Yehiel Mikhal of Zlotchov

This was an insightful explanation of creation and existence. From creation delighting God, to souls taking a material shape, from which they are purified in order to approach God and hold fast to Him in their thoughts and love. Considering themselves nothing without God’s power….as without a source, yet infinite if connected to God, as a branch connected to a root.

“The root is the Infinite, therefore the branch is also infinite. It has lost its own existence, like a drop that has fallen into the great sea and is one with the waters of the sea and cannot be recognized as a separate thing.” Truly living connected to the Source, life emanates the Source and is one with it, indistinguishable from it. That’s really intriguing.
