FOOLISH FOLKS

[3a top] Reish Lakish: A man only sins if a spirit of foolishness enters into him [one has to be crazy to sin].
Maharal: If one is focused and thinking clearly, it is impossible to sin [while realizing G-d].

D-E-ep Thoughts: Even just the recognition alone of Hashem’s presence would keep us in a constant state of purity and free from the grasps of the evil inclination. Instead of getting lost in the hustle and bustle, we need to take spiritual ‘time-outs’ to analyze the world and reflect upon G-d’s gracious gifts.
