Shacharit

And one opinion says, Tfilos avos tiknum, that they were instituted by the avos.

And it begins with Avram, and Avram institutes Shacharis, and the source of that idea is in this Pasuk.

He got up to the place where he stood before Hashem, Amida, says the Gemara.

Amida is an expression of prayer, brings the Pasuk in to hear him, Vayamad pinches vayifanah.

You could say, so it started off with the evening.

Then it spoke about the Zmanim of the morning Shacharit, of Shema.

But once it was talking about the morning, it wanted to explain the morning.

Meaning, I'm already talking about Kriyat Shema Shal Shacharit, Shal Shachar.

So I'll discuss the Brachot of Kriyat Shema Shal Shachar.

And then, I go back to discuss of the evening.

I'm just explaining, this is the idea.

When we daven, the Rav Nassim is about to tell us the first level, but each of the four parts of Shacharis in the morning is supposed to purify one of these levels or elevate ourselves through one of these levels, finding the goodness in that level as we're going to describe.

So this is just all from the footnote before we read part of this inside.

Kabbalah teaches that when we begin in Shacharis, we're standing in the world of Asiyah, which is the lower level.

And when we recite Korbanos and the Kedores passages, we're considered standing there.

That's Korbanos and Kedores, the beginning of Shacharis.

We're in the Olam HaAsiyah.

When we recite Psuket HaZimra, that's considered the second part of Shacharis, we enter Olam HaYetzira.

But before we come to a conclusion on this, there is, the Rebbe, here's a letter of the Rebbe, about the fact that in Chabad, it's common for Bokhrim to decline wearing a talus, even as they are at the Yomit.

And even for Shacharis, and that was also, my impression is that in Rastov and at Votsk, that also wasn't done.

Then he says, since people are not fussy about Bochrim going to the Yom without a talis, why should he put on a talis? Then he goes into a shayla with a brocha.

What is the shayla? So the shayla is if he borrows from a yachid.

Out of respect for the Mitzvah of Havdolah, you shouldn't do Moloch before Havdolah.

Very good.

So now, a person who doesn't daven, does he have Easter of eating before davening? He's not going to daven, Shacharis.

He's not allowed to eat.
