Reading Torah ~ Enveloped in Splendor, Being in Gratitude 

Malchut sh b' Hod

Kabbalistic Sephirat HaOmer - day 35

TORAH BLISS

First time I read Torah

Miriam HaNeviah in Exodus Parshat B'Shalach 15:20

(and every time)

At times 
in shul, 
whether I'm in a chapel or garden-- 
a sacred place of prayer, 

Holiness infuses me with a palpable density of Hod. 

The cantor carries me on wings of song; 
rabbi teaches from the heart, 
touching me; 
 Congregation, too, reverberates.

Torah is alive;
flowing through me
revealed energy of Divine Presence.

 I have received
and I am fully with Light
enveloped in Splendor, Awe and Gratitude. 
Delight ~
Malchut sh b'Hod.
Baruch Hashem

Miriam HaNeviah in Exodus Parshat B'Shalach 15:20

"Miriam the Prophetess, sister of Aaron, took her drum in her hand,

and all the women went forth after her with drums and with dances."

Joy wears the hand-ribboned tallit she designed 

based on Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi's, z"l, Sephirot colors

and friend Ruth Zitch, z"l, wove in the ribbons

after removing weft threads. Joy fringed and knotted Tzitzit.
