KETER: SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER

SHACHARIT שַחֲרִית MORNING PRAYER and The 4th Tefilat HaAmidah תפילת העמידה of Shemoneh Esreh (שמנה עשרה‎) The Prayer of Eighteen Sefirot.

PRIMARY REWARD FROM THE MITZA

The primary reward from the Mitzva [commandment]
is the Metzaveh [the commander],
which is the Godly adhesion and the spiritual
delight in carrying out the Mitzva, which is
the reception of the face of Divinity. Without
that, it would be called Mitzva vacuously,
for it would be without vitality or soul, and
would only be the body of the Mitzva. Indeed,
it is called “a Mitzva” only for the passion and
the adhesion of the Godly part that dwells
within to the Root, with all the parts of Israel.
It is known that in every Godly work, both in
speech and in action, there are body and soul,
reviving that speech or that action. Without
it, it would have no livelihood. This is why
the wicked in their lives are called “dead,” for
their actions are devoid of livelihood.

-Rabbi Menahem Nachum Twersky of Chernobyl,
Maor Einayim [Light of the Eyes], VaYera, p 4, Gems of Wisdom, published by Bnei Baruch.

Numbers Chapter 11 בְּמִדְבַּר

יז וְיָרַדְתִּי, וְדִבַּרְתִּי עִמְּךָ שָׁם, וְאָצַלְתִּי מִן-הָרוּחַ אֲשֶׁר עָלֶיךָ, וְשַׂמְתִּי עֲלֵיהֶם; וְנָשְׂאוּ אִתְּךָ בְּמַשָּׂא הָעָם, וְלֹא-תִשָּׂא אַתָּה לְבַדֶּךָ.

17 And I will come down and speak with thee there; and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.
