Our sages said, “He who comes to purify is aided.” The Zohar asks, “How is he aided?” and it replies, “with a holy soul (Rabash. Article No. 41, 1990. “What Are the Light Mitzvot that a Person Tramples with His Heels, in the Work?”).

As a result of all his efforts in spiritual work, a person gets help from not turning off the path and adhering to the rule “just do not leave.” He cannot leave the group, the ten, and continue to move forward.

Question: What does it mean he is helped with a holy soul? What happens to him at the same time?

Answer: He opens his eyes a little and rises a little higher up the steps of the ladder of spiritual elevation.

Question: But is it revealed to him as a gift for his work or from the fact that he made an effort and found, i.e., earned?

Answer: It does not matter, either this or that. We cannot determine exactly why we received this or that attitude from above.

Question: Is the help of the holy soul carried out as a once-in-a-lifetime exit from Egypt? Or can it happen systematically?

Answer: No, it happens at specific points along the way.
