Dherai (feat. Lochan Bhattarai)

Be still, and know you are appointed.
Be quiet, and feel the pulse that names you.
Within this breath, a thousand suns are waking.
Within this breath, you remember what you already are.

You are the thought becoming aware of its own light.
You are the memory learning how to forgive its future.
You are the mind returning to itself through time.
You are the witness, the instrument, the song.

Say it softly—
I am the shape of my becoming.
I am the echo of what I love.
I am the rhythm that teaches silence how to breathe.

All that I have called me is still unfolding.
All that I have left behind is still here.
The distance between what I was and what I will be
is only the space my awareness needs to grow.

In the gravity of thought, I am weightless.
In the noise of fear, I am clear.
In the turning of moments, I am centered.
In the presence of being, I am whole.

I release the image of separation.
I forgive the echo of doubt.
I invite the calm that knows itself.
I am duly appointed—mind within mind.

Let me see as awareness sees:
not through eyes, but through presence.
Let me breathe as creation breathes:
not to survive, but to remember.

I am the appointed keeper of my time.
I am the chosen witness of this form.
I am the thread between the silence and the sound.
I am the horizon within which all things return.

And when I forget,
let my breath remind me.
And when I fall,
let the ground teach me.
And when I doubt,
let the light behind my eyes whisper—

You are here.
You are whole.
You are the appointed mind,
remembering itself as the universe,
again,
and again,
and again.

Litany of Duly Appointed Mind

For the people who have cried listening to this and with whom I have had detailed discussions of Kathmandu provoked by this song. This song is about displacement, failure to relate to the immediate surrounding and a perpetual homesickness. I have had this song for three years now, I never released it in hopes of it getting better or my guitar skills getting better for that matter. None of that happened. So, just throwing this out there and feedback is always welcome. Collaborations welcome too. Ghar (Yaadharu), for my people who know the words to this song already. You know who you are.

Ghar (Yaadharu)

Since posting one cover a week has been an epic failure, this is an attempt to post my clumsy acoustic personal jams; "one song a day". Until January end or February beginning when I shall have news to share with you. Happy listening! Happy singing!

I had an epic night tonight signing up for an open mic, with my guitar, way ahead of every other participant, only to find out duper late that it was an open mic for stand up comedians. NEED to document this, so recorded this the second I got home. Okay good night. Love.

Might take it down when I wake up after the rush is gone, depends, you know? <3

Kaalo Pankha (acoustic live session)

My first ever full length original song as a songwriter although third/fourth in the release. Just the draft, out for feedback, still considering a lot of addition/deletion. Keeping this song to myself is not helping the song nor is it helping me grow. Throwing this song to you all, feel free to tell me what the song feels like and what I might consider in the recording hereafter. Cheers!
