Searching for the inner point of one’s heart:[1]
It states in scripture, “Licha Amar Libi, Bakshu Panaiy/to you my heart states, search for my innards.” This is an instruction for every individual Jew to search and uncover the inner part of his heart and the depths of his heart, and to call on to G-d from this depth and essential point. This can be accomplished through repentance from the depths of one’s heart, when one truly feels remorse and regret for the great distance that was created between him and the light of G-d as a result of sin. This exposes the inner part of one’s heart and arouses above in heaven a revelation of the inner part of G-d’s kingship. This level of depth cannot be reached simply through learning Torah and fulfilling Mitzvah’s and requires repentance from the depth of the heart to reveal.
