The Encounter with the Soul

„The soul indeed sings always... and a person must lift himself up to the height of the encounter with his soul.”From Shemonah Kevatzim VII, 221

We never stop singing, but we do not always notice it, and the flow of life sometimes causes a feeling that the wellspring has dried up. But the wellspring flows always, and what changes is our gaze, and our ability to receive the abundance, and at times the surrounding situation that brings us down and does not allow us to see the good. "They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness."
