| Mar 7, 2013 at 1:20 | comment | added | RCW | @Yehoshua He made no mention of another source. However, I was just thinking about the premise of your question for a "Makor". Any source that would explain Ruach Rah as a currently identifiable physical phenomena like germs would have to be pretty recent coinciding with medical/scientific discovery. If that were the case the "Mekor" I would imagine would be equally as qualified as Rav Soloveichik to provide an explanation. Therefore, wouldn't really add much other than having another great mind agree. | |

| Mar 6, 2013 at 6:00 | comment | added | Yehoshua | @DoubleAA Fair enough. I had imagined always a more "spiritual definition". | |

| Mar 5, 2013 at 23:39 | comment | added | RCW | @Yehoshua Do you have another working theory? | |
| Mar 5, 2013 at 22:58 | comment | added | Yehoshua | Hmm, maybe...... | |
