==Kissing Tefilin and Tzitzit during Shema==
==Kissing Tefilin and Tzitzit during Shema==
# There is a practice to gather all four Tzitziyot when one gets to the words “MeArbah Kanfot HaAretz” and hold them in your left hand. When one gets to third paragraph of Shema one transfers the strings into one’s right hand, while holding onto the knots with one’s left hand until “VeNemanim VeNechmadim Laad” when one kisses the tzitzit and lets go of the tzitziyot. The same applies to a lefty. Some have the practice to only hold the two front tzitiyot.  <Ref> Halacha Brurah 24:6, 60:5 </ref>
# When one says “UKeshartem LeOt Al Yadecha” one should kiss the Tefilin Shel Yad. When one says “Vehayu LeTotafot Ben Eiynecha” one should kiss the Tefilin Shel Rosh. <Ref> S”A 61:25 </ref>
