“DESIRE”- (by Rumi)
A Lover knows only humility,
He has no choice.
He steals into your alley at night,
He has no choice.
He longs to kiss every lock of your hair,
Don’t fret,
He has no choice.
In his frenzied Love for you,
He longs to break the chains of his imprisonment,
He has no choice.

A Lover asked his Beloved,
“Do you Love yourself more than you Love me?”
Beloved replied:
“I have died to myself and I live for you,
I’ve disappeared from myself and my attributes,
I am present only for you.
I’ve  forgotten all my learnings,
But from knowing you I have become a scholar.
I have lost all my strength,
But from your power I am able.
I Love Myself,
I Love You.
I Love You,
I Love Myself.”

I am your Lover,
Come to my side,
I will open the gate to your Love.
Come settle with me,
Let us be neighbors in the Stars.
You have been hiding so long,
Endlessly drifting in the Sea of my Love.
Even so, you have always been connected to me.
Concealed, revealed, in the norm, in the un-manifest.
I am Life itself.
You have been a prisoner of a little pond,
I am the Ocean and it’s turbulent flood.
Come merge with me.
Leave this world of ignorance
Be with me,
I will open the gate to your Love.

I Desire you more than food or drink.
My body, my senses, my Mind,
Hunger for your taste.
I can sense your presence in my Heart.
Although you belong to all the world,
I wait in Silent Passion,
For one gesture, one glance from You.

Sufi Music I Rumi Poetry - HU - The Zikr By Anandmurti Gurumaa (New)  Sufi Zikr Meditation

This musical experience somehow naturally occurred during my travels all over the planet in 2012 while feeling the call to "stretch" and extent already existing songs, improvising with the intensity of sound as well as "letting the strings tell stories...“ 

During enormous amounts of sessions, which range from 1 hour to 5 hours I've seen and felt an incredible magic … it didn't matter where this experience took place. It has always been like a miracle. 

A transformation of thought into eternal smiling silence - at meditation festivals, yoga retreats, street festivals, concerts, mental institutes, elderly houses, small house gatherings and huge parties. 

I’m doing my best to stay with "this energy" no matter what surroundings are there, holding the space for those around to achieve a "flying experience" - at times it is very challenging yet always beneficial. 

I still have no idea what I do during these sessions, as it seems indeed, just holding a guitar, as it becomes much more than music - and its not about the music - and surely its not about me - but all that is involved in the process - either visible or invisible. 
Within this recording I tried to keep the original energy. 
Though surely it is never the same as it could be experienced Live! 
With all love ♥
