A stick has no inner relationship to its inner qualities.  It does not know about its own qualities.  It makes no difference to the stick - it has no inner life.

Living beings - animals and men are different.  

The human being is real - through and through - from the innermost level to the most external.

The soul is in the body.  It wants to be there.  It identifies its significance.  

Man did not come to the world or to this specific place accidentally.  

Pnimi [inner reality] is representative of an essence.  

An animal also eats, but only on the level of action.  Man also eats, but he is permeated by an inner essential reality.

Mind is essentially inner [mochin is pnimi b’etzem].  It identifies inner significance. 

Mind looks at why something is there, and Who is showing it to me.


Without a Rendezvous

Two people that together go
Don’t go without a rendezvous;
For, lack of it, they’d not do so—
That is where they are going to.

They did not meet by accident,
But rather have a goal in mind.
Together they share the intent:
A destination they would find.

Togetherness should not exist
Without a motive at the start.
Without it every end is missed;


For, everyone will walk apart.
