Balance Between Body and Soul-Bilvavi Miskan Evneh


Balance Between Body and Soul-Bilvavi Miskan Evneh.
Da Et Atzmacha page 260

..the Torah teaches us that we must correct our character in order to achieve balance between the body and the soul. It is not only the body that needs internal balance. The soul does not want anger, and the body does. The soul want to give, and the body wants to be self-centered. These problems require us to make peace between the two components.

How do we acheive this peace? Do we go to an exteme to correct a middah or do we give in? There is more then one way of growing.
