What Is The Soul (continued from last three weeks)
Dr. Guterson: you talk a lot about the soul. Maybe you can help me understand what the soul is?
A: G-d blew His essence into Man. His essence is our essence. And so, when we are truly in touch with our soul, we operate on an entirely different level.
In a talk I studied from Rabbi YY Jacobson, he explains that there are six essential features of the soul. The first two features are Confidence and Honesty.
This week, the third feature: Innocence
Innocence is based on the profound awareness that our soul is purely perfect. In other words, flawless. There is nothing we can do that can damage our soul. Nothing.
Therefore, the only thing - the only thing - that is wrong with me, with the real me, is that I think there is something wrong with me.
Got that??
