The English version compels me to write, as a student, or a scribe.
The Hebrew version draws me like a moth to a flame. It speaks to me from an ancient memory. The words evoke a feeling I have had only once before in this lifetime, very long ago, when I stepped out of the plane on the runway in Tel Aviv. Suddenly I knew I was Home.
I do not speak Hebrew in this incarnation but I hold pure certainty that it won’t be long and I will know these words again.
Several years ago, I got a copy of the Zohar and started reading it. It was definitely with the wrong intention. I was trying to read it intellectually and figure it out. That didn’t happen! I ended up giving it away. Now with a change in heart posture and instruction from Kabu I am starting to feel it. How do you really describe it? It’s cleansing like rain, calm like the eye of a storm, tender like a mother’s touch, firm like a father’s guidance. Completely unbreakable and done in total love. And as wonderful as all of this is already, I feel an enormous depth still waiting to be discovered. This is just the tip of the iceberg!
I am not mother tongue English, but still, it’s a common language for me, whereas I unfortunately don’t know a word of Hebrew. I like the sound of both languages , so in both cases I could just calm down through the sound of it.But that might just be a mental effect of relaxation. Listening to the English version, I could not stop my mind creating pictures connecting to the content. Mostly something containing the flow of light and energy. In Hebrew, I found myself to be calmer, but also less attentive. Both is giving me peace.
