Name: Ode to Gayatri
Duration: P00H07M49S
Description: In the beginning there is the Whole, then there's the split into "You" and "I". It is the very first suffering of separation in human experience. The darkness, fear and isolation are all part of the process of returning to the Light. This is a song to pray for Gyatri, the mother of the Vedas, to illuminate our mind and our heart, to shine light on our path back home.

In the beginning there is the Whole, then there's the split into "You" and "I". It is the very first suffering of separation in human experience. The darkness, fear and isolation are all part of the process of returning to the Light. This is a song to pray for Gyatri, the mother of the Vedas, to illuminate our mind and our heart, to shine light on our path back home.

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
