NEW VIDEO: Steady as Stone LIVE at Bhakti Fest 2018

Sat Nam Friends,

I have some more awesome footage from Bhakti Fest to share with y'all. This one begins with a sweet sweet UKULELE SOLO! Yes, that's what I said. I honestly could not believe what an an amazing line-up of musicians I got for this festival. Chad Wilkins plays ukulele like no one I have ever heard.

This song is a trio of English mantras. Words that are meant to reprogram your brain to make you know your excellence and strength.

I hope we can effectively "brain wash" you. :-)

Joyfully,
Sirgun Kaur

Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo

Greetings,

I'm excited to share a little more footage from my Sacred Chant Concert at Bhakti Fest's 10th Anniversary. 

This one is of a mantra that many of you will know very well: "Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo." 

The translation I give in the video is the best one I've given so far. 

Ong = I focus my consciousness

Namo = I acknowledge, I bow

Guru Dev = the divine teacher within

So all together, it translates to something like: 

I now focus all of my awareness on the divine teacher within. I acknowledge this transformative energy that already exists within me. I bow to that POTENTIAL.

Within each living being (including every living cell) there is an innate intelligence. So often we ask other people to substitute that intelligence for us. This is called "seeking advice."

Quantum Physics tells us that our Universe is a hologram. We are all holograms. This means that the ENTIRE body of intelligence that is our Universe exists in exactly the same form in every single living thing on this planet. 

The degree to which we are "enlightened" is the degree to which we put ourselves in a place of allowing that intelligence to flow through us... as us. 

As you chant this mantra, make sure the ONG sound resounds through your forehead and nasal cavities. It will activate the frontal lobe, which is associated with learning, and our personality. Vibrate that area with awareness and you will make yourself available to all the intelligence that is already within you.

JOYfully,

Sirgun Kaur

Playing Total Surrender for Bhakti Fest's 10th Anniversary Celebration!

Sat Nam Friend,

I am back from a week in the California desert, celebrating the 10th Anniversary of Bhakti Fest. This is one of the pieces I played for my sacred chant concert on Friday, Sept. 14.

I was joined by Greg Barnett on bass, Clayton Campbell on percussion, Chad Wilkins on guitar, Candace Park on viola, Radharani on vocals, and Dharma Fears on vocals.

I was not expecting to get footage from this concert, so seeing this in my inbox upon my return was a very nice surprise indeed!

The mantras in this song are:

1. So paatisah(u) sahaa paatisahib Naanak rahan rajaaee
2. Ik ong kaar sat naam siree waaheguroo
3. Waaheguroo, waaheguroo, waaheguroo, waahe jio

They are not generally used together. They came to me in a dream when I was writing the music for -8. I loved the way they sounded together, especially the overlapping "waheguru" part. 

And thank you to Jake J. Thomas and Masood Ali Khan for your footage!

Joyfully,

Sirgun
