Rabbi, Founder and First Rebbe of Chabad, a branch of Hasidic Judaism. He wrote many works, and is best known for Shulchan Aruch HaRav, Tanya, and his Siddur Torah Or compiled according to the Nusach Ari.
He gave many derashos on Parshas HaShavua, Chasidus and Shir Hashirim. Over the generations his derashos have been dissected and organized by subject matter.
This process has given a much better holistic understanding of The Baal HaTanyaโs (R Schneur Zalman) view on various inyanim.
In our case, Chasidus Mvueres are his brilliant teachings on davening.
Each derasha builds on and complements those that have come before it until we arrive at the realization that our Avoda of Tefilla starts long before we even open a siddur and accompanies us when we leave shul.
