that many say before and after counting the Omer
Here again, some people say all of the following after each night's count.
Some say only the HARACHAMAN statement (which expresses the role of
counting the Omer in our time as a commemorative of the Beit
HaMikdash). Some say Ps. 67 and/or ANA B'CHO'ACH. The last passage is
based on Kabalistic ideas that each day of the Omer, each day of each
week of the Omer, addresses one combination of qualities and realms.
The original Exodus-to-Sinai counting was a period of spiritual growth,
improvement, and development for Bnei Yisrael. That is what it should be
for us each year.

S'firat HaOmer
Seymour J. Abrams • Orthodox Union
Jerusalem World Center
22 Keren HaYesod, Jerusalem
Some say this full introductory portion below before counting the Omer.
Some begin at HINENI MUCHAN. Some do not say it at all. It should serve as
a focus and KAVANA-creator. Use it well. Remember that there are some
authorities who consider SFIRAT HA'OMER to be Torah law even in our time,
and others who hold that it is Rabbinic without a Beit HaMikdash. Our
KAVANA should be conditional on this issue, to cover both sides of this
dispute. Count the OMER while standing. Know the count before you say the
BRACHA. If you are not counting with a bracha (because you missed a
complete day's counting), try to hear someone else's bracha, answer AMEN
and then count on your own. Even if you have no available bracha to listen
to, it is still a mitzva to count on your own (even without a bracha).
