The Master of the Universe reveals His essence.

In Gan Eden (Heaven) we only experience
The revelation of Godliness,
The ray of the shechina.
Not the real essence of God.

The Essence Of Spiritual Life

God Essence

How do we experience the essence of God?
By descending to this world to do the will of God,
Torah and mitzvahs,
Through our thought, speech and action.
This is our life essence.

=============================================

Essence Of Purity

Before we descend to this world,
Our souls are at the highest level in the thought of God.
When our souls descend to do Torah and mitzvahs,
We reach an even higher level.
What is the highest level of good in the Infinity of God?

=============================================

Life Essence of Love

When husband and wife always get along with each other,
this is not meserus nefesh (giving over your soul or self-sacrifice).
Meserus nefesh is when husband and wife disagree,
and each gives up for the other to be happy.
