6.	Samsara Sound 07:24	lyrics
Time… goes around Round and round Samsara sound Time… slows down Slow Breathe Breathe… to the sky Into the Earth Into her soul Breathe… breathe in Breathe out Breathe within Breathe in the pain, the fears, darkness and the tears [x2] Breathe out  your joy, your light, your love and the truth [x2] Truth spreads like a wildfire burning in the night What seems wrong might just be right Blinded by the shadows of time upon time Seeing through the veils of the emptiness of mind Find without seeking, and find without seeking And seek without finding, and seek without finding And know (grow) [Repeat]
7.	Vine of Your Soul 05:37	lyrics
I look upon the stars shining through the night I remember in the essence we are light I listen to the silence before words arise Feel the heart space open wide I see the depth of blue in the sky Reflecting your true nature in my eyes I smell the scent of forest, coming alive Feel the spirit of the sacred fire The fire of your soul Burning in eternity Be free. Create your destiny Stand up tall and sing aloud with thee [x2] I look upon the stars shining through the night I remember in the essence we are light I listen to the silence at the dawn of time Feel the heart space open wide I see the depth of blue in the sea Reminding me the truth, simply be I smell the scent of forest, my mother earth My home, my home, my home The Vine of your soul Guiding me, infinitely To love ourselves in harmony Live the truth and walk this path with thee [x2] [Repeat] The fire of your soul Burning in eternity Be free, create your destiny Stand up tall and sing aloud with thee Stand up tall and sing aloud with thee Live the truth and walk this path with thee
8.	Ode to Gayatri 07:49	lyrics
Om Bhur Bhuvah Swah Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat [x4] In the times of troubling confusion, Lost and tumble in broken connections, I am blinded by the shadows in my mind. May you shine the light like a prayer in the night [x2] Om Bhur Bhuvah Swah Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat [x2] Feel the pain from our separation, You and I, are the flames in fragmentation, Cold and lonely, isolated in my fear. May we love one another in truth and unity [x2] Om Bhur Bhuvah Swah Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat [x2] Arise from the dream world, souls transitions. Birth and death, wake and dream, cycling in action, We grow and learn, shining in our souls. May the source of light illuminate my heart and my mind [x2] Om Bhur Bhuvah Swah Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat [x2] May you shine the light like a prayer in the night May the source of light illuminate my heart and my mind Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat Dhiyo Yo nah Prachodayat
9.	Death My Friend (Padmasabhava song) 06:00	lyrics
From the burning ghats to the charnel grounds My sense of death is heaven bound From the burning ghats to the charnel grounds Om Ah Hum Vajra Guru Padme Siddhi Hum Om Ah Hum [x2] From the burning ghats to the charnel grounds My bones are scattered across the land From the burning ghats to the charnel grounds Om Ah Hum Vajra Guru Padme Siddhi Hum Om Ah Hum [x2] As the eagle flies across the sky Her talons stretch my heart to cry As the eagle flies across the sky Om Ah Hum Vajra Guru Padme Siddhi Hum Om Ah Hum [x3] Om Ah Hum Vajra Guru Padme Siddhi Hum Om Ah Hum [x6]
10.	Ista (the first mother) 06:15	lyrics
Hear the drums echoing in the trees. Feel the spark of the fire that we need To stay warm through the night and share our dreams That the trees grow strong and the rivers… Rivers runs free Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala heyawalaa wayala Wayala wayala heyawalaa wayala Hear the ancestors singing through the trees. Smell the rain, the mist, the cedar and the sea Where the masks of the raven and the thunderbird tell me To dance with the Earth and let her… Let her dance with me Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala heyawalaa wayala Wayala wayala heyawalaa wayala Hear the stories that are weaving through the trees. Trees that fill the land and help us to breathe In the air that gives us courage to believe That we are the Earth and she… She’ll always be free Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala wayala wayala Wayala wayala heyawalaa wayala Wayala wayala heyawalaa wayala
11.	Love is Always Here 07:00	lyrics
Floating through the clouds of magic and mysteries My body dissolves away from me Beyond the clouds the sun is shining over me The love we share is always here [x2] Moving though the tides, ride on the waves Willing to change, be brave In illusion we separate, but we will never be apart The seed is growing in your (our) heart [x2] Floating through the clouds of magic and mysteries My fear melts away from me Beyond the storm the sun is shining over me The song we sing is always here [x2] Moving though the tides, ride on the waves Willing to change, be brave In illusion we separate, but we will never be apart The seed is growing in your (our) heart [x2] Floating through the clouds of magic and mysteries My mind returns to home and peace Beyond the sun the stars are shining over me The truth we seek is always here [x2] Moving though the tides, ride on the waves Willing to change, be brave In illusion we separate, but we will never be apart The seed is growing in your (our) heart [x2]
12.	Go Where You've Never Been 04:56	lyrics
Let illusions which have built up around you crumble Let illusions which have built up around you crumble Dissolve all sense of self and Dissolve all sense of self and I Go where you’ve never been Go where you’ve never been And when you’ve got there And when you’ve got there go again [Repeat ad infinitum]

about

We are Sohan Ko and the band. Our wonderful musicians are Greg Higgs, Thomas Ford, Richard Bruce and Nella Banner. Based in the Kootenays, British Columbia, we have been writing and playing medicine songs for years. My family, the community and I believe that music is a powerful tool to facilitate healing and growth during this challenging time in our world. Music connects us all. It holds vast power, helping us to remember past events, to incite powerful emotions, to take us on a journey to a new territory, or even to sow seeds for spiritual transformation. We hope that by sharing our music, this is what our album will do. We believe that ‘Vine Of Your Soul’ has the ability to be used as a tool for reconnecting to our spirit and growing a deeper relationship with our true selves. This album is dedicated to our work to help people with addiction, trauma and spiritual transformation.
