โMay all beings be happy โ
Mantra translation word by word:
๐๐ค๐ ๐๐ - location, realm, all universes existing now
๐๐๐ข๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ - the whole; the entire
๐๐ช๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐ค - centered in happiness and joy, free from suffering
๐ฝ๐๐๐ซ - the divine mood or state of unified existence
๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐ช - may it be so, it must be so
While this song is dedicated to the Earth, remember, you are a part of Her. The truth is, this song is dedicated to ๐๐๐. This song is dedicated to your journey discovering that very natural state of by transforming ourselves, we transform nature.
This might be cliche or even an annoying, redundant subject. But the type of happiness referred to here is different then the type of happiness typically associated with the word. I wouldnโt speak to this if I hadnโt accumulated a vast and diverse collection of experiences around it. And if I also hadnโt touched the depths of pain. This is the on-going theme of my entire existence. Iโve truly treated this life like one giant โfield studyโ, and could write an entire book about this, but for now just some food for thought:
Iโve traveled around the world and back, literally. And I can tell you that happiness, or lack of it, was not sourced from anything external. I have met some of the most โsuccessful peopleโ in the world, in the material sense, and yet, often they are addicted to drugs/alcohol or speak of a lack of fulfillment. We all have heard material success canโt buy us happiness. But still at the back of our mind we think, โIf I could just be like this, go there, create this, or have I will be happy...โ Iโve come from what we could call challenging โhumble beginningsโ yet still managed to be innocently positive. Later, life bestowed me many material wishes of the world--yet I collapsed in sorrow. Iโve felt the most awakening and bliss in my life sitting alone in silence for days after 7 years of various โfancyโ spiritual practice and technique.. all to discover, I just need to be still, and breathe?
So, what is true happiness then? Is it in that future utopia? Is it in โancient timesโ? That next million ๐ฐ? That next company milestone ๐ ? That shot of alcohol or psychedelic trip? Is it in that yet to be found soul mate? That past transcendental experience, or future Divine revelation? That chosen belief system? Is it found in the mind? The body? Where is it? Is it natural? Is it earned? How can we be, truly happy? This is a journey we all get to walkโฆ unfortunately the average person stumbles blindly through most of life until, one day, maybe, we get a glimpse of something deeperโฆ. not to mention the added layer of western spiritual materialism we have to learn to navigate, and discern from sincere spirituality.
The poetry in this song is an excerpt from a longer poem written by 16th-century Indian mystic and celebrated Bhakti saint:
โ๐๐ ๐ข๐ฎ ๐๐๐ก๐ค๐ซ๐๐, ๐ข๐๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐๐ก ๐๐ค๐ข๐๐ค๐ง๐ฉ ๐๐จ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐ก๐ก๐ช๐จ๐๐ค๐ฃ. ๐ผ๐จ ๐จ๐ค๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐จ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ฉ, ๐๐ฉ ๐๐ค๐๐จ. ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ค๐จ๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ง๐ช๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ก๐ ๐๐จ ๐ข๐ฎ ๐ง๐๐๐ช๐๐โฆ๐๐๐๐จ, ๐๐ฌ๐๐ก๐ก๐จ ๐๐ฃ ๐ค๐ช๐ง ๐๐๐๐ง๐ฉ.. ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐ช๐๐ก๐ก๐ฎ ๐จ๐๐๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐๐ค๐๐ ๐ค๐ ๐ ๐ค๐ฎโฆโ โ ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ฉ ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐๐
Three years ago I began sharing my offerings as โNikunjaโ on Earth Day. This year for Earth Day, I find it to be a good time to pray. Pray for all beingsโฆ I have been hopelessly horrified at the state of the world, and at the same time, optimistically see the beauty of our potential! One of the greatest services we can offer to Mother Earth is to remember what this true happiness means. This is inherent, and the source of pure Love from which we come. I call this source, this โindestructible refugeโ , God. You may call it something different. And thatโs ok! Because no matter ones belief, ones culture, ones way of life-- can we really deny that there is an intelligent design much greater then our individual self? An intelligent design weaving together all humans, trees, bees, and galaxies...? Wouldnโt it be of the greatest good to humble ourselves to that and to do our best to live in harmony with it? We donโt have to be perfect. Simply a sincere, reverent heart will take you further than you could ever imagine. I can testify to this.
Happy Earth Day beloveds ๐๐ May all beings be happy and free ๐๐พ
