Welcome

Once while living at a Buddhist center in the country side of Normandy, France, I experienced what Tibetan Buddhists call "One Taste" - an experience in which everything around me, including people, were literally felt as parts of my own body - not metaphorically speaking but as in the most real, physical sense - everything was my very own flesh! Such revelatory occurrence shattered a monk-like orientation to life that was predominant in me by then. All of a sudden I felt like a child again, delighted with the miracle of creation in every little of its details, wondrous. Soon after the episode, an unheard melody, sung by children, begun resonating in my head once in a while. With time, I interpreted that some of those children were actually going to be my own. This song, led by that melody, became for me a hymn. Originally, a hymn of celebration of the best part of the tradition from which I got the instructions leading to such insight; but later on and most fundamentally, it became a hymn to life - a celebration of life as human beings, in and of itself, as the most beautiful of miracles. 

One Taste

A Peter Gabriel song.

Lyrics:

Thick cloud - steam rising
hissing stone on sweat lodge fire
Around me - buffalo robe
sage in bundle - run on skin

Outside - cold air
stand, wait for rising sun
Red paint - eagle feathers
coyote calling - it has begun

Something moving in
I taste it in my mouth and in my heart
It feels like dying - slow
letting go of life

Medicine man lead me up though town
Indian ground - so far down
Cut up land - each house - a pool
kids wearing water wings - drink in cool

Follow dry river bed
watch Scout and Guides make pow-wow signs
Past Geronimo's disco
Sit 'n' Bull steakhouse - white men dream


San Jacinto

Arreglo vocal a cuatro voces sobre una canción que escribí ("A mi Patrón") para la banda sonora del documental "Recuperadas".
