The daily strengthening from The Rav, the holy gaon and tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, about repairing the soul through sacred melodies

Friday, 8 Adar II 5782—these are his holy words: Rebbe Nachman says to do an hour of Hisbodedus, at a time when all the grasses are singing, all the trees are singing. You go out to the field and you’ll see how the trees sway—how the grasses sway according to the rhythm of song. Someone who understands song can see how they move—just look! Sit a full hour by the bushes, by the grass, and watch how they sway. Leave aside what they are praying and singing—you can simply hear the melodies. You can hear them even if you still haven’t… And now they took all kinds of devices and saw that melodies truly emerge. First of all, if you pluck some flower—even a blade of grass—immediately a terrible scream comes out! Because it is being torn—an awful cry comes out. And even secular science books will write about this, about the song of the grasses, their melodies. They put on a disc with melodies near flowers, near tomatoes, and then they grow more beautifully. Because it is all through melodies—the soul grows through melodies.
