READING: DAWN MONDAY
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 1rst Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
IN STUDYING THE ZOHAR
Studying The Zohar at this time is much needed
to save and to protect us from all evil, since the
disclosure of this wisdom now, in flawed generations,
is to be a shield for us to wholeheartedly
cling to our Father in Heaven. Previous
generations were men of action and pious, and
the good deeds saved them from the accusers.
Now we are remote from the Higher Root like
the yeast in the barrel. Who will protect us if
not our study of this wisdom?
The Sage Yaakov Tzemach in his introduction to The Tree of Life
Turning the hearts and occupying the minds
with noble thoughts, whose origin is the secrets
of the Torah.
-The Rav Raiah Kook, Mist of Purity, p 65 , Gem of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.
