When a Grieving Father Asked Einstein About the Soul

Picture a rabbi in 1950, broken by the death of his eleven-year-old son. He writes to the only person he believes might understand the magnitude of his loss: Albert Einstein. What comes back isn't a scientific treatise or cold comfort, but a profound insight that would echo through decades: "A human being is part of the whole, called by us 'Universe'... He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness." This exchange between Rabbi Robert Marcus-who saved hundreds of children from Buchenwald-and Einstein becomes the gateway to understanding what we've lost in modern life: connection to our souls. Not the soul as some abstract religious concept, but as the truest version of ourselves, the "Me within me" that knows our purpose and sees beyond the narrow confines of ego. When we feel empty despite our achievements, when success tastes hollow, when we sense we're living someone else's life-these aren't signs of failure but soul-sickness, the distance between who we are and who we're meant to be. From childhood, many of us sense something deeper calling. But life teaches us to ignore that voice. We chase what the world values-status, wealth, approval-while an inner compass spins uselessly, unable to guide us because we've stopped checking it. Think of it like having a brilliant advisor who never stops offering wisdom, but we've put them on permanent mute. The soul operates through what mystics call Expansive Mind, contrasting sharply with our default Narrow Mind. Narrow Mind keeps us petty, jealous, trapped in reactive patterns. It sees the world as disconnected fragments where we must fight for our piece. Expansive Mind-our soul's natural state-perceives unity, compassion, and possibility. It's the difference between road rage and recognizing that the driver who cut you off might be rushing to the hospital. Same situation, radically different perspectives. Most questions we wrestle with are actually soul questions disguised as practical problems. Should I change careers? Why do my relationships feel empty? What's the point of all this? These aren't logistical puzzles but spiritual longings.
