TheHealingPowerOfMusic LoveIsTheAnswer

Love Is The Answer - Natalie Taylor (DJKzas Remix)

This special episode features a precious recording of Thich Nhat Hanh which was previously thought lost. Dating from 2012, it documents an interview journalist Jo Confino conducted with the Zen master in Plum Village’s Toadskin Hut. (Though since remastered, be aware that some background noise remains.) 

The conversation covers a wide range of absorbing topics, from the environment, climate change, and civilizational collapse to consumerism, the simple life, 70 years of practicing mindfulness, new Buddhism, passing on, and sangha as continuation. 

The recording is introduced by Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and Jo Confino, who provide details about the context of the interview and the significance of certain places, people, and events which are mentioned.

“Thay is relaxed, insightful, open, and being Thay at his very best.”

Enjoy!

Love Is the Answer: An Interview with Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh | TWOII podcast | Episode #47

The man speaking in this call is Paul Le Saint. He identified himself as being on the Executive Team in the office of the president. 

When my mother and I stopped using AT&T I received a bill citing charges on her line that we both knew she was no longer using. Paul tells me there were three additional months and charges associated with that phone, but he ceased trying to access the bill citing they were "systematically unavailable."

How is that possible? Every other month is, including "half" of the last months bill. Right up until the day I stopped using it. Beyond that?

Crickets......

Melody House Vol 1

This song is dedicated to our oldest son and all those Individuals and families who have been challenged with mental health issues. It is real and so many of our youth are dealing with mental health on a daily basis. 
I want them to know that they are not alone. 
Love is always the answer. 
Together we can get through anything!

Never Give Up on You

This post might come across as ani-semitic, but I sure hope it doesn't. I am not a Christian Zionist, in other words, I have my doubts that the fate of the world depends largely on what takes place in Palestine and the Israeli State.

Not that those events don't effect the rest of the world. I just don't think they are cosmically relevant. I think that the way we treat our neighbors is of much greater import. And I want to be found to be always have stood with the downtrodden, the poor, the outcast, the sick, the imprisoned, immigrant. I believe this is what Jesus taught us. This is seeking first His kingdom.

333: My Stance On Christian Zionism

💙 Love Is the Answer 💙

Sometimes the world is full of restrictions, secrets, and fears... But there’s one thing that can’t be stopped – love. This song was born from the heart, from the deepest feelings of connection, hope, and the courage to be who we truly are.

We all deserve to find our light, our home, the one with whom we no longer need to wear masks. Because even if the world says "forbidden" – our love is the answer.

Share, comment, and let love be heard. ❤️🎶

It´s ALL About LOVE & ALWAYS WILL BE 2025!!!...by Monique Soul

Italian hard techno maestro Activator returns with a bang on Infamia Records with his latest sonic assault, “Love Is The Answer.” A name synonymous with relentless BPMs and razor-sharp production, Activator once again delivers a track that’s both punishing and unexpectedly euphoric.

“Love Is The Answer” isn’t just a hard techno banger—it’s a statement. In a genre that sometimes forgets its soul, Activator injects a moment of light into the darkness without losing intensity. A strong release for both the warehouse faithful and fans of intelligent aggression.

Brutal, beautiful, and unforgettable.

Love is the Answer (Menori Remix)

Led By Love (Modern Hymne)

The song reminds that good deeds and religious acts without genuine love are empty and fleeting, like "shadows, echoes, plowing water." True love is authentic, blind, and kind; without it, even calling on God's name won't lead to salvation, as motives matter. The phrase " ... plowing water" is often attributed to Robert Burns, an 18th Century Scottish poet.

From the time Brandon was born in Queens, New York until present, he has been surrounded by, studying and creating music. He was born into the music business, traveling the world with his entertainment family. Their travels took them to every state in the United States mainland, Europe, South America, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean Islands. Brandon studied music starting at a young age and by the time he was 10, he was playing drums, flute, singing and playing piano. In his teenage years, along with being an all-star football player, he continued with vocals, piano and apprenticing at Face Productions Studios in Las Vegas. Here he would learn the beginning of music production and composition in a digital environment that would set the stage for a life of creating music for film, television and recording artists.

After college at UNLV, Brandon and his brother Jason followed in their parents’ footsteps and formed the pop group, My Brother and Me. They toured the western states performing six nights a week, 45 weeks out of the year. This went on for three years until they started recording their first album at Paramount Studios in Hollywood and broke into the music scene in Los Angeles. It didn’t take long for Brandon to know that this was home for him.

Brandon has scored more than 50 films that can currently be seen on Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Starz, Hallmark Channel and more. Because of his background in writing and producing pop records, Brandon has developed the unique ability to combine orchestral and electronic music and utilize melodies in a way that connects the story to the audience. This experience also gave him the skills to write and produce original songs for soundtracks and has led him to projects such as producing records for Ashley Argota Torres (All American, The Fosters) and Amber Montana (Netflix series: Spirit, Nickelodeon’s The Haunted Hathaways).

