Part 7/10:
Rabbi Jacobson advocates for a spiritual connection to those who have left this world. The more one nurtures the soul through spiritual practices and connecting with higher truths, the closer one feels to their loved ones. This connection diminishes the finality of death and brings reassurance that the soul’s journey is ongoing.
He shares an analogy involving a refrigerator and electricity: just as electricity existed long before the invention of refrigerators, and continues to exist after, the soul exists outside of the physical realm and persists beyond physical demise.
