Description: הַדֶּרֶךְ הָאֲמִתִּי הוּא שֶׁצְּרִיכִים לָדַעַת מַהוּת עַצְמוֹThe true path demands that one recognize his essential nature, בְּהַכָּרָה אֲמִתִּית בְּחֶסְרוֹנוֹת עַצְמוֹ וּבְמַעֲלוֹת עַצְמוֹwith a genuine acknowledgment of one’s shortcomings and virtues.וְכַאֲשֶׁר יוֹדְעִים אֶת הַחֶסְרוֹנוֹת — לְתַקְּנָם בַּעֲבוֹדָה בְּפוֹעַלAnd when one is aware of his shortcomings, he should correct them with actual work, וְלֹא לָצֵאת יְדֵי חוֹבָתוֹ בַּאֲנָחוֹת בִּלְבַדand not discharge his obligation by merely sighing.Text and Translation courtesy of Sichos in English
