Wrestling With a Torch
Body and soul are in constant warfare, each trying to draw the other towards what they appreciate and enjoy.
With its use of a single root word for “wrestle” and “torch,” the Holy Tongue teaches us about the goal of this wrestling match between body and soul. The goal is not to obliterate material concerns and pleasures from one’s life. The goal is to create a torch.
