exist. And we would
all be assured of a whole and wholesome life,
since each of us would have a whole world caring
for us, ready to fulfill our needs.
Yet, while each of us has only a desire to
receive for ourselves, it is the source of all the
worries, suffering, wars, and slaughter we cannot
escape. They weaken our bodies with all
sorts of sores and maladies.
-Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to The Book of Zohar,” Item 19, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.
