NETZACH: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER

SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 10th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה‎) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.

TORAH AND MITZVOT

When concealment overpowers one and he
comes to a state where the work becomes
tasteless, and he cannot picture and feel any
love and fear, and he cannot do anything in
holiness, then his only counsel is to cry to the
Creator to take pity on him and remove the
screen from his eyes and heart.
The issue of crying is a very important
one. It is as our sages write: “all the gates were
locked except for the gates of tears.” The world
asks about that: If the gates of tears are not
locked, what is the need for the gates at all?…
Thus, when were the gates of tears not locked?
Precisely when all the gates were locked. It is
then that there is room for the gates of tears
and then one sees that they were not locked.
However, when the gates of prayer are
open, the gates of tears and weeping are irrelevant.
This is the meaning of the gates of
tears being locked. Thus, when are the gates
of tears not locked? Precisely when all the
gates are locked, the gates of tears are open.
This is because one still has the counsel of
prayer and plea.
This is the meaning of “My soul shall
weep in secret,” meaning when one comes to
a state of concealment, then “My soul shall
weep,” because one has no other option.

יח  כִּי, לֹא-תַחְפֹּץ זֶבַח וְאֶתֵּנָה;    עוֹלָה, לֹא תִרְצֶה.
