MUSIC - A Spiritual Power That Moves Us...

music The Power of aigun as we all know it's incredible power it is the power to spiritually uplift us and is that power to put us in depression and pain it can take us to all type of directions I wanted to introspect a little bit into this incredible spiritual power that we're all so familiar with just by the feelings not by the words that lies behind it something that's found very often in the Torah don't think that it's only some something that just came around by the as we all know in our saying the as the brings there 10 in the in the T there's by the know by there's saying two times Yeshua has a you have who brings two sh one of them being by masiah Shir is something that is found very often in the tah an incredible powerful type of feeling there's the shear of theim that even when they had their it says in the that people would be when they heard the power of the and their powerful their powerful song the people would bring back people from CH writes in the beginning of it's called the of the to be able to go ahead and sing those they had seven notes just as we have seven notes we have seven keys on a piano we all know that there's seven different notes and that's the seven notes that they had in the M by the M by the musical musicians over there in the mikdash but you should know that there is going to be a number eight because we all know seven has everything to do with the power of six directions in this world and seven is connect which is connects all those six desparate pieces to become one that's the power of seven that's why have seven days of creation seven days with Shabbat that's why there's a number of sevens that exist in our uh in our language such as obviously the seven days of in the seven days of p and the seven days of and the Seven the list goes on there were seven in the we have seven and we have the which was seven time seven seven times they walked around seven continents we all know that the number seven is found very often and has everything to do with but in the future we're going to add a number eight number eight is going to be that eighth note on the piano that eighth key that is added in because that mean anytime you do something a little bit above the it's always represented by the number of eight of course the eight days of Kana and of course the Eighth Day of was just us and of course the eth day where you do bre and we all know that's the power of seven that's why in it's there's the Z which is seven and Alf which is one because it goes One Step Above It goes a little bit over and Beyond and that's the idea of the number eight which will happen which is the day of on the 50th day 7 time seven and then number 50 is number eight the eth day that goes over and Beyond we see the power of Nan the power of is incredible and it's all over the place the the Angels the Angelic figures they sing on a concept basis they're singing says that you can hear the power of their wings they're singing the Praises of and and and we all know of course of perir the Shir that was the song of all of creation when all the creation sings the Praises ofes when the sun was quiet it stopped moving in the time of Yeshua because the is not something like us that we just develop a song and we get inspired by it it was their being it was their m their Essence to sing its whole function works I'll singing singing the Praises of and making that connection of course we all know that always was interested in the one who knew the great power of song and lastly we know there's an idea of T which is the and the we have four aspects to the Tor and when the highest of all the aspects above the letters and even above the crowns and the and the punctu is the the the song of the of the the canellation the canellation tunes those are the ones that we sing those are the ones that bring a spirit to the letters those are the ones that bring Spirit to the words they have an incredible power and that's why they're not written in the Torah someone one time came to and he wanted to make a plastic B with a computer print out based exactly according to the SE Tor put on top of the page of the SE Torah and that way the B wouldn't have to prepare because on this seethrough plastic you would be able to have the cancellations exactly as it's written according to the words it won't be written in the Torah but it'll be on top and said that's very problematic you're not supposed to have them there it's not meant to be there and therefore it's not there of course we're familiar with this incredible idea that we call a nigan that we call a song that we call music so great is this power says the these words there's nothing in this world that is more subtle more refined more esoteric more spiritual than music of course it's referring after tah there's nothing that you will find in the physical world because tah is not physical but in the physical world the most spiritually connected thing you can get to of course is music we all know that when a person has a has a song a good song he wants to dance where is that dance come from it's is coming to come out of his body it's coming to have a spiritual revelation it wants to go and reconnect to its creator and therefore suddenly you find your body moving it's such a funny thing to see that suddenly a few rings and a few this and a few Tunes over here and suddenly your body starts to a wringle to the right to the left to the a leg up a leg down all of a sudden you find yourself having a tremendous connection and it comes from this incredible spiritual phenomenon that we call music the Le in M right that's why an incredible thing that a you can't talk to him from here till tomorrow he won't send a