ODEYAH

Water

https://lindseywise.bandcamp.com/track/butterfly-people

On the shores of a mystical ocean
There lies a cave with a magical door
All are welcome but those who enter
Never shall return not a single day more

Do you feel the rhythm of my heart beat
Beating in time with the drum in your hands
Fly away on the waves of the ocean
Seeking and finding the butterfly people

Gate Gate Para Gate
Parasam Gate Bodhi Soha

Here are a few translations for the Mantra/Heart Sutra:
*Gone, gone, gone beyond, gone altogether beyond. Oh what an awakening! All hail!
*Gone, gone, gone beyond altogether beyond, Awakening, fulfilled!
*Gone, gone, gone to the Other Shore, attained the Other Shore having never left.
*Gone, gone, totally gone, totally completely gone, enlightened, so be it.
*”Oh, you have done! You have done! You have completely crossed the margin. This is Enlightenment! Congratulations!”

Use the mantra of the Prajna Paramita to take you beyond. Let it take you to the other shore. Allow it to awaken you. Let it remind you of your becoming. Let it carry you away without your leaving.

~ Traditional song & Mantra ~

Butterfly People ~ Walk in Beauty *

"Blessed We are" - Peia 
peiasong.com

Capo 7
Dm - Am - C - G


 I recorded this version in a very tumultuous time, where again and again in a very short period, I had the feeling that the earth under my feet was taken away, and after receiving another blow of life, this song was carrying me like a ship on the ocean, reminding me with every sentence how precious life was, and bringing me back to the very essence of my being, beyond all the drama's that were unfolding simultaneously. Very grateful for Peia to birth this song and offer it as a light on our journeys. I recorded just a few hours after receiving the last 'unfortunate' news, diving as deep as i could in the essence of the lyrics, melody and allowing my voice to bring healing to myself in that moment.

It was my prayer in that moment - a prayer of gratitude, of going beyond, of returning to source, of stepping out of victimhood, and into self-responsibility, and self-love, no matter how challenging the situation might seem. 

Blessed We Are

°Blessed we are °    *PEIA*

With much love and gratitude I share this song of mine, a magical night time recording moment with a song that was unfinished and opened its beautiful wings and flew .....

Letra:
Aguila de oro que abre los cielos
Tejiendo un nuevo mundo

Condorcito que toca la cumbre de la  montana
Cuyos ojos invitan a todo

ay, mi taita yage... nai nai nai nai nai

curandero poderoso
 purificando, curando todo
guías amorosas cuidando.
esta restorando el equilibrio

Bri zumbador, pintando la selva con amor
Con colores del universo

ay, mi taita yage... nai nai nai nai nai

We Remember to pray to the water

Great Wisdom in our bodies, Great Love within our hearts, Great Peace within our Souls. A knowing in our bones, Forever guides us home.

Yana - Helen Knight

This song is a deep prayer for rain to reach all the forests around the world that have experienced devastating forest fires and are still experiencing them. A prayer for a cleansing, healing, and restoring rain...as much as necessary. Aguita bendita, llega a las tierras secas.
And so it is.
Aho. Haux Haux.

LYRICS:
Lai rara rai rai rai rai rai rai .....

Lluvia cae ante mi
Llega a la tierras secas 2x

Curanos
Limpianos
Te pido lluvia

Sanacion
Alimentación
Te pido lluvia

Hay fuego dentro de mi
Hay fuego quemando la selva

El fuego es el grito desesperación
Ay agua calma ese fuego

Lluvia cae ante mi!
Te pido te rezo agüita
Lluvia cae ante mi
Aguita sana la floresta

Lai rara rai rai rai rai rai rai .....

Lluvia cae ante mi
Llega a las tierras secas 2x
