Hi, I'm very happy to receive your comment, as this is one of my favourite pieces of music I ever created .. already 30 years ago ... and I get very few comments about it. Thank you for your discernment! 💛

@@adrianfreedmanmusic it's really a true peice of Art. Thank u for creating it. I danced butoh with it and it was absolutely fantastic. 💙🙏🏼

Thank you Amir. Happy to know this music of peace is being heard there with you 🕊️

Yes it is truly a place of inspiration. I've never been in an ancient monument site where I felt such amazing living energy and connection with Ancestors. Amazing history we discovered about the Mayans while we were there. Happy to hear this music is inspiring you 🕊️

💚💎💚

Thanks Raymond. A great daily practice! You might like this: From the teachings by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche "When you receive the blessing of the Medicine Buddha, and of buddhas and bodhisattvas in general, various unpleasant things-obstacles, sickness, demonic disturbances-will be pacified, and compassion, faith, devotion, insight, and so on will flourish and increase. In order to practice the descent of blessing most effectively, it is a good idea to focus the blessings on whatever is afflicting you most at that time. For example, if you are having a particular physical problem-an illness or some other physical problem-or a particular mental problem-a particular klesha, a particular type of stress, or particular worries-you can focus the absorption of the blessings of the buddhas and bodhisattvas on that. You can focus it on the removal of wrongdoing and obscurations in general, but focus it especially on what you regard as your greatest concern at the moment. For example, you may feel that you lack a specific quality: If you feel that you lack insight or you lack compassion or you lack faith, then think that the blessing serves to promote that quality that you feel you are most lacking. And feel that through the absorption of these blessings you actually become filled with that quality as though it were a substance that were actually filling your whole body. Those visualizations are for the usual, formal practice of the Medicine Buddha. In his book Mountain Dharma: Instructions for Retreat, Karma Chakme Rinpoche recommends the following visualization for the actual alleviation of sickness. You can visualize yourself as the Medicine Buddha, if you wish, but the main focus is to actually visualize a small form of the Medicine Buddha, no larger than four finger-widths in height, in the actual part of your body that is afflicted. So if it is an illness or pain in the head, visualize a small Medicine Buddha in the head; if it is in the hand, visualize a small Medicine Buddha in the hand; if it is in the foot, then visualize a small Medicine Buddha in the foot. Visualize the Medicine Buddha in that place, and think that from this small but vivid form of the Medicine Buddha rays of light are emitted. These rays of light are not simply light, which is dry, but liquid light having a quality of ambrosia. This luminous ambrosia or liquid light actually cleanses and removes the sickness and pain-whatever it is. You can do this not only for yourself, by visualizing the Medicine Buddha in the appropriate part of your own body, but you can do it for others as well by visualizing the Medicine Buddha in the appropriate part of their body or bodies. The radiation of rays of light of ambrosia and so on is the same. This can be applied not only to physical sickness but to mental problems as well. If you want to get rid of a particular type of anxiety or stress or depression or fear or any other kind of unpleasant mental experience, you can visualize the Medicine Buddha seated above the top of your head and think in the same way as before that luminous ambrosia or liquid light emerges from his body, filling your body and cleansing you of any problem, whatever it is. You might think that all of this sounds a bit childish, but in fact it actually works, and you will find that out if you try it." From “Introduction,” Medicine Buddha Teachings by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche.

Thanks Susannah, yes this song did come through very directly in the moment I received it. Like most of these medicine songs, the words come through first as a teaching for myself, and then I sing it and share it and the message finds other ears and other hearts to receive it. 💛

Thank you Fanny. yes I am so happy with this new collaboration with your daughter and her beautiful voice. 💛

Ah Thank you Frank, I really appreciate your comment and fell so happy to know the music touched you in this way 💛

Thank you for your comment. Actually I used to play cello as a child also - it's always been one of my favourite instruments, and this collaboration with Matthew was a very special moment for me. ✨

Thanks Stephen. Yes this project of bringing the Lotus Rising songs to life in this way is a great inspiration to me ✨

✨💛✨💛✨💛

Thank you my friend. I am very happy to hear your response. I also feel it came out well... I think one of my very favourite things of all the thousands of tracks I've recorded over the years.

Hi Nicola, yes I really loved playing the piano on this track. It was one of my first instruments and I don't play it enough! ✨💛✨💛

Thank you for listening and taking time to comment ❤

Thank you Adriane for your connection through the music ✨💛

Ese es el mejor tipo de comentario que podría esperar recibir. ¡Gracias! ✨💛

Thank you! ✨💛

ありがとうございます。あなたのコメントに本当に感謝しています。私は常に最高の音を目指していますが、それ以上に大切なのは感覚です。🌸

Thank you for your comment. I also played many instruments in my life, but I never found anything so special as the shakuhachi! 🌸

Hello Zahar, lovely to hear from you again. Yes Kyoto holds so manay deep and special memories. The time we shared with that amazing tribe of Gaijin and Japanesei friends n the 90s will never come back, but the memories grow richer with the passing of time 🌸

Haha ... glad you liked it! Ultrasonic! 🌸

Hi Caleb, thanks for your comment. Happy the music could tocuh you wherever you are. 🌸

Thank you. I deeply appreciate your comment. The shakuhachi has deep roots in Buddhist practice and has it's own specific repertoire from that world - my own music comes from a more universal place in my soul, but the essence of the Mayahana is a large part of this., and I fell happy that you could connect to it in this way 🌸

Hi Mary, good to connect with you through the music. I'm happy this track could land softly with you and bring you to a place of peace,. Much love 🌸

Yes, I would normally be a bit shy to just take out my flute and start playing it in a public pace in a way that everyone could hear, but that moment was just too special to let it pass by... it was a truly amazing atmosphere, and I'm so happy we took the initiative to film it and record the moment 🌸

Thank you for your beautiful comment. 🌸

Hi .. here you are: ||: Em G C Em :|| ||: D Em D Em :|| C Em C Em ✨💛

Thanks Stephen, I appreciate your comment. I also try to play Ro buki each day! The practice never ends! ✨

Thanks for your comment. I am so happy to know that this music can spread healing frequencies far and wide. ✨💛
