Ashwini sadhguru

Kabir, in his mystical style of poetry, compares one's longing for the ultimate to the painful yet sweet longing of a bride - a bride who no longer finds her parents' home pleasing, who is not satisfied by all of its comforts, but now longs only for her beloved.

He goes on to describe how his Sadhguru is the only one who can show him the way and how this thirst can be quenched only from within.

Naiharwa, hum ka na bhaavai
The comfort of my parents' home is not enough for me anymore,

Hum ka na bhaavai,
It doesn’t please me.

naiharwa…..
My parents' home...

Sai ki nagari param ati sundar, ati sundar
The land of my beloved...a place so beautiful!

Jaha koi jaavai na aavai
The place that is beyond coming and going!

Chand suraj jaha pavan na pani
Where there is no moon, sun, air or water ...

Ko sandes pahunchavai
Who will take my message there?

Darad yaha sai ko sunaavai
Who will relay my pain to the beloved?

Bin sataguru aapano nahi koi
I have no one other than Sadhguru

Jo yaha raah batavai
The only one who can show me the way!

Keheta kabira suno bhai sadho
Says Kabir, listen O seeker

Sapane mein preetam aavai
The beloved will come to you, like in a dream...

Tapan yaha jiya ki bujhavai
And quench the thirst of your burning heart!

"Ek Nazar Dekha Tujhe" encapsulates a seeker's experience of catching a glimpse of his Guru for the very first time. On the occasion of Sadhguru's Enlightenment day, we offer this song in gratitude.

Tell us about your first experience of seeing your Guru in the comments.

While words have their intellectual appeal, instrumental music can sometimes create an openness that language cannot. Among the many instrumental pieces Sounds of Isha has created to manifest different ambiences, Madhyamavathi is one of the more beautiful ones. The name reflects the raga on which the song is based. 

We have also had the fortune of some part-time volunteers, who have contributed to our music. We could use this opportunity to say how Sounds of Isha is not just some small group of people in the ashram but consists of so many meditators all over India and the world, all contributing to the music and connected with the common bond of Sadhguru's Grace. 

The flute melody for this piece was composed by one of our meditators. He wanted to offer it to sadhguru and as we worked with it to create a song, we had the fortune of roping in a few more contributors from amongst our volunteers. The result is what you hear. 

We had no particular plan as to what ambience to manifest through this song. However, from our experience, we find that it can be soulful, meditative or relaxing–soothing and settling. 

Let us know how you experience it!

Adi Shankara emphasizes the importance of devotion for God as a means to spiritual development and to liberation from the cycle of birth and death. The prayer leaves one in no doubt that the renunciation of our egotistical differences and surrender to God makes for salvation. Many scholars hold that this composition encapsulates with both brevity and simplicity the substance of all Vedantic thought found in whatever other works that Adi Shankara wrote.

With some added music by Isha Waves for a beautiful meditation.

#Kabir's words have touched us all in many ways. Welcome this #NewYear #2016 with Sounds of Isha's rendition of his timeless poetry - Yugan Yugan Hum yogi.

Follow Sounds of Isha on facebook and @soundsofisha on twitter for regular updates.

O enlightened one, 
I have been a yogi
in age after age,
I neither come nor go,
I cannot be obliterated,
I revel in the primordial sound.
 
Everywhere around me,
I see only community,
Everywhere, only carnival,
I am in all, all are in me,
I am utterly alone.
 
I am the mystic, I the illumination
I am the wordless, I the speaker
I don human form, divine form,
Sometimes I sport the formless,
There is none but I  
Frolicking within myself.     
 
Kabir says, O wanderer,
All desire gone,
I dance within my own hut --
Spontaneous reveler
Stirred only by the winds
Of my own freedom.

Vitthala Salaho Swami | Purandara Dasa | ವಿಠ್ಠಲ ಸಲಹೋ ಸ್ವಾಮಿ | Alaap - Songs from Sadhguru's Darshan

Mystics have always used sound in ways far beyond the realm of mere entertainment - by breathing in an ethereal dimension into simple rustic sounds from life around to give us a taste of the beyond. A simple twang of the ektara often did what a thousand words could not do to touch people.

Sounds of Isha is Sadhguru's own home grown, anomalous group of 'musicians' - inspired by their deep yearning and sense of gratitude. Dabbling with and melting into their instruments, their work is a subtle fusion of the rich and diverse beings that they are. The group members are full-time volunteers with Isha Foundation, living a life of dedication and austerity; thus, their inspirational songs are usually created after a full day's activity, due to their passion and zest to share a different dimension of the foundation's work.

Their melodies are a fusion of music from different parts of the world - traversing effortlessly and seamlessly across boundaries and cultures. Whilst the music of these songs sooth our minds and the melodies enthrall us, the true potential of the songs is in their capability to instill in us an element of the eternal silence that touches the core of the human being. The performances of Sounds of Isha are set apart to deliver a potent and intoxicating ethereal concoction, transporting those who listen into subtler states of being - becoming the basis for inner exploration.