word but suddenly you play manig and falls asleep he falls asleep because it's it's speaking to the to the spirit to the to the ruak inside of the person not necessarily the per se and therefore it has an incredible feeling we all know no one can describe it no one can understand as shim Pinkus in says that you know ahead and you go ahead and try to describe someone how tasty you're making a chocolate mousse seven layer cake and start describing to him the ingredients and everything that goes into it and you go ahead and describe it to one person and his mouth starts watering and the other person doesn't know what you're talking about because he's never tasted before if a person's familiar with it then it happens you know when I was younger I used to eat entiments and here is I try sometimes to describe to a good Israeli what timens is all about of course I don't touch it anymore because of the thing but when you go ahead and try to describe some Israeli what's timens he just goes you know it's like tasty so what n n you don't understand it's something different you just can't relate to what I'm describing sometimes you just have to taste it to appeal to it to relate to it to have some type of contact with it that's what music is all about with music only after you've experienced it you can describe it you can understand it you could feel it I could talk from here till tomorrow but only those who have come in connection with this incredible power that we call music they understand exactly what I'm talking about and everyone who's listening to this has don't think this is just um idea that I'm taking some idea and concept the used to say the the said from his reab he used to say these words if you really understand the reasons and the to understand the behind the songs of the and the of the T and the he said the only way to do it without the idea of knowing the power of AIG without the power of music through it person can die from the beauty of the music he means a deathly type of feeling just a type where it's just kind of defunction you it puts you down and you listen with Incredible ease it just relaxes you it could take you out of a depressing mood or the other way around and a person can be these are the words of the if a person would know the that liee behind them and they say one of the seven amongst the many that the V knew but one of the Prime Seven that he knew was the of music that's what it says there are many listen to this one he said there are many that came from you know where from hand me down also to the power of music This Is The Sound of Music the beauty of music and its power at its best it's an incredible thing that even the the man still can relate to the fact that music is so is so powerful okay this is the idea this is our to understanding this incredible Revelation that we know that we call uh music now how does this music work how does it work well the idea behind it more or less has to do with two aspects as we're familiar with there's two aspects to music there's the aspect that's the the the Rhythm what we call the melody that has the up and down part to it that part is a much more spiritual aspect for it that's the one that touches your n that's the one that as it says without G it doesn't have any limitations it goes over and Beyond and of course there's the other aspect which is behind the behind the armony and the lyrics is of course the the words itself the lyrics itself the words itself that is the part that is much more cognitive much more understood much more that we can connect to so to speak to relate to it both are needed both are intertwined you should know there is a between the and Bre is much more into the doesn't have to have words just the actual power of music itself that itself exemplifies it puts itself in you it goes in your bones and that could put you on a mile we all know ah the beautiful idea of just a straight Melody without having any words but then there's the second aspect which the breast of holds is the m function and the main function of course is the word the words takes from the right brain the part that's a little bit more abstract the part that's more and it takes it to becoming a little bit more into the to the place where it connects actually to the Mind where it physically is able to be placed to be able to put there in a place where I can actually connect to the words to relate to the words to be able to grow from the the speaks to the L to the N but the word speaks to the SE which is more bound it's more limited it has much more of a left brain approach much more cognitive it's actually a little bit more limited but it actually somewhere where you can grow from and therefore really really the importance are both together both together have the power of being able to grow to be able to gain and it depends on the individual and each individual takes it to his own perspective to his own place some people will take from the same niggan something depressing and'll put them in tears I have to remember I remember very clearly one time being on a point of Transportation I was on an airplane and someone next to me was playing music of an old song that I remember I won't call it a niggan I'll call it an old song back from the'80s which related me back to so many things from so many years ago decades and decades ago and suddenly just put me in such a mood such a place whereas the other person was smile he was laughing for the and it didn't bother him from the song didn't bother him at all he was just connected what's the difference it's the same song how do we come from two different places the answer is it puts you in a certain place it places your mind in a certain area and that place is where I can