Editing Levushim (section)

== The Advantage of Levushim ==
Though these three tools are merely tools and not the essence of the soul, they have a great advantage over the attributes of the soul. For the soul and its faculties, though they can have a much greater insight of G-dliness,<ref>Especially when they are not yet enclothed in a body, when there insight is not limited to our physical understandings. In this way, the Alter Rebbe, in the Tanya quoted below, explains the advantage of living in this world versus enjoying G-dliness in [[Gan Eden]], for only in this world can we attach ourselves with G-d through these "garments."</ref> they can never grasp G-d, Who is essentially ungraspable. However, when the soul enlothes itself in these "garments," it can comprehend, speak in, and perform the teachings and laws of the Torah, which is G-d's Wisdom. G-d's wisdom and G-d are one<ref>Rambam.</ref>. In this way, the soul, which is enclothed in these garments, can attach itself to G-d and thus unite with Him.<ref>''Tanya,'' ch. 4.</ref>
