Pandemic, Service of God




Rabbi Pinto Teachings

Question 27
Date 03.24.2020
Topic: Pandemic, Service of God

Dear Rabbi,
What does Hashem expect of us during this period of pandemic?

Answer 27:

Hashem seeks the self-improvement of each and every individual- personal improvement, that is.

The area of improvement differs from one person to the next. To have a general sense of how a person should be improving themselves, in what area of their character should they be focusing their change, one should look at what essence they connect with.

According to the Kabbalah, a person's soul/spirit is associated with one of four symbolic elements: air, fire, water, soil. Each one of these elements has a defining character. The element of air is associated with speech, fire with anger, water with physical pleasure and earth with feelings of self-deprecation and depression. To whichever symbolic element a person most connects, they should focus their energy to rectify themselves in that area.