connect to it it brings out the best of your n or maybe sometimes the worst it all depends on the person himself the that's Solomon has a piece in puim about this subject and he intertwines the piece of music together with wine and just like we know that wine is meant to be a means to an end what we call a said not an ending of itself as the M writes in the he says don't make wine and end to become a drunker on it should be a way becoming tipsi and connecting to so to the power of music that's the idea of Music especially the music we might be singing on PO him coming soon is the idea of trying to connect ourselves to to to to bring out a part of us that sometimes is limited we just can't get there but we need the melody the rhythm of the up and the down and the seven chords that kind of just gets to the chords of our hearts those are the places where sometimes we're able to actually relate to get there instead of just being systemat systematic and robotic sometimes when you're learning something completely cognitive suddenly you feel I so remember one time about a few decades ago when I was a b in Yesa and I remember I had a rebi who himself was a b Chua and I remember we all singing the song and everyone singing and we're all singing like if I could say it's just a system that people do it you enjoy the song but it's something that we're familiar a tune that we're all used to and therefore we're all singing it but I remember looking at him and it so stands so boldly in my mind almost 40 years ago 35 years ago or so and I still see it in front of my face him looking with his eyes closed standing in the circle saying with the words the focus of the words he took the niggan but he placed his mind on the words I'm anev to it got deeper every time he said it and even if we wanted to change the tune it wasn't changed he kept going enough how many times do you say the same song no no you don't understand you know I can come here and say the same sheer every week and nobody will listen FS people don't want to hear the same thing every week every week they want to hear something different they want to hear something entertaining but what's with the song I Al I'm jealous of singers they know the same words to the same songs same concert same place and they do it and they're incredible and they have stand audiences sold out sold out sold out crowds what's theot same words the answer is there's something about that Negan that puts the words into the kishkas it makes it part of you it makes it part of your heart that makes it connect to it in such a way it's the power of the melody but don't leave the melody just for the melody itself make it do a change make it some type of alteration it has to go ahead and affect you in some type of way has to do something where you can make some type of metamorphosis I know not every song is going to do that but you have to take the song and connect it to take you to somewhere else there are these great and there that have these excellent songs and we know there's some things called as go ahead you know they try to do a shab with all these beautiful songs and everything if it's just that for the song itself then it could be we might be missing the point we're there to take those Melodies take those songs and do something with it to put us in a different place to make it a little bit more Everlasting a little bit more connected what can I do with this to take me Vitter to to to connect me to a place that's even over and Beyond with this we can understand a very interesting idea this idea is brought to you in the many of them brings in you should know he brings the speaks about this idea and Theus and others say an incredible difference there is a big important difference between when we talk about what we call a sheer which is a song and when we talk a zra isn't that the same word Z is also a song they're both Zas they're both songs what exactly is the difference between the two so the difference is a Shear a Shear is a string that's attached to an animal it's AAR Shabbat that brings about that you hold a A or a donkey by by its neck with a rope you wrap around its neck with a rope and that's called a sheer that holds on to it a she a song is what we call instant inspiration you go ahead and you listen you get an up from it you enjoy it but you know what not always is it something lasting it's quick to go in and quick to go out not always you can go ahead and take it you can continue with it and you can go ahead and make something of it and yes these are the shim that we spoke about all the 10 shim that we discussed before about the happened after incredible Miracle a point of inspiration a point of and praise to thank you so much and you go ahead and you sing the praises to and it's great because we all know even when someone goes through a hard time and he says thank you to hem for pulling me out of there a few days later a few weeks later a few months later usually it's a little bit died down the connection is not necessarily there anymore it pulled you for some of us it lasted and for the most of us it didn't that's the K and the beauty of year and it's important but like I said it could be usually temporary as opposed to a z a z a what we call Z such as the Mis all the M are called Mis we sing the on Shabbat or of course we say in daving that's a different type of Level A Z is interesting because it's what we call in English a cont a cont something that the same word can be used for One Direction and it's counter opposite you follow if you have the word when had had had relations with it's known as meaning a complete connection but you know that also is the opposite we say in the word we say because is the one who knows how to