Munene, the journey...

Star-born and born of star light Born, yet unborn Living, yet not living Dying, yet infinite Seeing, yet unseen The subject and the object as ONE A soul, indescribable and indestructible A spark and ray of eternal consciousness The night and day as ONE The past and future as NOW Part human and part ALL A spark of infinity light Risen and rising still Knowing and yet unknown Been and being still A beginning without an end Transcending us while being us The master and the pupil, yet ONE The story, telling itself The drum, beating itself The wind, blowing itself The human soul

This journey called life is both sweet and sad. Days are lonely and dark and cold, at the same time cheery and rich and beautiful. It is a paradox that we struggle with daily, faltering and then getting up and marching on. Music makes the journey more bearable. In that instance when you hear a song that connects you to the infinite, in a way you cannot explain, you transcend your petty grievances against your lover, forget your self-pity. This is one of the greatest gifts from the universe, ability to return to our Source even when we do not understand the words being sung. I do not understand what these two songs say, but they are transcendent.
