The Creative Soul

by Rav Avraham Yitzchak Kook

The creative soul
Is immersed in the wellspring of the light of the Teaching.
We may not stop its flow,
Filled with joy and holy happiness,
Not for any bitter complaint or obstacle in the world.
The entire world isn’t worth
A single instant of superior creativity
That comes from the holy wellspring.
This stream of elevated life that pours in a single soul
Raises up the entire world.
     Shemonah Kevatzim 4:29
