Dedicated to the mysterious Muse ~
"The Great Beyond"

I saw your eyes they showed me your mind
I saw your mind it showed me your heart
I saw your heart it showed me your soul
I saw your soul it looked like a mirror
I looked into the mirror and I saw the great beyond
And in a moment “I” was gone, lost in communion

Where Have I Gone

*the "Mul Mantra", traditional Sikh Mantra
* Composition by Oren Selah -Guitar(s), flute, vocals
*3:00 minute sample, runs for 7 minutes in Sadhana practice

*From Yogi Bhaijan: "The Mul Mantra was given by Guru Nanak- a great yogi, healer. This mantra captures a complete philosophy and psychology of human potential in one compact phrase...It states that in the dimension of awareness, there is an existing perfection, and in the dimension of consciousness, a possible evolution.
One morning while doing his morning ritual in a river, Guru Nanak disappeared under the water for three days in an ecstatic trance of awakening. ..after this mystic state of realization he sat with his students and uttered this mantra. It was the first thing he said to capture the fullness of his vision of the human being and the Cosmos.."


Mul Mantra

*Wah Yantee - Also known as 'Patanjali's song

Wah Yantee

*Sat Siri Siri Akal Mantra
*

"It is said that when we are challenged in life there are three impulses we confront: One is to be alone/to withdraw, another to deny or fantasize about the future, another to live greedily or in scarcity instead of prosperously. This mantra is to help one overcome these tendencies and give courage and caliber. It is known for giving victory in all aspects of life"

Lyrics:
She who understands has arrived on the scene 
Scales of judgment on her back, her senses held keen
She flew in from the east with a rod of light in her hand
Explaining how she won it at her enemy’s last stand

Many battles I have fought many battles I have won
On the eve of the 13th moon it went down
The final battle the final triumph
In the end it made him just look like a clown

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

It began one night in my mother’s loneliness
Abused and abandoned not much light left
She toiled and toiled to bear the new life
Through rays of light she was blinded by strife

With the cyclone spinning in the barren wasteland
The skies parted the fire took stand
Even the trees bowed low in reverence and bliss
They had never seen someone as cryptic as this

With one dead and one born I came in as was warned
On an axis of light my mind took form
My body arose from the depths of this land
My heart will forever invincibly stand

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 
Well my name is Venus she finally explained
With a love in her eye that I had never seen
It humbled me, brought me down to my knees
It made me feel real it made me feel seen

Tell me dear lady from where do I know you
And how can it be that I miss you already
I miss you so much though our eyes have not met
Lord only knows what we have to see yet

And what kind of magic is this that you conjure
And what sort of spell have you cast over me
In a transitive nightfall my mind just wanders
As if in a dream sailing the surreal sea

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Venus dear Venus mysterious one
Please let me be your lover please let me be your friend
I vow to walk with you down that glorious road
Through thick and thin, till the bittersweet end

Venus - Take 2

*Rakhe Rakhanhar - Sikh mantra
*Sample, runs for 7 minutes in morning sadhana

*Yogi Bhajan said that this shabd would protect you from all negative forces, especially those which “move against one’s walk on the path of destiny, both inner and outer.”  It is a powerful vibration that cuts through opposing vibrations, words, thoughts and deeds.

  It is often called a victory song, one that does away with the obstacles to fulfilling your highest destiny.


Rakhe Rakhanhar

Oren S. - Lyrics, guitars, flute. 

 

And She knows what its like to feel so much
And she knows what its like to want so much

            
 she knows what its like to be walkin the fine line
  she knows what its like to be livin in spite of the time

               
  she wonders what its like to be free so free
  she wonders what its like to be nobody’s mystery
  she knows what its like to be livin’ in the painful serendipity
  she knows what its like to be drownin’ in the deep blue sea


  she knows what its like to be swallowed in the mouth of a whale
  she knows what its like to be caught in someone’s cryptic tale
  she knows what its like to be surrendered at the feet of the mystery
  she knows what its like to be cleansed of fatal perplexity


  she knows what its like to have to crawl out of the quicksand
  she knows what its like to have to wander the strangest lands
  she wonders what its like to be just like everyone else
  she knows what its like to be caught on the devils’ lapelle


  she knows what its like to sail the seven stormy seas
  she knows what its like to be caught on the coyote’s trapeze  
 she  knows what its like to be shredded by simplicity
  she knows what its like to be the queen of complexity


 she knows what its like to see so much
  she knows what its like to be so much
