There are three realities

By zevi770 · February 14, 2012

The first is the natural order of the universe

The second is the spiritual order of right and wrong

Then there is God Himself

Now ironically God himself works more like a person than the spiritual mechanism of right and wrong

In fact Judaism, the Torah is only considered the middle of the road, as the Torah sometimes speaks on the regulation of man who has a Yetzer Hara, little devil within, hence there are laws like the “captive women etc.” that God prefers we would rise above them, so things stated in the Torah are not the ultimate, merely the road for the person fighting his Yetzer Hara and wanting to be decent.

Integrating the wisdom of Chassidus, Kabbalah, brings one in touch with the essence of a new system which is as easy as it is freeing, which is as good as it is hard.

What do I mean by this?

Nothing is truly difficult, rather it is the war with our Yetzer Hara that compels us to find doing acts of selflessness to be well selfless and going against our natural grain.

But if one were to fully integrate which is again easy but hard, the worldview of Chassidus, namely that all is really God, and the love one must have for a fellow is the same as the love one should have for oneself, than suddenly everything will turn.

You will enjoy doing good! You will love your Judaism! Hence the hard becomes easy, though it is a true battle to overcome the Yetzer Hara from preventing you to achieve true happiness.