make a difference between who knows how to see a difference between one and the other or we know the idea of when a man is mades the idea ofes is making it user to the whole world when he's mades a woman he makes her user to the whole entire world hegdish when he makes something sanctifies it he makes it user to the whole entire world but K that's the ultimate connection that's the ultimate relationship that we have your you sanctify her become connected to her by answering her to the whole entire world so we see the same world can have opposite connotations the word Z of course is the idea of I go ahead and connect to hem at the same time as Z also means Z it's one of the is to prune a tree when you break off a branch when you when you disconnect it when you find some disaffiliation between some one thing and another you're Z you break so at the same time we're talking about separating breaking a tree breaking off his br Es at the same time the is the one that makes the connection to how does that work the answer is the real way to make the real proper connection through a z to is close the ears this this disconnect from the outside try to slowly but surely focus on the words focus on the melody on the nigan on the zmer at the same time as you're focusing on those words make that decision to make a connection to go ahead and make a connection and you'll suddenly find yourself in a different world it's much different than just an immediate Shear of gratification it comes from a place of actual connection which comes through a little bit of work when you prune a tree in your Z when you break off the branches you're doing something that looks bad but is very beneficial we all know it helps the tree that's the whole reason why you're doing it and that's the idea when PUK zimra you're meant to you're meant to go ahead and have a little bit of concentration on the words at the same time as you might be singing it you're supposed to focus concentrate put a little of what we call ruz put all your energy into the words and try to take it to another level take it a little bit higher if you just hear it in a Shear such as now or read it in a book it won't be anywhere close to when you hear it in a song so take the song and use it for its incredible power as we all know the is that the gar says that one should not be singing and it's a really big question amongst theim if you should be singing or not be singing Pim and we all know we're just not keeping to that one so I once heard bem that he used to say if a person comes to sing and he adds some suim that's what the gar meant when it says it's User it's not allowed but if a person wants to say a PK and he wants to put a little bit of flavor into it he wants to connect he wants to put himself in another place ah over here it's a different area over here you're raising yourself you're raising the bar of course that's M that's a Mitzvah that's a good thing to do I know someone who lived not far away from the stier gone believe it or not he didn't leave very far away from the stier many many decades ago almost 50 years ago and he said at 3:00 in the morning sometimes you would go out in his merid and he would hear the stier who was with his tender outside of mid suddenly thinking and he was mummified because the STP never wasted one minute here he was with his G outside but he stopped in the middle because he suddenly felt he suddenly felt a connection he suddenly felt a a zet of a connection to a and he took it to a different level he took it to a place where he could do it with a nigan not just St he took it to a place where he can make that extra connection to a that's what a zmer is all about and that's the beauty of Zimmer the beauty of Music That's what's so good about it and that's why you're supposed to use it that was the at the time when the a was going it would there to be as long as it was utilized for the right way of course everything can be used for the good and for the bad you have to be extremely careful not to falter it to make sure that it doesn't go to the wrong directions I want to tell you what the says you know what the says he brings from the mid that when was with it uses three words is relationship a connection is a drive an instant and he had a he was interested a he says those three words are also used for Anan it could be used for T that's what was using it for or it can be used for kadus a person makes that decision now he wants to take it it's the of the way to do it having a over there brings in the this idea that it has this capability of going in both directions so here we have it what we've learned thus far today is the idea that there's a shear and a Zer and you have immediate gratification there's much deeper when we talk about the deeper gratification we said there's two parts to it there's the and there's the words both are important one is the LA and one is a we need to have both of them in order to inspire us and what is a drive it takes whatever is within you and it makes more of it and it fluctuates it it makes extra drives it out what's within you if a person is Mal it'll for if a person is M Kusa it'll pull it up for Kusa and if a person needs help and wants to get there that's the that's how we're supposed to use the music that's the beauty of the and that's where it's supposed to take us there was once a rashash Shiva who had to go to two weddings in the same night familiar story but the problem is it was quite a distant away and he had to be mad kadan in two places at the same time now of course we're not talking about Eli so he had to figure out how he was going to do that so he did the first he did the first kadan he was mad and then he left quite quickly he jumped in a cab