READING: DAWN TUESDAY
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 4th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
MAKE YOURSELF A RAV AND BUY YOURSELF A FRIEND
Our sages said, “Make for yourself a rav and
buy yourself a friend.” This means that one
can make a new environment for oneself.
This environment will help him obtain the
greatness of his rav through love of friends
who appreciate the rav. Through the friends’
discussing the greatness of the rav, each of
them receives the sensation of his greatness.
Thus, bestowal upon one’s rav will become
reception and sufficient motivation to an extent
that will bring one to engage in Torah
and Mitzvot Lishma.
They said about that, “The Torah is acquired
by forty-eight virtues, by serving of
sages and by meticulousness with friends.”
This is so because besides serving the rav, one
needs the meticulousness of friends, as well,
the friends’ influence, so they will affect him
the obtainment of his rav’s greatness. This is
so because obtaining the greatness depends
entirely on the environment, and an individual
cannot do a thing about it whatsoever.
–Baal HaSulam, “A Speech for the Completion of The Zohar”, Gem of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.
