Welcome to our daily reflection on the Tanya. Today, we explore the profound teaching on the struggle between our higher and lower selves. It is often said that life is a battleground for the soul. We wake each morning, faced with choices that reflect our true nature. The Tanya reminds us that our divine essence is constantly at war with the distractions and desires of the material world.
In our everyday lives, we encounter moments of doubt, temptation, and uncertainty. Yet, each challenge is an opportunity for growth and spiritual elevation. Embracing this struggle can lead us to a deeper connection with god. Remember, every small act of kindness and every effort to choose the good strengthens our inner light.
When we feel overwhelmed, let us pause and recognize that this tension is part of our divine purpose. It’s not just about overcoming, but transforming our desires into a force for good. As we navigate our daily lives, let us do so with intention, knowing that each step we take is a step closer to our true selves.
