The thing about life is that we are made up not of 1 but of 3 souls that we have within us. And it’s interesting because every single philosophical, religious, psychological idea says effectively this, which is there is a conflict between the desires of the body, which like even a reptile, has certain things that will make it feel good and certain things that will cause it pain – which obviously creates then an attraction and a recoiling. But unlike an animal we also have an independent mind and soul, where we think. So we can realize things that are worth doing and things that are not worth doing. And we can and do have a sense of right and wrong and of course, a love for G-d and people. And so therefore the simple truth is this. That these different parts in us, much like 3 different people in the back of a car, trying to tell the driver where to go, are obviously in conflict. And the way to resolve the conflict is to not identify with your body, which is basically as our Sages say, something that came from a smelly drop, returned to a place which is eaten by worms – and to identify with your conscience, Your beliefs , Which Is Literally G-d Within A Body
