Spiritual Revitalization
Tech Tribe Dispatch 204
💡 Think:
What is true avoda - inner service?
Rabbi Sholom Dovber of Lubavitch once taught
"The avoda of serving G‑d according to Chassidus comprises all kinds of levels... The level of "corpse" does not need much elaboration; but, thank G‑d, there is also "revival of the dead" in spiritual avoda. A corpse is cold; there is nothing as frigid as natural intellect, human intellect. When one's natural intelligence comprehends a G‑dly concept, and the emotions latent in intellect are enthused and moved by the pleasure-within-intellect - that is true revival of the dead.1
