Today, we will delve into the idea of confronting our inner struggles. The Tanya teaches that within each of us reside two inclinations - the good and the bad. It’s like having an angel and a devil whispering in your ears. The good inclination guides us towards kindness, towards fulfilling our potential. The bad inclination, however, constantly tempts us with distractions, with negativity.
The key takeaway is this: We have a choice. We can choose to listen to the whispers of our good inclination, to nurture our inner goodness. The more we choose good, the stronger our good inclination becomes, leading to a life filled with purpose and meaning.
