One minute הלכה halacha שיעור shiur number 8: the כוונה kavana of ברכות brachot in general. The משנה ברורה Mishnah Berurah says in addition to needing to have actual כוונה kavana, know what the words are actually you're actually trying to say, the משנה ברורה Mishnah Berurah says that there's certain כוונות kavanot you need to have when you say the שם shem י-ה-ו-ה Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei. ברוך אתה ה' Baruch atah Hashem, right? Now, it's completely אסור assur, and it says in גמרא סנהדרין Gemara Sanhedrin that one has no חלק לעולם הבא chelek l'olam haba if he tried to pronounce the word י-ה-ו-ה Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei, the letters as they're spelled. That's completely אסור assur. You should never try to pronounce it. You can't do that. We know how it's pronounced. The way it's pronounced is אדני Adonai. So now the משנה ברורה Mishnah Berurah brings two כוונות kavanot that one is supposed to have when you say it in any ברכה bracha: ברוך אתה אדני Baruch atah Adonai. What are you supposed to say? Number one is the כוונה kavana of the way that it's pronounced, the pronunciation of י-ה-ו-ה Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei, which is what we just said. So אדני Adonai is א-ד-נ-י Aleph-Dalet-Nun-Yud, which means אדון הכל Adon Hakol. You should, when you say ברוך אתה אדני Baruch atah Adonai, you should imagine ה' Hashem, you are אדון הכל Adon Hakol, you're the Master of the universe. Now, the other כוונה kavana you're supposed to have is the way that it's actually written, which is י-ה-ו-ה Yud-Kei-Vav-Kei means he was, he is, he will be. Now, the גר\"א Gra says the הלכה halacha you only need to focus on the first כוונה kavana of the way it's pronounced, of the way it's read, which is ה' Hashem, you're אדון הכל Adon Hakol, except in קריאת שמע Krias Shema, we'll discuss it later בעזרת ה' bezras Hashem, יישר כח shkoyach.
