Description

The ultimate good and purpose in this world is being close to G-d. We have to make our decisions based on the knowledge of this purpose. There are many different paths to closeness to G-d as long as everything one does is for the purpose of closeness to G-d. One doesn’t have to completely separate from the world to be close to G-d. Our entire life depends on this knowledge of our purpose and therefore we must never be distracted from it. Only someone who is connected to G-d is really considered living.