Brandon’s love and passion for music can only be superseded by his love for his wife, daughter and two sons. Music has always been a true joy in his life, and being part of the team on a film or television production is truly a dream come true for him.

llandell, an independent artist from a small town, creates soulful music inspired by his life experience, recent journey toward a kidney transplant, and daily struggle to be authentic in how he lives out his Judeo-Christian faith. (Some days are better than others).  Because of his weakness, he acknowledges his need for the love and mercy of God.  llandell's raw, authentic lyrics, paired with his vocals and AI-curated backdrops spanning country to rock, amplify each song’s emotional narrative.  Seeking no monetary profit, llandell only hopes for listener feedback affirming his music’s positive impact. His aim is to give you encouragement, make you smile, brighter your day.

Biography
By way of introduction, I’m breaking away from writing everything in the third person...It’s my page, it’s about me, myself and I, so I’m writing this in the first person!

I first saw the light of day in Oberhausen (North Rhine-Westphalia) in November 1972! Like just about everyone, I went to nursery and then school. After that I started an apprenticeship as a painter and varnisher, which I successfully completed :-)
I’ve been living for some time now in the small and beautiful Saarland! It still amazes me that so many people don’t know the Saarland... Damned cheek ;-)

Now to the music.... what do I do and why do I make music?

I’ve loved listening to music since my childhood! I liked trawling through my uncle’s record collection and listened to music for hours on end. The songs and artists I liked listening to as I grew up included Pink Floyd, Chris de Burgh, Sailor and Kraftwerk - to name but a few.
Then came the 80s and the 90s! During the 90s I often went to clubs and through a DJ friend of mine I started off as an LJ (light jockey). I did that for almost 3 years, working in three clubs as an LJ. Then a DJ colleague asked me one time if I could stand in for him one evening as he’d suddenly got a toothache. I should add that I he’d always let me do some DJing at the start of the evening to kick the show off... So anyway, I said YES and quickly started sorting through my CDs. I also said I needed a Jack and Coke or two... just to calm my nerves, you understand :-)

So the evening started off, the punters came and the music started playing! All the same, I was still feeling pretty nervous, and the Jack and Coke wasn’t really helping much apart from giving me a headache within that first thrilling hour ;-) OK, so the first few hours went off really well... there was a track playing and I was looking desperately for the right sound to put on next... but I couldn’t find anything, so anyway, while I was rummaging through my CDs I’d forgotten all about the track that was still playing and was still searching under the decks for what CD to put on. Then the track came to a end and a sudden deathly hush filled the room! Everyone looked over to where the DJ should have been... where’d he gone to? :-) I emerged from under the desk and the only thing I could think of to say was “Shit!”. Even without a mike, the word resonated loud enough for everyone to hear and make them laugh out loud :-) That got me laughing too, so I just put some track or other on and the party was saved right to the end. In fact, everyone came over to thank me for such a great night!
I reckon you should be able to laugh at your own mistakes and not take things too seriously.... The main thing is to have fun and people feel that from the music you play!

Anything to do with music in some way involves emotions and feelings! But you shouldn’t just rely on your own, especially if you’re not feeling up to scratch and you end up playing... to put it bluntly... funeral music at a party ;-) So you should always have a bit of everything and then everything will fall into place – and anyway you can’t please all of the people all of the time!

Now to the main thing!

I’ve been on the road as a DJ now since 1995 and have already played several clubs here in the Saarland. Some of them don’t exist anymore. I’m currently working in Saarbrücken, which is also the capital city of the Saarland!
As far as musical directions are concerned, I’ve always played just about every genre; that’s also had a big influence on me, being open to many different styles of music.

My particular favourite is and remains... still inspired from back then by Kraftwerk and Depeche Mode... electronic music! I just find it neat that you can also combine this type of music with classical and simply hand-made music.

Back then I was greatly inspired by the likes of Nalin & Kane and Moby, and also our daddy Sven Väth along with many others!

The style I’m into these days is a mix of deep house, tech house, melodic tech(no) and minimal pop... Sometimes I no longer know myself what to call a given track or what particular box to put it in. There are so many categories and subcategories in the world of electro where I often wonder if the artists themselves know what category to put their own track into :-D

My motto: “Always stay in the groove” :-)

This podcast is recorded in my car as I drive to work. I do it this way so that I can work through ideas organically without the luxury of a Bible or any other books to fall back on. This way I know how I sound when I talk on these subjects and I can listen back to what I said and see the path and progression of my own theology and understanding of Jesus. I do not edit so as to keep discussions as raw and real as possible, although I do pause from time to time, like when I recently spilled my coffee or when I get a call.

IT'S A SPIRITUAL THING, A BODY THING, A SOUL THING...I love  Music... Music has the power to transform and uplift our SOULS. I deeply believe when music is shared with others and experienced in community this power is amplified.

That’s why I enjoy playing music and share it with the world. I love everyone to feel and experience the joy, happiness and flow I feel when I listen to Electronic Music ❤️.

From Ibiza to Bali, all the way through Miami, Tulum, London, Madrid I research and collect the best sounds in the electronic music scene curated and delivered to you through my sessions.

My profound desire is to uplift your SOUL and make you feel your best so you are empowered to live your life to the fullest...Music changed my life!... Let me touch yours with wonderful & emotional vibes!

without music 🎼, my life feels empty
