QUESTION:
Each part of davening corresponds to one of the four realms (Asiyah, Yetzirah, Beriah and Atzilus). What does that mean? Does that mean we are found on any of those realms during certain parts of davening? How do we connect ourselves with the four worlds as we daven?
ANSWER:
Asiyah is action, Yetzirah is middos, Beriah is mochin (mind) and Atzilus is d’veykus. If one is worthy, he connects to every level and actually ascends to the higher worlds, in his davening. All of these ascensions to higher worlds are in the depths of the soul – in one’s middos (emotions) and thoughts.
