Hishtapchus Hanefesh


Li-rifuas Noam ben Leah bi-toch שח"י

There is a concept in the sefarim called "השתפכות הנפש" – the spilling of the soul. This means that a person's soul is overflowing with passion and it is revealed in his external actions. Others are quite numb inside and therefore nothing is shown on the outside. Of course, there are those who are very passionate but conceal it from others. When experiencing  השתפכות הנפש  this concealment becomes exposed.
