NETZACH: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER

SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 13th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh ( שמנה עשרה‎ ) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.

REGARDING EGOISM

Regarding the term “egoism,” I am not referring
to the original egoism. Rather I am referring
primarily to the narrow egoism. This is
because the original egoism is only self-love,
which is its entire positive, individual force of
existence. In that respect, it does not altogether
contradict the altruistic force, although it
does not serve it.
However, it is in the nature of egoism
that as it is used, it becomes extremely narrow,
for it is more or less obliged to take
on the nature of hatred and exploitation of
others, in order to ease one’s own existence.
That does not refer to abstract hatred, rather
to what is revealed in acts of exploitation of
one’s friend for one’s own benefit, becoming
increasingly foul according to its degrees,

such as cunningness, theft, robbery, and
murder. This is called “narrow egoism,” and
in that respect it contradicts and is the complete
opposite of the love of others. This is
the negative force that destroys the society.

-Baal HaSulam, “The Nation”, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

TZADIKIM צדיקים PRAYER FOR THE OLD RIGHTEOUS

Show compassion Adonai, our God, for the righteous, for the pious, for the elders of Your people, the House of Israel, and to the remnant of their sages, and to righteous converts, and to us. And give a good reward to all who truly trust in Your name. And let our lot be with them forever, that we will be proud that we have put our trust in you. Blessed are You, Adonai, who is the support and trust for the righteous.

Psalms Chapter 44 תְּהִלִּים

יא  תְּשִׁיבֵנוּ אָחוֹר, מִנִּי-צָר;    וּמְשַׂנְאֵינוּ, שָׁסוּ לָמוֹ.
