I’ve heard that singing and music is really special and it has a big effect on your neshama. Is this true? Does it really do anything?
Look at the Levyim singing by the sacrifices which added to the service of Hashem through joy. Music generates happines and sadness depending on the tune. and affects the spirit.
Music makes people happy and joyful and is one of the biggest mitzvas in the Torah
Music/singing is a language that all people can understand in varying degrees, it is the only “universal language”. In Shmuel Alef, Right after Shmuel and Shaul meet for the first time, Smuel Hanavi tells Shaul a few things that will happen to him on his way home, one of them(I think it is the last one) was that he would prophesize with a bunch of other prophets, the way that the prophets would elevate themselves spiritually would be through music.
I am seeing a presentation that their was music played in Aushwitz. The natzis ym’s did it to show everything is fine and for the Jews it helped them to cope with the environment.
singing is called קולמוס הנפש the pen of the soul. singing touches the soul. in an expression of the soul. it can bring you to the desired mood/feelings. the singing during the tefilos of rosh hashana and yom kipur bring to the spirit of those days, and the singing on simchas torah and at weddings bring to joy.
that’s why a man should not listen to a women singing.
thats why many are carfull to what songs they sing and listen to.Music is the universal language which everyone can understand whether it is happy or sad which affects the spirit.
