Levon Helm's family is asking for your prayers, The Band’s singer and drummer, 71, is in the final stages of his battle with cancer: Please send your prayers and love to him as he makes his way through this part of his journey.
For over a decade, the iconic singer who came to fame as drummer for Dylan’s band, later known as The Band, has battled the cancer; nothing stands before death and no one wins the battle against death – but, there are the chosen few whose presence is needed in the world.
When God calls the soul abroad, it is wise to let go of the body and return to heaven from where the soul began the journey of life. Levon lived to perform his music – music that gave life to the world. In the two Temples that stood for 830 years, music accompanied sacrifice.
Music is essential to life. The musician’s journey through the seven notes is comparable to life’s journey through the seven Sefirot/Luminaries corresponding to the seven emotions, set in two triangles along three pillars, culminating in conclusion, as described in the Cabala.
There are 42 stops recorded in the Torah as the Jewish People journeyed from slavery to freedom; My teacher taught me, Everyone has at least 42 stops during life’s journey, but some have many more. Thank you Levon, for being there in the good times and the difficult times.
