– PRAYER OF CONCESSION ON FULL MOON

  1. ALL THAT PLEASES THE SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE
    I heard
    All that pleases the spirit of the people. He asked, “But we have
    found that the greatest and most renowned were in disagreement.
    Thus, the spirit of the people is not pleased with it.”
    He answered that they did not say “all the people,” but
    “the spirit of the people.” It means that only the bodies are
    in disagreement, meaning that each is working with the will
    to receive.
    However, “the spirit of the people” is already spirituality. And
    “pleases”—that the righteous that extends the bounty extends
    for the whole generation. And only because they have not yet
    clothed their spirit, they cannot attain and feel the bounty that
    the righteous extended.

-Baal HaSulam, Shamati, page 86-87
