Mahamritunjaya Mantra (Tryambakum) - Bodies of Rivers

Liebe ist, wenn du mich nach Hause bring

Verse 1
The fire fades but smoke remains,
Whispers carved in windowpanes.
Every promise turned to dust,
Every silence broke our trust.

Pre-Chorus
I walk the ruins of what we knew,
Ashes whisper back to you.

Chorus
Ashes and echoes, haunting me tonight,
Your voice is burning in the fading light.
Every shadow knows the truth we chose,
We’re nothing but ashes and echoes.

Verse 2
Empty halls where laughter bled,
Piano keys remember what we said.
Curtains fall on a hollow stage,
Ashes dancing on a page.

Bridge
Echoes rise where the fire died,
I still hear you on the other side.

Chorus
Ashes and echoes, haunting me tonight,
Your voice is burning in the fading light.
Every shadow knows the truth we chose,
We’re nothing but ashes and echoes.

Album: Srikalogy Kirtan Sessions - Reworked 

Release 8/21/15
 PreOrder here: https://srikalogy.bandcamp.com/album/kirtan-sessions-reworked

Kirtan Sessions was an album that I released in 2012. Weaving together the ancient with the NOW. Where kirtan and sacred mantra meets dub, hiphop, and reggae. Being the first real album that I ever came out with, it was a magical journey of sacred expression. Meanwhile getting to collaborate with MC's and musicians that I was associating closely with at the time. As time went on and my skills in production increased, I began to cringe when I listened to the mixing and mastering on the project. Which lead me to KIRTAN SESSIONS - REWORKED. 

   In this renewal, you may find that tracks have a whole new feel and taste to it. Some tracks ( like Hey Govinda and You Are The Lover) have been given a whole new beat structure and vibe. While others have just been touched up to make a cleaner more potent sound. Remastered... a bit remixed... fully reworked.

I hope you enjoy these healing sound vibrations laced with beats and bass. 
Feel free to share the band camp link and let the world know..

With Love

Om Purnamadah Purnamidam The Invocation from Sri Isopanishad is performed by Karanamrta Devi Dasi.

SRI ISOPANISAD
By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada:

INVOCATION

oṁ pūrṇam adaḥ pūrṇam idaṁ
pūrṇāt pūrṇam udacyate
pūrṇasya pūrṇam ādāya
pūrṇam evāvaśiṣyate

TRANSLATION

The Personality of Godhead is perfect and complete, and because He is completely perfect, all emanations from Him, such as this phenomenal world, are perfectly equipped as complete wholes. Whatever is produced of the Complete Whole is also complete in itself. Because He is the Complete Whole, even though so many complete units emanate from Him, He remains the complete balance.

A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

Om Purnamadah Purnamidam ~ Karanamrta Devi Dasi:

Gopi Gita by Krsna Dvaipayana Vyasa performed by Karanamrta Devi Dasi.

GOPI GITAM
by Krsna Dvaipayana Vyasa
14 verses of 17:

(1) The gopīs said: O beloved, Your birth in the land of Vraja has made it exceedingly glorious, and thus Indirā, the goddess of fortune, always resides here. It is only for Your sake that we, Your devoted servants, maintain our lives. We have been searching everywhere for You, so please show Yourself to us.>



(2) O Lord of love, in beauty Your glance excels the whorl of the finest, most perfectly formed lotus within the autumn pond. O bestower of benedictions, You are killing the maidservants who have given themselves to You freely, without any price. Isn't this murder?

(3) O greatest of personalities, You have repeatedly saved us from all kinds of danger from poisoned water, from the terrible man-eater Agha, from the great rains, from the wind demon, from the fiery thunderbolt of Indra, from the bull demon and from the son of Maya Dānava.

(4) You are not actually the son of the gopī Yaśodā, O friend, but rather the indwelling witness in the hearts of all embodied souls. Because Lord Brahmā prayed for You to come and protect the universe, You have now appeared in the Sātvata dynasty.

(5) O best of the Vṛṣṇis, Your lotuslike hand, which holds the hand of the goddess of fortune, grants fearlessness to those who approach Your feet out of fear of material existence. O lover, please place that wish-fulfilling lotus hand on our heads.

(6) O You who destroy the suffering of Vraja's people, O hero of all women, Your smile shatters the false pride of Your devotees. Please, dear friend, accept us as Your maidservants and show us Your beautiful lotus face.

