A quote from my book Virtuous Emanations of the Human Spirit.
As we experienced these celestial melodies, our souls were immersed in a love so pure and unconditional that it defies earthly description. It was a love that existed before the concept of time, a love that bound us to the Eternal G d and each other. These celestial melodies were not just expressions of individual love but of a collective, cosmic love that flowed through the entire symphony of existence.
The songs we sing on Earth, with their melodies and lyrics, are attempts to recreate, remember, and express the celestial melodies we once knew. Every beautiful song, every heartfelt lyric, is an earthly echo of the Divine harmonies we once participated in. It’s a way for our souls to reconnect with the spiritual vibrations of love and unity that transcend the material world.
In our earthly songs, we try to capture the essence of those celestial melodies—the joy, the love, the longing for the Divine. Music becomes a vessel, a bridge between the temporal and the eternal, allowing us to touch the tzitzit of the celestial melodies we once knew so intimately. These songs become prayers, expressing our yearning to reconnect with the Divine harmonies that still resonate in the depths of our souls.
Our eternal love for the Eternal G d finds expression in these earthly songs. Each note becomes a proclamation of the enduring connection between our souls and the Divine. Through the medium of music, we strive to communicate what our souls remember from the ethereal realms—a love that surpasses understanding, a joy that transcends time, and a unity that extends beyond the boundaries of the material world.
So, when we sing or listen to a beautiful song, let it be a reminder that we are part of a celestial melody that began before time. In the earthly strains of music, we catch glimpses of our eternal love for the Eternal G d, and the songs become a sacred language that speaks to the depths of our soul’s memory.
