YESOD: 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.

TO BE WARMED BY ITS SACRED LIGHT

Because faith has generally diminished, specifically
faith in the holy men, the wise men
of all generations. And the books of Kabbalah
and The Zohar are filled with corporeal
parables. Therefore, people are afraid lest
they will lose more than they will gain, since
they could easily fail with materializing. And
this is what prompted me to compose a sufficient
interpretation to the writings of the
Ari, and now to the Holy Zohar. And I have
completely removed that concern, for I have
evidently explained and proven the spiritual
meaning of everything, that it is abstract and
devoid of any corporeal image, above space
and above time, as the readers will see, to allow
the whole of Israel to study The Book of
Zohar and be warmed by its sacred Light.

-Baal HaSulam, “Introduction to The Book of Zohar,” Item 58, 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.

FOR UNITY, PURIFICATION OF SOUL, AND ADHESION WITH THE CREATOR, OUR GOD.
