Welcome, dear friends, to our exploration of the Tanya. Today, let’s delve into a passage that resonates deeply with our everyday struggles: the battle within. The Alter Rebbe teaches that within each of us reside two inclinations: the good, yearning for spirituality, and the evil, pulling us towards material desires. Just like Jacob wrestled with the angel, we grapple with these internal forces constantly. But there’s good news! By consciously choosing acts of goodness, even small ones, we tip the scales. Each act of kindness, each prayer, each moment of mindfulness, empowers the good within us, leading us closer to god and our true purpose. This podcast was produced and sponsored by Daniel Aharonoff.
