Kavana


“One need not pulverize mountains and shatter boulders, turning the world upside down. Any Avoda, any act, whatever it may be, merely needs true Kavana: a Bracha pronounced with Kavana; a word of Davening as it should be, with a prepared heart and an awareness of “before Whom you stand”; a passage in Chumash said with an awareness that it is the word of G-d; a verse of Tehillim; a beneficent trait of character expressed in befriending another with affection and love. The truth of the matter is, that to achieve this calls for great and intense effort, meaning simply to study a great deal of Torah and to comprehend it – each according to his ability – and then G-d will help him be what truth demands.” ~ Lubavitcher Rebbe
