„Inner innocence is far above morality.”

„Inner innocence is far above morality.”From Shemonah Kevatzim, VII, 178

The inner uprightness and conscience that exist within a person are many times greater than any learning a person may acquire in the days of his life. At times morality can guard our innocence, and we must be very careful not to lose the innocence and conscience that give all of us direction in the world!

A pleasant day to all!

For the recovery of Amit bat Vered, Roi ben Nili.
