Judaism 101: The Two Parts to Man's Soul

from The Shmuz · host JewishPodcasts.fm

Why do you sometimes feel pulled in two different directions — wanting to do what’s right, yet struggling with temptation, anger, or selfishness? In this thought-provoking class, Rabbi Shafier explores the Jewish understanding of the human soul and explains how every person contains both a higher spiritual side and a powerful instinct-driven side. Through deep Torah insight and practical wisdom, this lecture offers a fascinating look at human nature and how you can grow into the person you were meant to become.
