Description

P. 125. A person needs to grow out of immature dimion (imagination) and to control it with the sechel (mind). The sechel resolves its issues without having to use the images of the imagination. The dimion is good at making a shidduch (match) between the senses and what is possible. The sechel strips everything away except for the inner truth. Seeing is not deep, it is quick. In hisbonenus, a thought can be allowed penetrate deeply. The job of the sechel is to tear away the peels of dimion, which is done best through hisbonenus. Dimion can block you from being in this very moment.
