@rabbi.noah18: The ideal time for morning prayer is at sunrise. וָתִיקִין. Vatikin. The devoted ones time their Shemoneh Esrei to begin exactly when the sun comes up. Your most important prayer of the day rising with the sun. It is a greeting. You greet Hashem's light the way you would greet a dear friend. You watch the sun rise and watch your soul rise with it. Renewal every single morning. And honestly, waking up early just gets the day going. No procrastinating. The light sets the tone before anything else does. #Judaism #Torah #JewishMeditation #Prayer #Meditation