and there was a person there if I could say a little bit of a colored man and he told him listen buddy you got to put the pedal to the metal because I got to get to another K within a half he didn't say he said wedding within a half an hour and the place is quite far it was an hour drive so the guy said listen buddy I know what you guys don't like there's certain type of music that I like let me turn on the radio let me turn on to the rap music which I'm into let me listen to that and I'll get you there in half an hour boom bo b bo b boom b boom and he got him there swerving around left and right and he was able to get him there in half an hour I don't know if he had the head to be mad kadan after that but anyways we see the power from the same power of music can take it in both directions it all depends if you're or if you're Yu it all depends on what direction you're going to take it and this is the power that we were discussing and what you're capable of doing all end with a h point that comes out of this a very interesting one that comes out from this when that we'll finish is in the that's the someone he brings the and others that were upset with that were using tunes of the now we're talking about a and they were obviously discussing Arabic canellation H right that type of music you know what I'm talking about and anyways and he was very upset these people were very upset about it and he goes at length to say and prove that a n a tune is notum it has not become something wrong with it it's the words that make the difference because it takes you to the direction but using an Aon using a tune in the direction that you use it is okay as long as it's use it for a d That's the comes out and he says okay the also brings this and concurs he agrees with this idea that's the IG mosha also in a similar note listen to this he was asked that there is a person who learned inas and he's a and he goes ahead and he makes groups of boys and girls that sometimes are sitting side by side Etc and he's doing a lot of inspirational music I think we all are familiar he was talking about he was talking about obviously this dises but over here with the real was happening at the time and they were wondering if you know with sadik not sadik I'm not I don't know I'm not going to what L status he was but they wanted to know is there something wrong with listening to this type of music or these types of scenarios now he's not talking about going to any mixed events that's not discussing he's talking about post after he's not alive anymore can you still go and over there mosha basically says A Min who writes a sa Torah a heretic who writes sa Tor has to be burnt but if someone who is in IM moreal incorrect or he's not he's not pad or these types of things he's not the best of best it does not posle he says the sa does not make it necessarily uh wrong and therefore he held that it is beset to listen to the music as long as you use the music for its right direction doesn't have any to it and therefore he says it's okay to go ahead and do it unless we're talking about someone who had some type ofir to him some type of heresy so then it would be a problem but just if he's a little bit of certain issues might be okay I'm throwing this out parenthetically listen to this people agree or don't agree it doesn't matter you could shove if you don't agree that what happened with Kim Walder and people trashing all his books I do think it connects to this chuva of rosha Feinstein I wish rosha was alive at the time to be able to Pas this but to me this sounds exactly the same he says if the guy was a Cofer a heretic s some type ofur if he was a Christian or an Arab if you will and he was writing books trash them but if the person had a bad history and he wasn't such a good guy and yes he had issues with him so he says the books are not the she is you could use it as long to use it for decent purposes rosha didn't seem to have a problem with it take the chu mosha cut and paste and you tell me what you think if you agree or don't agree I'm happy people give me feedback because to me it sounds like there wasn't necessarily a reason to trash all his books per se even though I'm not vouching for the person at all okay don't worry that's not what I meant anyways so that is the Chas that we see over here that music can be good music can go bad it's all a matter of Direction it's there to bring out the beauty of the person to bring the beauty that lies within the person and that is this incredible present and one of the seven which I mentioned that gave us that we call the power of AIG and therefore if a person goes to one of these Min if you go to or when you're singing or when you're doing any of these types of things no problem it's great we listen to music I listen to music we all do it just try to channel it to the direction it's supposed to be channeled try to take it to a place which is a good place try to use this in incredibly powerful utensil not to be a drunkard not to roll around in in uh in in in in your in your if I could say in you're being sick or whatever to go ahead and take it to the wrong place drink drink in order to bring yourself to the right place drink in order yourself to get there when you listen to the music channel it bring out the best that's within you show how much you can be doic to and from there we will sing the Praises that we say in on a Conant basis with which rinkus [Applause] says he says a person should be the of music of connection to a it's important to sing We Sing h sing M we're supposed to sing and to be with because it gets us in a in a place of and we're big Believers of going it and using it but he says as of course we say the Praises of are meant to be said
