☀️ SATURDAY PRAYER: HOCHMA-SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER
READING: DAWN SATURDAY
SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The MUSAF מוּסָף FOR SHABBAT: of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
“THE MITZVA OF TORAH”
Hence, the student pledges, prior to the study,
to strengthen himself in faith in the Creator
and in His guidance in reward and punishment,
as our sages said, “Your landlord is liable
to reward you for your work.” One should aim
one’s labor to be for the Mitzvot of the Torah,
and in this way, he will be imparted the pleasure
of the Light in it. His faith will strengthen
and grow through the remedy in this Light, as
it is written, “It shall be health to thy navel,
and marrow to thy bones” (Proverbs 3:8).
Then one’s heart shall rest assured that
from Lo Lishma he will come to Lishma. Thus,
even one who knows about himself that he
has not been rewarded with faith, still has
hope through the practice of Torah.
For if one sets one’s heart and mind to
attain faith in the Creator through it, there is
no greater Mitzva than that.
-Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to The Study of the Ten Sefirot,” Item 17, Gem of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.
