Difference between yetzer ha’ra and klipat nogah?
Ayanah asked 5 years ago
I am referring to the latest of the Rabbis lecture on Chanukkah (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7bAlGci68U). He explains the klipat nogah. What is the difference between the yetzer hara and the klipad yavan // klipat noga? I know that there are the 3 domains and that chanukkah is around klipat nogah. Please explain?

Shalom,
The noga is one of several levels or aspects of klipa which we deal with.
The yetzerhara however is the general term or concept of a evil inclination which is both seducer judge and executing force but it’s set up so that we are the only source of energy that can feed the yetzerhara. As long as we minimize its nourishment we maximize our joy!’
