Authentic Jewish Spirituality Pt. 3 | Prishut
from The Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen Podcast · host Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen
In this shiur, Rav Dov Ber Cohen maps out the inner architecture of a human being — neshama, ruach, and body — and asks the essential question: who is actually in charge? He teaches that the body is not the self but the vehicle, and that the voice of the neshama grows quieter the more we feed the animalistic drive of the yetzer hara through craving, honor-seeking, and distraction. Rabbi Dov Ber introduces prishut — self-control — as the foundational practice of spiritual identity. Through small, daily acts of restraint in food, speech, technology, and physical comfort, we train the inner muscle that matters most: the ability to choose the soul's voice over the body's noise. Every moment of prishut is a declaration that you are not your cravings, not your ego, and not your reflection in the mirror. This is avodah that begins in the ordinary and reaches toward true kedusha. Living in Tune with Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen Mindfulness, Torah wisdom, and inner work for a calmer, more aligned life.
