Blessings are Drawing Down the Spiritual into the Physical
Blessings are …a drawing down of spiritual potential into physical form. The word for blessing in Hebrew is ‘beracha’ which means ‘drawing down.’ When we say a blessing – either over food or something else physical, we are drawing down a flow of divinity (spiritual source) into the physical. When we bless someone we are using our compassion to help draw down concealed spirituality into a revealed state for another. In both these circumstance we are opening up the channels between the hidden and the revealed, aligning the flow as one.
