A person should regularly contemplate how the source of his soul is truly in the upper worlds, as a Jews’ spirit is from the Divine Throne and only came down to this world temporarily to amass Torah and mitzvas for his eternal reward. This is like a person who travelled to a far-off land for a rare market day where he can earn in one day what a person earns in many years. If on that special day someone would offer him a free newspaper, he would not even look at it, for every minute there he could be amassing tremendous wealth. So too, one should scorn someone who offers him a newspaper to read, for why would he spend his time on vanities and lose the unique opportunity for which he was sent all the way down from the Divine Throne.
