How have I, a person who davens the
whole day? The Sifri says, [music]
that's the pshat. If a person would
daven the whole day, he would do plenty
of learning because [music] that's when
the yetzer hara hits him the most to
learn Torah. Let's make davening all day
and then you'll learn, you'll learn for
over two-thirds of the time. So, there

certain egotism, intellectual
satisfaction.
Davening is total submission
to the Ribono shel Olam.
We don't like to submit. We don't like
to subordinate [music] ourselves. So,

avoid when it comes to davening, we'll
do learning over davening.
