Yes I do, Or I wouldn't put it on the board. I am trying to be as honest as I can. But I realize that is not enough sometimes. I could be not seeing the right path even though I am trying to keep to Buddha's path. I am always verifying and re verifying. and doing my best not to mislead anyone. These are things I have verified. See my point is all I ask. If it doesn't help just let it be a crazy American form Hawaii battling the illusion.
@Namada that song by Nina Simoan is unbelievable. I have listened maybe 10 times today.
The experience conveyed was similar to the experience in a mental hospital. You have nothing just your gown and you eyes and your mouth and ears and hair and smile etc.
I tossed a poem to the sea
that took with it my questions and my voice
Like a slow ship it got lost in the spray
I asked it not to return
without having seen the open sea
and in dreams telling me of its visions.
Even if it didn't return
I would know if it arrived.
Travel the whole life
on the blue calm or foundering in storms
little matters the way if some port awaits
I waited so long for the message
that I forgot to return to the sea
and thus I lost the poem
I cried to the heavens all my rancor
I finally found it written in the sand
like a prayer
That's a nice version for sure nirvana, but why did you have to take a swipe at the great Eric Clapton in your introduction?
Kinda spoiled it a bit for me.
No disrespect intended, @robot! But how can an electric guitar gently weep? It just ruins it by overdoing it, and all the poetry just shoos away.
Moreover, the version I cited is very hard to find nowadays unless you use YouTube to mp3.
Can you find it in your heart to forgive me just this once? I'll not say another word against our iconic Eric Clapton, whom all the world doth love.
Here's one of my favorites, about Kindness beating out the meanness ("blindness") of the "Narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets," by Glen Campbell:
Melanie sang the first day of Woodstock back in 1969. Ruth Buzzi's character (depicted at first sitting on a park bench) was a favorite in Rowan and Martin's Laugh-Inway back when. This is a very whimsical video for us old-timer Americans. Also funny, about Ruth Buzzi's character that she played always physically fending off the advances of a dirty old man on a park bench... they seem to get along here all right, though. LOL.

This is a wonderful aria, although I have not had the time to see the whole opera yet, it speaks to me. I am very ambitious and this wonderful performance always humbles me, I see how my ambitions can go horribly wrong. I encourage everyone to have a listen and read the lyrics onscreen.
Sorry guys have not been following this thread. Don't listen to much music. Often very emotionally attached like Opera (for or against or only at rugby scrubs) . . . oh well something a little emotionally gentler than Pavarotti for now . . .

federicaSeeker of the clear blue sky...Its better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak out and remove all doubtModerator

I think this song is beautiful.
Bruce Cockburn is Christian as you can tell by the lyrics.

glad you liked the song
its a very catchy, and honest song I think. This song also remind me of impermanence, we have actually nothing?

This version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps is not ruined by Eric Clapton's Electric Guitar. It's pristine...

A golden oldie:
This lifts me when I feel like crap.... been playin' this quite a bit lately.... Can't stop "Rarrrr!" when I listen...

Wow! That's a pretty elaborate set to wheel out onto a football field.

This is probably one of the most used songs in recent movies. It still has magic in it:
