Letter 361

One must greatly strengthen oneself in the Torah of Hashem — and to fulfill the judgments of the Torah in all their wholeness. And to guard oneself even from the slightest blemish — Heaven forbid. Only — even if Heaven forbid his blemishes are very many — Heaven have mercy — one must greatly strengthen oneself in one's mind. And to trust in the righteousness of Hashem and in His abundant and endless kindnesses. Through which — even he will be able to draw close and to return to Him in truth.
