    Default Touching The Divine

    Life can be so dry and flat. So few have the energy or wherewithal to attempt to escape the gravity of standardism and really create some magic. Once in a while it happens though, and their expression, whatever it is, helps the rest of us thru another day.

    This thread is for that type of magic.

    It can be anything that removed you from yourself and raised you up to to something divine, or something more...and helped to create a feeling or feelings that you forgot you could have. It connected you, gave you hope, inspired you. It might be a song, an interview, a poem, a sport highlight, or whatever. It offered you a piece of something you didn't previously have, or you forgot you had, and reinvigorated you in some way.

    This performance did this for me tonight. It's just remarkable. It moved me a little, jostled my spirit and reminded me that I'm still alive:


    Feel free to post anything that has done the same for you.

    The famous 2012 live performance of Stairway to Heaven, by Ann and Nancy Wilson (Heart) with an orchestra and choir, before the living members of Led Zeppelin.

    The best that's ever been done, including by Led Zeppelin themselves. Robert Plant is seen reduced to tears.

    For anyone who's unaware of this, it's almost mandatory to see.

    This song brings back some very powerful teenage memories for me. When I was a young reprobate teenager I’d sit it a recliner chair out at the back of the house (where the stereo was), at night with all the lights off, and listen to the studio (album) version of this track LOUD in full Dolby stereo, watching the lightning flashes from the springtime storms through the massive glass doors that opened on to our back yard. Our house was on the banks of a huge saltwater lagoon (North Manly, NSW, Australia), and the glow in the sky would reflect off this huge body of water. I might have not liked myself too much back then, but, oh boy, did I let my spirits soar when listening to this song, and indeed the whole album.

    Many thanks, Star Mariner, for this post.

    I went into deep meditation using hylotropic breathing and my cat jumped onto my lap. I didn't want to pull out of the trance state so I just let him settle down. Seconds later I went back into a past life and I was galloping bare back on my horse through rolling hills on an open plane. It was exhilarating and euphoric. I then felt the oneness that I am part of the all and thus part of the horse. Then I realized my cat Sam was my horse in his past life and we are here together again. Uncontrollable tears rolled down my face.

    We humans are capable of such great things. Spare a moment to appreciate our performing arts:



    The performers, notwithstanding; the logistics to create such a spectacle is nothing sort of extraordinary.

    Watched Torvill and Dean as a child. Their ice dancing was inspirational to millions.
    This dance is just exquisite.

    Matisyahu - One Day
    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)

    Sometimes I lay
    Under the moon
    And thank God I'm breathing
    Then I pray
    Don't take me soon
    'Cause I am here for a reason

    Sometimes in my tears I drown
    But I never let it get me down
    So when negativity surrounds
    I know some day it'll all turn around because...

    All my life I've been waiting for
    I've been praying for
    For the people to say
    That we don't wanna fight no more
    There will be no more wars
    And our children will play

    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)

    It's not about
    Win or lose
    'Cause we all lose
    When they feed on the souls of the innocent
    Blood-drenched pavement
    Keep on moving though the waters stay raging

    In this maze you can lose your way (your way)
    It might drive you crazy but don't let it faze you, no way (no way)
    Sometimes in my tears I drown (I drown)
    But I never let it get me down (get me down)

    So when negativity surrounds (surrounds)
    I know some day it'll all turn around because...
    All my life I've been waiting for
    I've been praying for
    For the people to say
    That we don't wanna fight no more
    There will be no more wars
    And our children will play

    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)

    All my life I've been waiting for
    I've been praying for
    For the people to say
    That we don't wanna fight no more
    There will be no more wars
    And our children will play

    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)

    One day this all will change
    Treat people the same
    Stop with the violence
    Down with the hate

    One day this all will change
    Treat people the same
    Stop with the violence
    Down with the hate
    One day we'll all be free
    And proud to be
    Under the same sun
    Singing songs of freedom like

    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)

    All my life I've been waiting for
    I've been praying for
    For the people to say
    That we don't wanna fight no more
    There will be no more wars
    And our children will play

    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)
    One day (one day), One day (one day)

    This version is one of 3000 people, singing in three languages, and one Haifa all singing Koolulam and hoping that the 'One Day' is near.

    Out of sheer desperation and months of grief and sadness of my son’s death, I gave up and collapsed to the ground in the dead of winter.

    No more tears came. No sobs. Only silence. I landed in the center of Blessed Silence. No need to think or wonder or feel. Nothing.

    When I got up, I thought it snowed until I took a closer look. There were tiny, tiny feathers all around me. I don’t know how many I collected. Lots. When I checked, I watched them disappear in my hand like snowflakes. And as if on cue, the feathers that had outlined my body did the same.

    Ave Maria Composed in 1825 by Franz Schubert, this 'Hymn to the Virgin' is one of the most popular Christmas compositions worldwide.

    Ave Maria

    Queen of Heaven
    My prayer rises to you
    I must find favor in your eyes
    It's in you,
    oh! It is in you that I hope
    My son
    Console my misery
    He suffers
    Alas he is dying
    Understand and cry, you who were a mother
    Give me back, give me back my poor child

    Ave Maria
    What happiness
    The child is reborn at his prayer
    As well as a brilliant flower
    All well done!
    Oh touching beauty!
    This mystery
    Look at me so that
    I hope
    My son, your forehead is smiling
    Thank you, thank you divine
    Mother It's you who save my child
    Ave Maria



    the expression of the divine is in the connection of the soul with the music, therefore to find the music which will enchant the spirit and echo the heart of the being ...
