Chasidut su Salmi 109:7

I heard from my teacher, the Baal Shem Tov, speaking about the morning prayers: that it should be similar to the description in the first chapter of the Tur , that "I should awaken the dawn, rather than the dawn wakening me." You should work hard and strain yourself progressively until reaching the prayer Baruch She'amar, which is analogous to the World of Action, the lower world and the abode of kelippot. Afterwards, you should find more attunement as you progress from Baruch She'amar to Yishtabach, which is analogous to the World of Formation, filled with less kelippot than before. From Yishtabach up to the Amida, have even stronger attunement -- until coming to the Amida itself, which is true and intense embrace and conjoining -- at this point, cast off the garments of corporeality. (See Orach Chayim 98:1) In this way, you begin with Mayim Nukvin, the feminine waters that arouse the Mayim Duchrin and give birth to a male child. This does not happen, however, when one comes to arousal alone (God forbid!), which is a sign of trouble, as hinted at in the verse (Psalms 109:7): "His prayer becomes a sin." The way to rectify this is to pray as described above, and tremble greatly, and pray from the depths of the heart, and so on.

I heard from my teacher an explanation of the verse (Psalms 109:7-11) "Let his prayer be considered a sin... may his children be orphaned and his wife widowed... let the creditor take all he has." He explained this in light of the Talmudic statement (Kiddushin 40b) "Great is study, since it leads to action." It can be countered that this implies that action is greater than study etc., but he explained that study has both aspects within it, in the way that the rabbis said (Menachot 110a), "All who study the laws of the olah sacrifice, it is as if they offered an actual olah." If so, both study and action are included in study, which is not the case with action on its own. Now, since the soul (nefesh) is a garment for the spirit (ruach), and ruach is a garment for the neshamah-soul, if so, nefesh is considered the 'wife' of ruach, which in turn is the 'wife' of neshamah. Similarly, the sages taught (Megillah 6b) that the wicked devours one who is more righteous than he, and so too, King David of blessed memory said of Do'eg and Ahitofel who at least taught him some Torah, which is considered feminine waters with regards to prayer. The Maharsha wrote that all Torah is preparation for the awe that we call prayer, and in prayer you receive masculine waters. When you study for its own sake, the feminine waters arrive just like the masculine waters. This is not so when you study for an ulterior motive, and you receive a similar kind of [impure] inspiration, and then is your prayer considered a sin, since your prayer is confused by foreign thoughts. So too, your soul, your nefesh is a widow, since it is no longer connected like a 'wife' to the spirit, ruach, giving feminine waters. And your children, which are your good actions, are orphaned, since Torah study is considered action, as we explained, ans since it is not done for its own sake, these actions are scattered about and do not rise upwards, and are therefore orphans. "The creditor will take all he has," because the evil inclination lends you some mitzvah that you can do in order to show off and glorify yourself, or you will teach some Torah which is also called 'an act of glory', leading to masculine waters flowing down. Much harm and sorrow is in store, for the evil inclination then comes to take back what he lent, and then "takes all he has" - may the Merciful One protect us! Wonderful are the words of the wise.
