Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, Yah Tziva'ot, M'lo chol haAretz K'vodo

This is the beginning of the Kedusha, an important and oft repeated section of
our liturgy which describes the prophet Isaiah's vision of the angels who are
chanting to one another. The Talmud (Sotah49a) says that "The world is maintained
by the Keushah." This is an important proof-text affirming the power of chant.
When I chant the words Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, I lift myself up into the angelic
realms, reaching beyond my normal perceptions into the subtle vibrations of
"Holiness". When I chant the words Yah Tziva'ot, I open my crown chakra and allow
those high and holy vibrations to pour down into my body, filling me. When I chant
the words M'lo chol haAretz K'vodo, I let the eyes of my heart open my physical
eyes until I can see and point to the Presence of God everywhere.
