LOVE IS AS ABSOLUTE AS THE GRAVE is the most profound statement of any sacred literature found anywhere and in all time. These words are from the “holiest of all the writings” as the Reb Akiva called the “Song of Songs”. This is the very heart and essence of redemption and the Pesach festival. As we know especially this year the Purim celebration, a special meshulash Purim, has never ended. Purim was celebrated with the ancient American corn dance of the walled cities of the Pueblo Indians on Shushan Purim which occurred on Sunday when Christians celebrated Easter. Easter met Esther in the Corn Mother dance of ancient America. The Chayah level of soul is the one of the five levels of soul that is an unfolding key for our times. She speaks in the Song of Songs and is the protagonist as Queen Esther in the Purim miracle. The contraries of awesome life are joining in a new way this very year and time. Esther met Easter!The Song is the heart of Pesach and is chanted during this feast. Like the Book of Esther the Song at the literal level appears not to mention HaShem at all. Here is a hint. The book of Esther only literally mentions a name of the Source in 4:14 as Makom “the Place” according to some rabbinic teachings. It is “the Place” and who is speaking in the Song of Songs that is a key to a deeper understanding of this “Holiest of all the writings”. This blog will concentrate on this song for the next several weeks, maybe forever? As the concealed is revealed and the contraries whirl into each other during this time of geulah/redemption. A native elder is now announcing that we have entered the period the rabbis call Techiyas Hametim, the enlivening of the dead. The new book by Brooke Medicine Eagle is called, “The New Ghost Dance” which is the Plains Indian name for the Techiyas Hametim. The picture on the cover shows a sacred dancer and reveals some great mysteries about the holy peoples and who might be speaking in the “Song of all Songs“. Read about the image on the website about the book. White Buffalo Woman and Dawn Star are two important beings from ancient native sacred history that are part of the image and relate to the lovers in the Song of Songs. Have a great awesome wonderful passover celebration!! celebrate freedom and may we all find our city of peace. Shabbat Shalom
