Between the Life that We Live and the One that we Pray For

I live on a catamaran that we sail throughout the Hawaiian Islands.

The photos I took with my Canon 5D mark3 with a 28 to 300mm lens.

These breaking waves are literally less than 25 yards from our anchored boat in Lanai

We were sailing on the west side of Lanai.

I used to have a professional recording studio and have been a life long musician.

These daze…

there’s no gigs to be had, but I rather prefer to just jam to the ambiance of nature.

Here I just set up two basic mics, one pointed towards the guitar, the other towards the voice.

The wind was blowing and the seas were a wee bit lumpy…

But please enjoy my musical offering. “Between” was written by ‘Satsang’,

a very spiritual young band fronted by a dude that went through a lot of challenges…

“almost lost hope, but he didn’t, had to learn things the hard way,

how to cope with the mission, sometimes it seemed so far away ….”

This song calls to the struggles and challenges everyone of us face each day.

Sometimes just getting out of bed is more than some of us can be inspired to do.

But we do, and we roll through our days…

Each morning meditation, I recite my ‘Sankalpa’…

May all beings be happy… including me.

May I abide in the boundless space of my True nature,

that allows all beings and situations to be as they are without effecting my equanimity.

Allow this ‘abidance’, to help me feel the glow of Divine Inspiration

radiate from the ground of my being,

through my heart center and permeate my whole being…

So I can become fully Enlightened to my True nature and fulfilling creativeness.

Allow this radiance to radiate outward in every action I take

to be a beacon of inspiration to all others in ever expanding circles of embrace.

Peace, Peace, Peace.
