A Good Reward
Why do we see that there are many people who work so diligently for corporeality, even in life-threatening places, but in spirituality, each and every one examines one’s soul very carefully? Moreover, one can exert in corporeality even when one is not given a great reward for one’s work. But in spirituality, one cannot agree to work unless once knows for certain that he will receive a good reward for his work.
Rav Yehuda Ashlag (Baal Hasulam)
