"Precious Jewel (Buddha's Blues)" is a soulful fusion of Delta blues and contemporary folk, inspired by Buddhist teachings. The song narrates the spiritual journey of aged disciples who discover unexpected enlightenment. With its meditative yet bluesy atmosphere, it blends Western musical traditions with Eastern philosophical themes. Acoustic guitar, slide guitar, and harmonica create a rich soundscape, while a Tibetan singing bowl adds a unique spiritual dimension. The lyrics explore themes of lifelong learning, spiritual awakening, and finding hope in later life.

[Lyrics:]

Verse 1:
Old bones achin', sittin' at the master's feet
Thought I'd found my peace, my journey complete
But the Buddha's words, they shook my soul
Showed me a path I'd never known

Chorus:
Found a precious jewel, never knew I was searchin'
Enlightenment's fire, in my old heart burnin'
Oh Lord Buddha, you've opened my eyes
To a treasure I never thought to find

Verse 2:
Subhuti and Kasyapa, we thought we knew it all
Moggallana and Katyayana, we'd answered the call
But your wisdom, Lord, it struck us dumb
Showed us our journey's just begun

Chorus:
Found a precious jewel, never knew I was searchin'
Enlightenment's fire, in my old heart burnin'
Oh Lord Buddha, you've opened my eyes
To a treasure I never thought to find

[Instrumental]

Verse 2:
Subhuti and Kasyapa, we thought we knew it all
Moggallana and Katyayana, we'd answered the call
But your wisdom, Lord, it struck us dumb
Showed us our journey's just begun

Chorus:
Found a precious jewel, never knew I was searchin'
Enlightenment's fire, in my old heart burnin'
Oh Lord Buddha, you've opened my eyes
To a treasure I never thought to find

[Instrumental]

Bridge:
We're never too old, never too wise
To learn and to grow, to touch the sky
Age may bend us, but our spirits soar
When we open our hearts to something more

Verse 3:
So we bow our heads, join our hands in prayer
Gratitude fills us for the truth you share
This precious jewel, this priceless gift
Has given our old souls a mighty lift

Chorus:
Found a precious jewel, never knew I was searchin'
Enlightenment's fire, in my old heart burnin'
Oh Lord Buddha, you've opened my eyes
To a treasure I never thought to find

Outro:
Oh, this precious jewel, it shines so bright
Guiding us through the darkest night
Thank you, Buddha, for showing the way
To a brand new dawn, a brand new day

Precious Jewel (Buddha's Blues)

In this homily, Fr. Michael explores the recurring theme in the Gospel of Mark where Jesus often tells people not to reveal His miracles or identity too soon. He reflects on how Jesus gradually unveils His divinity throughout His ministry, culminating in the Transfiguration and ultimately the Crucifixion. Fr. Michael draws a parallel to how God reveals Himself to each of us over time, step by step, understanding that too much too soon could overwhelm us or lead us to reject Him. This homily invites us to trust in God’s timing and to be open to His gentle guidance in our lives.

18. What About The Thief On The Cross?

Look, He is coming soon! 2025-07-27

Join Edwin M. Cotto from the Advent Defense League as he delivers a powerful message on Christ's investigative judgment of the seven churches in Revelation. This compelling sermon explores how Jesus examines each church not to condemn, but to call believers to repentance and restoration. Through personal testimony and biblical exposition, Pastor Cotto reveals how God's investigation serves to identify and remove the "elephants in the room" - those persistent sins that separate us from Christ. Drawing from Revelation chapters 2-3 and Psalm 139, this message demonstrates that divine judgment begins with mercy, offering hope and transformation to lukewarm Christians. Learn why the churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia received no rebuke, while others were called to repent from false doctrines and spiritual compromise. This sermon challenges listeners to overcome besetting sins through daily communion with Christ, preparing for the New Jerusalem where only the purified will dwell. Perfect for Seventh-day Adventists and Christians seeking deeper spiritual growth and biblical understanding of end-time prophecy.
