השתפכות הנפש - Hashtatfchus HaNefesh
כְּשֶׁאֶחָד מִיִּשְׂרָאֵל רוֹצֶה לְדַבֵּר עִם הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ לְפָרֵשׁ שִׂיחָתוֹ לְפָנָיו יִתְבָּרַךְ וּלְבַקֵּשׁ מִמֶּנּוּ שֶׁיְּקָרְבוֹ לַעֲבוֹדָתוֹ יִתְבָּרַךְ, אָז הַשֵּׁם יִתְבָּרַךְ כִּבְיָכוֹל מַשְׁלִיךְ כָּל עִנְיָנָיו וְכָל הַגְּזֵרוֹת שֶׁרוֹצֶה לִגְזר חַס וְשָׁלוֹם, וְכָל הָעֲסָקִים שֶׁלּוֹ שֶׁהוּא יִתְבָּרַךְ עוֹסֵק בָּהֶם כִּבְיָכוֹל וְהוּא מַשְׁלִיךְ הַכּל וּפוֹנֶה עַצְמוֹ רַק לְזֶה הָאִישׁ שֶׁרוֹצֶה לְדַבֵּר עִמּוֹ וּלְפָרֵשׁ שִׂיחָתוֹ לְפָנָיו, לְבַקֵּשׁ מֵאִתּוֹ שֶׁיַּעְזְרֵהוּ לְהִתְקָרֵב אֵלָיו יִתְבָּרַךְ נִמְצָא שֶׁעַל-יְדֵי-זֶה מִמֵּילָא נִצּוֹלִין יִשְׂרָאֵל מִכָּל הַגְּזֵרוֹת קָשׁוֹת רַחֲמָנָא לִצְלָן (שָׁם, סִימָן ע') .
A Jew who turns to G-d, G-d puts all edicts aside giving him undivided attention When a Jew desires to speak with Hashem Yisburach, to express his words before Him blessed He, and to ask from Him that He should draw him close to His service blessed He, then Hashem Yisburach so to speak throws aside all His affairs, and all the edicts that He wishes to decree Heaven forbid, and all His engagements that He blessed He is involved in, so to speak, and He casts everything aside and turns Himself to attend just to this person who desires to speak with Him, and express his words before Him to request from Him that He help him to draw close to Him blessed He. The upshot is, that through this the natural result is that the Jews are saved from all harsh decrees, may the Merciful One save us. (Words of Rabbi Nachman, article 70).
