Book Title Be Within Stay Above
Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson
« Previous Next »

Any Soul

In every person, there lie all souls that ever were and will be.

After all, human consciousness began in a single being, with a single breath of G‑d within that being.

And so, just as every cell of the human being contains the blueprint of every other cell and of the entire person from the synapses of his brain to the swirls of his fingerprints, so every single person contains the entire humankind.

In this way, our Creator has rendered each of us the master of human destiny. In the liberation of any one of us lies the liberation of us all.

The part about fingerprints is not true
What is contained in "every cell of the human being" is the same in identical twins. However, identical twins have different fingerprints. Therefore, the blueprint of "the swirls of his fingerprints" cannot be contained in every cell, because different swirls occur in individuals with the same "blueprint" in their cells.

For Whom the Bell Tolls
Like Quantum theology and quantum physics, every action makes another reaction and what we do has a rippling effect. I think so but some stones thrown in the sea of humanity are softer landing and skip across the top and some are cannonballs.

Any Soul
Being not knowing enough about Judaism may I ask whether you distinguish body, soul, spirit? Is soul and spirit the same in your take? As a Christian I am taught my intellect, emotion, will are part of my soul which is to be saved. And my spirit is born from above. But of course the 2 terms seem very close to each other. Like when HaShem breathes unto us, does He make our soul or our spirit? When we go to heaven or live in the Moshiach era, what do we have? Our body is dirt of the earth...

Liberation of One, Liberation of All
"But let justice well up as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream." (Amos, 5:24) These words come FIRST, from the TANAKH, and they have been the source of inspiration and liberation for many...!!!!!

Amen!
