About this episode
The month of Elul holds tremendous spiritual energies and potential, as it is the month of closeness and return to the Divine. The Torah teaches that this name - Elul, spelled א ל ו ל - is an acronym for the phrase in Song of Songs: אֲנִי לְדוֹדִי וְדוֹדִי לִי - I am to my Beloved, and my Beloved is to me. In this meditation, and using a deeply mystical allegory from the Zohar, the listener is guided through the cycle of this phrase, and into a visualization of this allegory, leading to a profound experience of rededication of one's goals to the pursuit of the Divine. Words used in this meditation: Elul - אלול - the Hebrew month of Elul אֲנִי לְדוֹדִי וְדוֹדִי לִי - I am to my Beloved, and my Beloved is to me (Song of Songs 6:3) שכינה - Shechina - the Divine Presence Music credits: Baby Sleep Music - Soothing Angelic Ambient - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNYB9fjox8g Baby Sleep Music - Meditation Healing Stress and Anxiety - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrT4KR7fgYc Baby Sleep Music - Tranquil Tones from Paradise - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMHFW06gQB4 Lee Rosevere - Self Care - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEfnAQyxVgk
