[עַל־פִּי תּוֹרָה קנ"ט - דַּע שֶׁיֵּשׁ אֶמְצָעִי וְהִיא הַשְּׁכִינָה]
נִדְבוֹת פִּי רְצֵה נָא יְהֹוָה וּמִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ לַמְּדֵנִי. דֶּרֶךְ פִּקוּדֶיךָ הֲבִינֵנִי וְאָשִׂיחָה בְּנִפְלְאוֹתֶיךָ. דֶּרֶךְ שֶׁקֶר הָסֵר מִמֶּנִּי וְתוֹרָתְךָ חָנֵּנִי.

**The Fiftieth Gate. Breslov Research Institute, Jerusalem, c1992-c2016:**
*Learning Torah Brings Material and Spiritual Abundance / Raising the Torah Learning of Spiritually Weak People*
A person must purify his thoughts and heart until he learns Torah for the sake of raising the Shekhinah (Divine Presence) from the dust.
Then his learning rises to the Shekhinah, which receives it with great love. With that, he draws spiritual and material abundance to himself. That abundance rises to give life to all of the upper worlds and all of the angels, and it descends to help other Jews as well.
There are vapors that come from the Torah learning of Jews who are small in stature and whose learning cannot rise to the Shekhinah. A person must receive these vapors for the good, so that they will turn into his dew of Torah, his dew of lights, his elixir of life. Then he will wake up every day with new inspiration, with an enthusiastic yearning to learn the Torah and serve God.
As a result of receiving these vapors, he rises in Godly holiness until he creates new Torah insights.
He must take care that the dew formed of those teachings that are scattered in the air will not harm him, that it will not come to him in the form of an arousal to pursue business and the thirty-nine types of labor. To that end, he must eschew the desire for money and the pursuits and distractions of this world.
Instead, he must trust that God alone will support him.
**Learning Torah without Ulterior Motives**
“HaShem, accept the offerings of my mouth, and teach me Your judgments.” “Lead me to understand Your precepts, and I will speak of Your wonders.” “Remove the way of falsehood from me, and favor me with Your Torah.”
