Machshava:

Beit HaMikdash, Nefesh Hachaim, Spirituality

Collections: R' Bergman Entering the Inner Sanctum

Description

The gemara draws a parallel between the neshama and Hashem. Jewish thinkers take the parallel a step further and describe the person as a mikdash which houses the neshama as the Beit Hamikdash housed the Shechinah. We explore this idea and how it can manifest practically through the Nefesh HaChyaim