(7) Your lotus feet destroy the past sins of all embodied souls who surrender to them. Those feet follow after the cows in the pastures and are the eternal abode of the goddess of fortune. Since You once put those feet on the hoods of the great serpent Kāliya, please place them upon our breasts and tear away the lust in our hearts.

(8) O lotus-eyed one, Your sweet voice and charming words, which attract the minds of the intelligent, are bewildering us more and more. Our dear hero, please revive Your maidservants with the nectar of Your lips.

(9) The nectar of Your words and the descriptions of Your activities are the life and soul of those suffering in this material world. These narrations, transmitted by learned sages, eradicate one's sinful reactions and bestow good fortune upon whoever hears them. These narrations are broadcast all over the world and are filled with spiritual power. Certainly those who spread the message of Godhead are most munificent.

(10) Your smiles, Your sweet, loving glances, the intimate pastimes and confidential talks we enjoyed with You all these are auspicious to meditate upon, and they touch our hearts. But at the same time, O deceiver, they very much agitate our minds.

(11) Dear master, dear lover, when You leave the cowherd village to herd the cows, our minds are disturbed with the thought that Your feet, more beautiful than a lotus, will be pricked by the spiked husks of grain and the rough grass and plants.

(12) At the end of the day You repeatedly show us Your lotus face, covered with dark blue locks ofhair and thickly powdered with dust. Thus, O hero, You arouse lusty desires in our minds.

(13) Your lotus feet, which are worshiped by Lord Brahmā, fulfill the desires of all who bow down to them. They are the ornament of the earth, they give the highest satisfaction, and in times of danger they are the appropriate object of meditation. O lover, O destroyer of anxiety, please put those lotus feet upon our breasts.

(14) O hero, kindly distribute to us the nectar of Your lips, which enhances conjugal pleasure and vanquishes grief. That nectar is thoroughly relished by Your vibrating flute and makes people forget any other attachment.

The prayer to the Spiritual Master "Sri Guru Carana Padma" (Guru Vandana) is performed by bhajan group Rasa.
The English translation of the song lyrics follow....

SRI GURU CARANA PADMA:
by Narottama Dasa Thakura:

1) The lotus feet of our spiritual master are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service. I bow to his lotus feet with great awe and reverence. By his grace one can cross the ocean of material suffering and obtain the mercy of Krsna.

2) My only wish is to have my consciousness purified by the words emanating from his lotus mouth. Attachment to his lotus feet is the perfection that fulfills all desires.

3) He opens my darkened eyes and fills my heart with transcendental knowledge. He is my Lord birth after birth. From him ecstatic prema emanates; by him ignorance is destroyed. The Vedic scriptures sing of his character.

4) Our spiritual master is the ocean of mercy, the friend of the poor, and the lord and master of the devotees. O Lokanatha Goswami! O master! Be merciful unto me. Give me the shade of your lotus feet. Your fame is spread all over the three worlds.

5) By making the dust of the Vaisnavas' feet the ornament of my body, ecstatic love comes.  Washing the Vaisnavas' lotus feet is my method of worship.  By always associating with the Vaisnavas, I shall overcome the darkness of ignorance.

6) O Srila Sanatana Gosvami and Srila Rupa Gosvami, who are two deep wells of the nectar of pure love, two personifications of the splendid nectar of the Divine Couple, and two desire trees by whose mercy the entire world is free from suffering, all glories to you!

7) In your books, you two great souls clearly described prema-bhakti.  You are reservoirs of the sweet nectar of the Divine Couple.  Hearing about you brings bliss to the heart. Their sweet mellows are my shelter.

8) You are fabulously wealthy, possessing ecstatic love for the youthful Divine Couple, a love more precious than gold purified in ten thousand flames.  O Rupa and Sanatana Gosvami, all glories to you!  I beg you, please give me in charity some of these jewel necklaces.

9) I shall eternally engage in the nine-fold process of devotional service, which is the essential message of Srimad-Bhagavatam, and I shall not worship the demigods.  O brother, I say to you: Devotional service is the most exalted kind of worship.

 10) Making the words of the guru, sadhus and sastras one with my heart, I constantly float and swim in the ocean of pure love.  I am different from the karmis and jnanis, who have no devotion for Krsna.  Narottama speaks the truth.
