CLD #492



For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L.
There is always a constant spiritual war between the positive spirtual energy that is created from our Mitzvot (good deeds) and the negative spiritual power that is created from our Averot (bad deeds).
We need to always overcome the urge to fail and fall spiritually by boosting the urge to do Mitzvot and overcome the negative urges. As it says in Masechet Berachot 5a, “LeOlam Yargiz Adam Yetzer HaTov Al Yetzer HaRa,” Forever man should overcome his Yetzer Hara (evil inclination) using his Yetzer HaTov.
Without even knowing it we have a crazy urge of doing good and getting closer to Hashem. We all have a spark of fire that just wants to spread and do good and good and more good!
This line from the Gemara proves it. Also this line from the Holy Gemara proves we have a spiritual force pushing us to do negative things that just bring more problems to the world. The spiritual energy that seems bad is not only the crazy urge man has for being with a woman, rather it can be anything from eating too much to getting angry when one is not supposed to (yes, there is a time when one needs to get angry).
When someone glues him/herself to Hashem, when they really state to Hashem that they want to be Yereh Shamayim (have Fear of Heaven), which leads to a life of true happiness, they automatically affect and influence all the people around them to do good and strive to achieve their goals with a greater passion.
We just need to pray and find the right leaders and friends to direct us in the correct route to reach those goals.

B’H we will all realize the indescribable power we have just from saying a few words to Hashem in prayer and ask for the signs and clues to reach what we need to accomplish in this crazy world of ours.
