Description
p. 15. R' Moshe Feinstein, zt"l - a being constantly filled with Torah. Getting the curriculum of Torah, but missing out on kedushas (holiness) and pnimius (inner essence) of Torah. Mussar (ethics) cannot be the main focus of my Torah learning. The Vilna Gaon perceived Mussar as the energy that purified his holy heart. Recharging, not relaxing with Mussar. "Hashem, please open my HEART to Your Torah." The avodah (task) of ensuring that the heart does not forget. When the heart doesn't care to remember. Reviewing the Messilas Yesharim over and over again. Reading is with seichel (intellect) and the intent to hear and see something new; this is different from "learning" and internalizing Torah. A person memorizes vast amounts of Mishnayos or pages of the Gemarah with being internally affected. The different level of the 101st review.
