External
sechel/mind has deprived us of inner sechel! The external level
demands to see extreme consequences before it will deem something
real!
But
there is ohr hasechel – light of mind...
Seeing
in light, is completely different from touching... light tells you
without having to be in contact with the object... it tells you of
reality. Light of sechel, talks about something very real, and it
has its parameters and limits of where it is, and is not pertinent.
This
is in contrast to physical hashpah which has no limit...
The
spiritual or sechel/mind activity is based in the faculty of mind
(koach hamaskil). It makes sense to a human being. It makes no
sense to a cat! If it is clear and proven why does it not make sense
to an animal? Because this mind value is relevant only to a human
being.
If
the faculty of mind (koach ha maskil) is not engaged one will perhaps
see the structure, but miss the point. The koach ha maskil has no
limit.
