          "text": "3 When a person becomes physically hungry and thirsty, the soul becomes weakened as well. This is because the soul desires to elevate the sparks of holiness that are found in foods and drinks. When we eat or drink for a holy purpose (such as to have energy for learning Torah or performing good deeds), we elevate the sparks within those foods, thereby giving energy and satisfaction not only to the body, but to the soul as well.",
