Do Not Follow Your Heart

john highley • February 3, 2024

Welcome back to our journey of spiritual exploration, friends! It's John Highley here with a fascinating new video that delves deep into the heart of Kabbalistic wisdom. Today, we're uncovering the profound meanings of the three levels of the soul: Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshamah, symbolized by the powerful acronym 'KING' – Kaved (Liver), Lev (Heart), and Mo'ach (Brain).


Key Takeaways:


1. Three Levels of the Soul: Discover the Nefesh (instinctual), Ruach (emotional/moral), and Neshamah (intellectual/spiritual) aspects of the soul.


2. Balancing the KING: Learn how harmonizing these levels leads to a more fulfilled and spiritually aware life.


Daily Determined Disciplines:


1. Self-Reflection: Take time daily to reflect on your thoughts and actions, striving for alignment with your spiritual goals.


2. Meditation: Practice meditation to connect with your inner self and the higher realms of your soul.


3. Study Kabbalah: Dive into the wisdom of Kabbalah to deepen your understanding of Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshamah.


4. Kindness and Compassion: Incorporate acts of kindness and compassion into your daily life, nurturing the Ruach aspect of your soul.


5. Seek Knowledge: Cultivate a thirst for spiritual knowledge and growth, nurturing the Neshamah.


In this enlightening session, we'll explore how these three aspects intertwine to form the essence of our being. From the Nefesh, rooted in our physical and instinctual nature, through the emotional and moral world of Ruach, to the lofty heights of Neshamah, the realm of intellect and spirituality - each level offers unique insights into our spiritual journey.


Nefesh – The Instinctual Soul


The Nefesh represents our most basic instincts and physical desires. It's the aspect of the soul that governs our earthly existence and survival. While it's essential for our physical well-being, it's also the aspect that can lead us astray if left unchecked. Balancing the Nefesh involves controlling our primal desires and directing them toward virtuous actions.


Ruach – The Emotional and Moral Soul


Moving up the spiritual ladder, we encounter the Ruach, which encompasses our emotions, morality, and the capacity for compassion and kindness. It's the bridge between our instinctual Nefesh and our intellectual Neshamah. Nurturing the Ruach involves cultivating empathy, moral integrity, and emotional intelligence.


Neshamah – The Intellectual and Spiritual Soul


At the pinnacle of the soul's journey is the Neshamah, the seat of intellect and spirituality. It connects us to the divine and the higher realms of consciousness. Nurturing the Neshamah involves seeking knowledge, engaging in spiritual practices, and striving for a deeper connection with the divine.


Join me as we delve into the mystical teachings of Kabbalah to understand how balancing Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshamah leads to a harmonious and fulfilled life. This video is a must-watch for anyone seeking deeper spiritual awareness and a more profound understanding of their inner self.


Conclusion


Exploring the depths of our soul and understanding the intricacies of Nefesh, Ruach, and Neshamah is a transformative journey. By daily determined disciplines like self-reflection, meditation, Kabbalah study, kindness, and seeking knowledge, we can harmonize these aspects of our soul and unlock a more fulfilled and spiritually aware life. Remember, your soul is the KING within you, waiting to guide you on your spiritual path.
