Description

Page 129. Advice for concentration in davening (praying) - stop every three words. Better to go to a mourner's house than to a chassana (wedding). If we stand still we can think. We can come closer to Hashem by being "like" Hashem. The tachlis (purpose) is to come closer to Hashem by repairing our middos (character qualities). Yiras (Awe of) Hashem is the same as tikkun hamiddos (fixing our character traits).
