The
difference between, and the choice between the internal and the
external level is based on the difference between the inner and
external levels of tynug/pleasure.
This
is hard for us to perceive, since we base our conscious actions on
reasons. Even getting out of bed in the morning which you may think
is a perfectly wholesome human action has an admixture of specific
reasons/enticements such as, 'okay, time to go to class' or 'I need
to get to work'...
Whereas
in reality there is an inner motivation of: 'I want to participate in
daylight' that is deeper than any specific activity.
I
don't need a reason to live. I don't need a reason to participate in
life. Even though life is active it is beyond reason. It is not
active in contrast to inaction. Life is active.
So
there is a choosing of the inner level. Not due to some kind of
benefit, but because it is Him.
The
souls of Israel and the Torah are the inner reality of the world.
A
home consists of a physical structure. The inner reality of the home
is the human element.
It
is important to cleave to the inner reality of things. The external
view is so prevalent. Yet we go with the inner reality that is not
manifest. We live with the inner reality that God made.
Both
the inner and external levels are necessary.
At
every moment a person is 'much bigger than what meets the eye'.
