"You Are The Sea" (Mantrasong Meditation 054)

A couple weeks ago I fell into a little hole of self-pity about my artistry. It’s something that tends to happen when I get all navel-gazey and started comparing myself to others. Small/egoic Ben started chanting mantras like “I’m small and insignificant”, “my voice doesn’t matter compared to everyone else’s”, “everyone else is succeeding but I’m failing”. You know how the BS festival goes. THE...
Long Lost Brother (Over The Rhine Cover)
Просмотров 12010 месяцев назад
The other day, I realized Over the Rhine’s “Ohio” record is turning 20 this month. If you’re unfamiliar with Over the Rhine, they are a husband/wife duo from Cincinnati - Karin Berquist and Linford Detwieler. Karin and Linford have been songwriting heroes of mine since the mid-90s, and their 2003 double-album, “Ohio,” will forever be a guiding example of sonic and lyrical cohesion. It’s a recor...

A Mantrasong Inspired by a Mushroom Hunt | "Oh Mycelia" | Mantrasong 053
Просмотров 97Год назад
The earth is teaching us how to live! This bizarre and beautiful network of vitality and communication beneath the forest floor known as the "mycelium network" holds great truths about our reality: We're all the same. We're connected. Our embrace of death and decay leads to life. Listen to "Oh Mycelia" (Mantrasong 053) on your favorite streaming service: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/benthomas/oh-m...
The Secret to Contentment Revealed by a Yellow Lab | “I Belong” | Mantrasong 052
Просмотров 1102 года назад
Mother Teresa once said that “if we have no peace it’s because we’ve forgotten that we belong to one another”. It’s something our hyper-individualized Western culture seems to struggle with. It’s something I personally struggle with. But the idea of belonging TO something is not a foreign concept to much of the more-than-human world surrounding us, including Roja, our 9-year-young Yellow Lab. D...

What is a Mantrasong? | The Story of an Intention-Based Song Experiment
Просмотров 4,2 тыс.2 года назад
Almost 3 years ago (on May 16, 2019 to be exact) I started writing and filming “Mantrasongs” - songs infused with intention - as a way for me to jumpstart my creativity, ground myself in some deep truths and create some changes in my life. Since then I’ve released over 50 (FIVE-ZERO!!!) of these songs via RUclips. Through the project I’ve met a ton of new friends, collaborated with a bunch of o...

You’ve had a spiritual awakening. So now what?!? As Bill W, the founder of AA found out, keeping it all for yourself isn’t the answer. Running around and taking all the spiritual experiences… seeking a new high from every podcast, book, and teacher… will always find you back where you started, and in some ways this chasing can be an addiction in an of itself. What Bill W found was he had to sha...

"The Voice Inside" - [Mantrasong Meditation 039] (A tribute to Shel Silverstein)
As a child I also had shame about singing - not in choir or singing other people's songs, but singing MY songs. I really couldn't imagine singing a song I had written, the thought was terrifying. That has changed for me since (probably as a side effect of some intense soul healing over the years) and it was healing for me to watch this. Yes, I can envision working with you; we'll be in touch 👌🙏👌
Wonderful cover! Nice and different while honoring the original.
Thank you! Glad you dig!
vulnerable. personal. universal. beautiful. helpful. thank you, thank you!
Thank you, friend!
'Promosm' 🍀
Great song! That was super powerful and beautiful.
Very beautiful, música, tu voz, las lyrics, el coro, felicidades desde Xalisco, Nayarit, Mexico
Man, Ben! This is so beautiful! Love the whole thing! Much love...!
Thanks bro! 🙏✌️
I love this song, Ben! Coming back for it again!
Super meaningful for me to hear!

