Description

The physical world is an opportunity for a Jew to reveal Hashem's presence. How is it possible to transform the nefesh behamis (animal soul) into kedusha (holiness)? Is our entire purpose in this world merely to avoid sinking into ra (evil). Pre-paid call cards are used by kids to act against parents reflecting their defiance and anger. The Talmud at the end of Shabbos discusses birth with a certain mazal (inborn inclination). Nachman bar Yitzhak was born with the mazal of g'neiva (stealing).
