In Jewish Torah thought, the physical pleasures of life are a wonderful, positive thing, when elevated and used in the pursuit of the Divine. This is the purpose of reciting a Bracha, a blessing, before eating food, as it allows for the alignment of will and pleasure, and leads to the ultimate Tikkun, perfection, of the food being consumed. In this meditation, the listener is guided through the recital of the blessing over water in deep spiritual meditation, leading to the profound joy of synergy between pleasure and will.
