…the discontent (with oneself) spiritual individual!
By zevi770 · June 19, 2013
One of the things I am sure, many others find very difficult, is the sheer quantity of teachings – it’s easy, say – seriously! no offence! just bringing out a point – to be a Christian – “believe this; your saved!” – But to be a religious Jew, there are over 4000 laws pertaining, just to a scroll, that hangs on your door (the Mezuzah) Shabbos must be hundreds of thousands – it’s all a bit overwhelming! and that’s the easy stuff; once you get to the spiritual self-growth, it is literally endless! – couldn’t we just get into a little boat and sail off into some kind of twilight experience?! – But that’s the point; that if you could, you would be complacent, which brings degeneration! – But a deeper quest must manifest, the dual reality, of, on one hand, knowing that you will always be imperfect, and yet striving for perfection, and it is precisely the two combined, that create the Jew: the discontent (with oneself) spiritual individual!
