Notes on Bandcamp page:

"'Enlightenment, understood in the widest sense as the advance of thought, has always aimed at liberating human beings from fear and installing them as masters. Yet the wholly enlightened earth is radiant with triumphant calamity.'
—'Dialectic of Enlightenment', Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer

"In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, one true God. Amen.

"The times are dark, and pestilence, famine, war, and death rule הַעוֹלָם הַזֶּ֗ה.
To listen to the still, small voice in our hearts is increasingly difficult as we view more and more chaos unfolding before us: neighbours distrusting neighbours, nations taking up arms against nations, man's inhumanity to man.

"Yet to keep quiet and listen to that voice is to hear the proclamation of a new nation, the Kingdom of God, which is within all of us. Whether you call it hesychasm or דְּבֵקוּת, it shows a glimpse of הַעוֹלָם הַבָּא, which we can only pray to come soon.

"In the meantime, let us show compassion to one another, comfort the suffering, and share in one another's joy.

"On this Walpurgisnacht 2018:
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, one true God. Amen."
