1016 EG
6b Regardingthe pureness of the our souls, there is a basic teaching that the neshama, an aspect of the soul that is always connected with Source of Life, remains pure from birth until death as it cannot be corrupted. This comes a Good News to some of us who have been taught that we can ruin the soul and in so doing will be punished. The meditation practice to recognize the souls purity affects how we relate to ourselves and others.