And honestly it's a crazy weird synchronicity I found your channel because I am currently going through recovery from alcoholism, and other substances. I have now been sober for 37days 🥹❤️ I haven't been to a meeting for 4 days and I'm feeling quite lonely so this is such a cool gift from the universe to keep me in check ✅ Thankyou!!
I had the biggest release of pain following the honest guys showcase of your mantra song - from the bottom of heart, thankyou, I see you and acknowledge your beautiful work and keep uploading! 🌞✨🙏💜
Some amazing lyrics!🤗 thanks!
Thank you! 🙏
This speaks to me.❤️ I have it on a loop and just play it for hours. Thank you Ben. I was diagnosed with FND 3 years ago caused by trauma at the hands on my mother as a child. PTSD has caused my mental issues to come out in physical symptoms. I have not been able to get past any of it. This is just what I need!
Music and Experiences that remind you of why you're on the Planet! Brilliant! Love this!
THANKYOU SO MUCH!!!! I found you through the honest guys.You are on to something, my fiend! I could really feel my chest lightening up and the anxiety slowly loosening its grip.Mantras with music...especially guitar and your beautiful voice.....VERY POWERFUL! THANKYOU AGAIN.I subscribed and liked.
Thank you Annie! Love hearing all that and glad to hear the music is doing some healing for you. ✌🙏
"To love what is, is wonderful." Wonderful song. Wonderful video.
This mantra gives me so much comfort and inner peace 🙏🏻 thank you so so much ❤️

I wish I had your clarity. It's lovely to hear about all you are doing, all the best in your journey.
Thank you Catherine! Sometimes in the moment it feels more like “wandering” than “clarity” but stepping back I can feel the big picture coming into focus. Appreciative of your support!
Man so many great things in the works! Can’t wait to see this all play out!
Thanks man! Me too ;-) 🙏🎉🙏
I love your channel. I'd listen to your songs if they looped like the meditation & mantra videos if you did them. I enjoy your voice, vibes & music. Thank you.💜
Thank you! That's actually something I've considered. Right now my patrons get downloads of the songs but I'm considering ways to make looping versions of the songs more widely available. 🙏✌️🙏

Thank you so much for this. I am about to enter a positive transformation but I am very afraid. This song helped so much. I was finally am to cry and feel my fear. Wish my luck on my journey ❣️

Thank you, Susan, and welcome to my channel! 🙏✌
Man this whole series was GREAT! Love how you don't have to be in recovery to benefit from it.
Thanks man! Agreed... super meaningful and universal material to dive into!
So much wisdom in this man. I think this needs to be heard by everyone, not just those journeying through the 12 steps.
Thanks man! Couldn’t agree more ;-)
So good and needed. Enjoyed seeing some familiar faces.
Thanks Damian! ✌️🙏
Wow Ben, that was powerful and hauntingly beautiful. Going back to listen to your other ones. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Janis! Hope you are well. 🙏✌

Beautiful truth. The 12 steps are all found in the Bible ( Bill W. smart man I do believe God is the ultimate recovery plan! Thanks Ben.
Yes and thank you, Becky!
I’m actually on step five. No coincidence that this popped up while scrolling through. Nice song, too! Thank you (;
Thank you, Robert. Be well on your journey 🙏✌️
Loving the experience of engaging with these each week. They've challenged me to actually sit with the mantras and see how they might come to mind as each week unfolds. Loved this one! ✌🏼🤟🏼
Thanks man! Love that you're digging!
Oh man, another great one! These Mantrasongs are doing exactly as intended. Love ‘em! ✌🏼🤟🏼
Beautiful! Thank you Ben for this lovely mediation
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying them!
Oh man, this actually made me uncomfortable but was beautiful at the same time.🙏🏼✌🏼🤟🏼
My goal in life ;-)
I loved this! Really enjoyed hearing the cello as well as piano and loved the kids voices!
Thanks Kathy!
So cool to see the contrast between step 1 and step 2 of these mantra songs! Step 1 felt very reflective, connecting at a deeper inward place. Step 2 felt light and outward. Directed toward something divine and full of hope. Love these! Looking forward tot he rest of the journey! ✌🏼🤟🏼
🙏❤✌
