The Shattered Vessel

Before you can heal from sin, you must first be broken.

Then, it requires self-restraint/isolation in order to subdue the animal soul.

איסקפיא - Iskafya: suppression, self-restraint, subduing

Broken
First comes the shattering
Then the isolation
You must be hidden
from the world
To escape the ayin hara

To subdue the nefesh habehamis [the animal soul]
To retreat, heal and learn
The light comes down and illuminates
This can take years and years

To re-emerge, with the glory of the nefesh haElokis [the G-dly soul]

A transformation

The emergence from the cocoon

You are repaired

You are re-born

Whole again
