When these die, their remains fertilize the soil for new growth, aided by the sun and rain. It is a marvelous and extraordinarily intricate system. This symphony of different components is the song of nature. But this is a shallow perspective, taking nature at face value alone. When we consider that each aspect of nature manifests different spiritual qualities, the song takes on an entirely new dimension.
Nature is seen to be a tapestry of spiritual colors, playing a transcendent melody.
This is the real symphony of nature. We can develop the metaphor of an orchestra more fully. In this spiritual orchestra, the musical instruments are the creations in the natural world, of land, sea and sky. The Craftsman who made these instruments is the Creator Himself, who also composed the melody that they should play. The different musical notes are the different lessons of the Torah, each of which can be played by a specific creation.
