PRAYING IN ORDER TO CHANGE
-Rav Michael Laitman
Accordingly, all the prayers Kabbalah describes constitute man’s plea to be transformed. Who does one address these to, a wall? If the Creator is constant, eternal, and complete, then He doesn’t react to you in any way.
However, when you appeal to Him, you become different and receive a different response because you increase your sensitivity while doing so. You are still present in the same constant field regarded as the “Creator,” in the same constant force. Yet you are praying while wishing to change, and as a result, this field affects you with greater intensity. This is what we call a “prayer.”
The word “to pray” in Hebrew (Lehitpalel) means self-imposed judgment. “To pray” means to judge, evaluate, and rebuke oneself. It isn’t an appeal to someone, in order to be shown mercy or favored. No, it is self re-evaluation. This is what a prayer is.
Hence, although religions use the same word, in Kabbalah it has an opposite meaning, much like everything else.

The 18th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.
OPENING OF THE STANDING PRAYER: In gratitude for 3 descents before the Amidah.
Blessed are you, Adonai …
HODA´AH: THANKSGIVING
Empower our prayer for GRATITUDE.
MODIN DERABBANAN (THE THANKSGIVING OF THE RABBI): THANKING THE ONLY SOURCE, FOR THE MANIFESTED DESIRES, AND AS WE RETURN TO THE PHASE OF THE NEW MOON READY FOR THE NEXT OFFERED DEFICIENCIES TO BE ADMINISTERED.
A new moon, which must be blessed, symbolizes Malchut that has nothing of its own, meaning our substance, a human being who receives everything from THE ONLY SOURCE-
So, the moon must specifically be blessed, not when it is full, but at the new moon, when it is not evident how it receives the light of the sun, when it doesn’t shine. And then it is time for us to sanctify it. That is, a person must accept the yoke of the kingdom of Heaven upon himself during the lowest phase, and say that it is even in this state, which cannot be any lower, entirely above reason, without intellectual and emotional support, where he builds his foundation.
