Calling to the Divine

Man, it’s interesting how you follow an impulse to do something and over time, a zillion amazing things unfold as a result.

~ Join a certain choir because after 6 years of nothing calling to me I finally find something local that appeals to me.
~ Become friends with someone in the choir
~ She invites me to a “tupperware” type party about cookware. While I generally dislike these sales parties I decide to attend.
~ Re-meet a woman there whom I met at a workshop last year.  (my friend met the woman a couple months earlier when her dog ran away.)
~ Attend the woman’s baby shower
~ Meet a couple at the baby shower who know my cousin, a swami in the Krishna movement. The wife has been thinking for a couple weeks that she wants to meet relatives of my cousin so she can be of service to them as an indirect way to be of service to my cousin. She meets me. Cool!
~ Go to the couple’s home for dinner/socializing. They are Russian Jews who have become Krishna devotes. My grandparents were Russian Jews. The couple tells me there is someone doing Hebrew Kirtan. Fascinating!
~ Google Hebrew Kirtan, find some beautiful music, AND a fascinating article about Calling to the Divine. Here’s one section of the article that wowed me.

(About singing the Kirtan) The operative phrase here is “as best you can.” You don’t have to be a singer to sing. You only have to sing. The quality of your intention is key. WHEN YOU MAKE FOR ME AN ALTAR OF STONES DO NOT MAKE THEM HEWN. [Exodus 20:23] The altar of God, the place you come to connect to that which is truest about you and the world, is to be built with unhewn stones. An unhewn stone is natural, raw, and hard to use. It is not fashioned into a conventional shape. It is as God created it. Torah is saying that your worship of God must be unhewn, natural, raw and not neatly shaped, fashioned, and convenient. The unhewn stone conforms to nothing but itself. It is what it is, and it is exactly what God wants as the building blocks of worship. Click to read whole article

How powerful is that! So affirming that I can be as I am. That God WANTS me to be just as I am. Reminds me of a great Poco song “Rough Edges” where a  guy is asking for a girl not to pass him up.  “I’m not a stone that’s been polished and shined, I’m not the diamond that you had in mind. I can’t hide it, you get what you see. I’ve got a lot of rough edges on me.” If you’d like to hear a clip of the song click here. I think the whole album is great…listening to it now.  🙂

I’m pretty sure the amazing things in this chain are continuing. Something tells me this Kabbalah Kirtan info and music is going to teach me something that will make its way into my third manual on energy healing. I’ll keep you posted.
