But because we were given the Torah and Mitzvot to keep during the concealment, we can keep them in utter simplicity, and say, “If my aim is to bestow, why should I mind what taste I feel?” (Rabash, “The Measure of Practicing Mitzvot [Commandments]”).

We must reach a state where it does not matter to us what state we are in. The main thing is to be aware, to be in a certain feeling, that I am connected with the Creator, that I am moving toward Him. I must come to a point where this becomes more important to me than all the feelings in my sense organs

Question: So how does one “simply perform” the commandments in practice?

Answer: Precisely like this, without any cleverness. It must be clear to me in my feelings. “Simply” is not a concept that describes understanding. I am a desire to receive, not an intellect, not a computer. Therefore, I must feel the commandments within my desire.

Question: And if I am not able to?

Answer: Everyone is capable, you simply have not attained it yet.
