Description:"A person should enter the shul through the measure of two doors and then pray" (Berachos 8a) ...The Rishonim state that Chaza;'s ruling of "entering the shul through the measure of two doors and then pray" includes avoiding: sitting near the door, looking out of the shul, and rushing into tfillah, all of which would detract from the intended elevated experience of prayer. Therefore, halacha l'maaseh it is proper to heed to all three of the Gemara's elucidations (Shulchan Aruch 90, 20)...However, our Rabbis' words can also be interpreted in a manner that delves into the inner essence of prayer. Entering the world of prayer requires passing through two doors. First, one must cross the threshold, stepping out of the routine daily experience. This is the first doorway referred to by the Gemara. Having crossed over the initial threshold, another doorway must be entered. Even after transcending the mundane, a person's work is not complete. One must cross through a second door and come close to Hashem, in order to ascend into the world of prayer (Maharal Nesivos Olam - Nesiv Ha'avoidah 5).In today's fast-paced world, fewer and fewer people seem able to concentrate properly during prayer. Choosing a shul that prioritizes this daily experience by promoting slow, deliberate prayer, and positioning oneself in shul in order to enable utmost concentration are the keys that open these two doorways - and the world of heartfelt prayer.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
