Welcome! Today, we turn to a profound teaching from the Tanya that resonates deeply in our daily lives. The text reminds us that the struggle between our higher and lower selves is a universal experience. The divine soul yearns for holiness and connection with god, while the animal soul often seeks comfort and indulgence.
This internal conflict is not a burden, but a pathway to growth. Embrace these moments of challenge as opportunities to elevate your spirit. When faced with temptations or distractions, remember that each decision is a chance to choose the higher path. Every small act of kindness or self-restraint brings us closer to our true essence.
Let’s cultivate awareness of our choices and recognize the divine spark within us. By doing so, we transform our mundane experiences into sacred moments.
May we all find strength in our daily struggles and strive to align our actions with our higher purpose.
