Don't Justify

It is not to be forgotten that what we call rational grounds for our beliefs are often extremely irrational attempts to justify our instincts.


Thomas Huxley


Sweetest friends - this is what the great Masters of Mussar call - negiyos. We all have them and our daily avoda is to reach truth and act because it is right and not because our instincts push us in that direction.


BIG job!
