RETURN FROM HELSINKI - Album Preview Jan 2024

I wasn't certain what to title this track. Then as I was recording it, a stink bug crawled onto my computer (who is the being of which I said "Om Namah Shivaya" to at the end of the recording). So I thought I'd title it for this insect. While they do stink, "stink bug" doesn't seem to be the nicest name for this beetle. So I titled it "Geometric Master of Walking Meditation", since to me they look like some sort of abstract geometric African art, and they walk in a slow manner that appears reminiscent of walking meditation. I wasn't certain if I would definitely title it this, but then it flew up and landed on a photo of Thich Nhat Hanh doing a walking meditation in a lotus flower garden, which made me feel certain that I should indeed stick with this title.

Instruments:
tenor guitar, flutes, tin whistle, tingsha bell, triangle
