THURSDAY PRAYER: YESOD-SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER

READING: DAWN THURSDAY

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

“PRIOR TO PRAYING”

When one goes to pray to the Creator to
help him, he must first prepare and examine
himself, to see what he has and what he
is missing, and then he can know for what
to ask the Creator’s help. This is the meaning
of the words, “Out of the depths I have
called upon You, O Lord.” “Depth” means
that a person is in the lowest possible state,
as it is written, “Depths of the nether-world,”
meaning his deficiency is below and he feels
that he is beneath all other people.
In other words, he feels so remote from
Kedusha [holiness], more than all other people,
meaning that no one feels the truth, that his
body has no connection to Kedusha. Hence,
those people who do not see the truth—that
they are remote from Kedusha—can be satisfied
with their work in the holy work. But he
is suffering from the state he is in.

-Rabash, Steps of the Ladder, “He Hears the Prayer”, Gem of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

CONCLUSION OF SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER.

Psalms Chapter 59 תְּהִלִּים

ה  בְּלִי-עָוֺן, יְרֻצוּן וְיִכּוֹנָנוּ;    עוּרָה לִקְרָאתִי וּרְאֵה.

4 For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul; the impudent gather themselves together against me; {N}
not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.
