Tanya: An illustration (p. 293)...nothing besides it. (p. 295). |
From my father's talks: "The avoda of serving G‑d according to Chassidus comprises all kinds of levels... The level of "corpse" does not need much elaboration; but, thank G‑d, there is also "revival of the dead" in spiritual avoda. A corpse is cold; there is nothing as frigid as natural intellect, human intellect. When one's natural intelligence comprehends a G‑dly concept, and the emotions latent in intellect are enthused and moved by the pleasure-within-intellect - that is true revival of the dead.
