Just the perfect inspiration for my day (and yours!)

Here's something I'm happy to pass along.

A beautiful video made by the guys of Aradhna ~ filmed in lovely Varanasi, at the home of true friends, as well as spots around the city. Ahhhhh. Here is the translation for the song:

MUKTESHWAR by Aradhna. Verse lyrics by the late Anand Kumar. Blessed are the merciful for they will be shown mercy Praise the name of the God of Liberation! Sing my soul, Sing my soul Those who are poor in this world Blessed are they, blessed are they For the kingdom of heaven is theirs Blessed are they, blessed are they Praise the name of God of Salvation! Sing my soul, Sing my soul They who mourn in this world, will have peace The meek in this world, will rule Blessed are the merciful for they will be shown mercy Those whose hearts are pure in this world will see God Those who make peace will be called the children of God Praise, Praise, Praise, Praise Our Father, who is in Heaven Holy is your name Your kingdom come your will be done on earth as it is in heaven Praise the name of Mukteshwar Ji Praise the name of Yeshu Ji Sing my soul, Sing my soul

And NOW I watched the video. Beautiful! What did he write in the rice and water? Was it also "Blessed"? What did the ladies do with the petals they picked up?

Blessings,

Perfect inspiration for my day. Made me cry. Then I looked down to see Jonathan writing on the dry erase board with a highlighter. Ahh. But I am so touched by this song and video. Thanks for sharing.

So beautiful.....thank you. I stopped by because of all the nice things your friend Linda at Mamma Mia wrote about you and she was right. I am so happy I came for a visit.

Aha, so you do know of Aradhna. I remember passing you their link awhile back and wondering if you'd heard of them. I thought you would appreciate their lovely worship. Beautiful people they are.

The video is wonderful, I too wonder what is being written.
I wonder where Sandwhich heard of this music from. (whistling and rolling eyes)
