[עַל־פִּי תּוֹרָה קכ"ט - אֶרֶץ אֹכֶלֶת יוֹשְׁבֶיהָ]
יְהִי רָצוֹן מִלְּפָנֶיךָ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ, אֵל אֱמוּנָה, שֶׁתְּזַכֵּנוּ בְּרַחֲמֶיךָ הָרַבִּים וּבַחֲסָדֶיךָ הָעֲצוּמִים, לֶאֱמוּנָה שְׁלֵמָה בֶּאֱמֶת וּבְלֵב שָׁלֵם, שֶׁאֶזְכֶּה לְהַאֲמִין בְּךָ וּבְצַדִּיקֶיךָ הָאֲמִתִּיִּים בֶּאֱמוּנָה שְׁלֵמָה בֶּאֱמֶת.

**The Fiftieth Gate. Breslov Research Institute, Jerusalem, c1992-c2016:**
*Becoming Absorbed into Faith / Faith in the Tzaddik*
A person must attain a holy consciousness that will consume him until his body has the same awareness as his holy soul.
Just as a person absorbs food into his body, so too, a believer’s faith assimilates him into itself. Similarly, the holiness of the Land of Israel assimilates a person who lives in it until he partakes of its nature, and a Tzaddik assimilates a person who clings to him and believes in him until that person attains the Tzaddik’s nature.
Thus, it is good for a person to be a Tzaddik’s follower, even if he receives no tangible benefit thereby, because simply having faith in the Tzaddik helps him serve God.
All of this depends on this person’s will. If he has a strong desire to come close to God and serve Him, then even though it is hard for him to break the desires of his body, by coming close to and believing in a Tzaddik, he is transformed into the nature of the Tzaddik.
But if he does not want to serve HaShem, then coming close to a Tzaddik will not help him. Not only will he not be digested but, to the contrary, he will be vomited out.
**Holy Faith**
HaShem, my God and God of my fathers, help me attain faith with all my heart. Help me believe fully in You and in your true Tzaddikim.
