### Part 1 — Alone with Hashem in Prayer

- Scene 3 · LM II:103 §1 · paragraph §1.1
  - HE: בִּשְׁעַת הַתְּפִלָּה, כָּל זְמַן שֶׁהָאָדָם שׁוֹמֵעַ עוֹד אָז אֵיזֶה אָדָם, דְּהַיְנוּ שֶׁשּׁוֹמֵעַ וּמַרְגִּישׁ שֶׁעוֹמֵד עוֹד אָדָם אֶחָד בִּשְׁעַת תְּפִלָּתוֹ, הוּא לֹא טוֹב. כִּי צָרִיךְ כָּל אָדָם בִּשְׁעַת תְּפִלָּתוֹ, שֶׁיְּצַיֵּר בְּדַעְתּוֹ, שֶׁאֵין שָׁם אֶלָּא אֲנִי וְהַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ לְבַד.
  - EN (our paraphrase): At prayer, as long as a person still hears someone else, that is, he hears and senses that another person is standing there while he prays, it is not good. For every person at prayer must picture in his mind that there is no one there but me and Hashem alone.
- Scene 5 · LM II:103 §1, on Likutei Moharan I:55 · paragraph §1.2
  - HE: וּבַמַּאֲמָר "אַבָּא שָׁאוּל וְכוּ' פַּעַם אַחַת רַצְתִּי אַחַר צְבִי וְכוּ'", שָׁם מְבֹאָר בִּטּוּל גָּדוֹל יוֹתֵר בִּשְׁעַת הַתְּפִלָּה, שֶׁמְּחֻיָּב הָאָדָם לְבַטֵּל עַצְמוֹ כָּל־כָּךְ בִּשְׁעַת הַתְּפִלָּה, עַד שֶׁלֹּא יַרְגִּישׁ אֲפִלּוּ אֶת עַצְמוֹ כְּלָל בִּשְׁעַת תְּפִלָּתוֹ, רַק אֶת הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ לְבַדּוֹ, כִּי אָז, בִּשְׁעַת הַתְּפִלָּה, הָאָדָם עוֹמֵד בְּהֵיכַל הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכוּ', עַיֵּן שָׁם מַה שֶּׁכָּתוּב שָׁם: מִי הוּא, הֲלֹא יֵשׁוּתוֹ נִתְבַּטֵּל, וְאֵין כָּאן אֶלָּא הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּעַצְמוֹ וְכוּ', עַיֵּן שָׁם:
  - EN (our paraphrase): And in the teaching 'Abba Shaul said, once I ran after a deer', a greater self-nullification at prayer is explained: a person must nullify himself so much at prayer that he does not feel even himself at all, only Hashem alone. For then, at prayer, a person stands in the King's palace. See what is written there: who is he? His very existence is nullified, and there is nothing here but the King Himself. See there.
