I HAVE FINALLY SEEN THE LIGHT WHICH OPENS MY HEART TO ALL OF THE LOVE THAT IS HERE TO GIVE, SHARE AND RECEIVE “I laugh when I hear the fish in The river is dying of thirst…” —Rumi I have finally seen the light— Which has been shining Inside of me for so long— The light which shows the way. The light which illuminates This mind and opens my heart To all of the love that is here for Me to give, share and receive That is flowing through my days In a river of grace and blessings. I have finally seen the light— Which has been calling me Night and day for most of my life, Like a full and radiant moon Revealing the path in the the dark, Always showing me the path I must follow everyday to fulfill The very purpose of this birth— The light that saved me when I have tripped and fallen, Whenever I got lost in the storm Of pain on the sea of suffering— The light which has led and Guided me at every twist and turn During all the lost and lonely years of Going through my dark night of the soul. I have finally seen the light— And now there will be no more Wasted years or tears of remorse As I move up into creating a new life Of living each moment left to me In the Divine’s eternal love and light.

A SPECIAL SONG FOR YOU from Chinmayan’s curated inspirational playlists
“GOVINDA” by George Harrison
This uplifting song is an ancient kirtan singing the praises of Krishna as a young man. This version is from an album that George Harrison produced and published of traditional chants being sung by the London ISKCON Temple choir that George helped found and sustain. It was a surprise hit all over the world, with this song topping number one on the charts for weeks.
This beautiful music video has a brilliant montage of photos of George Harrison’s spiritual journey, both while still a vital part of the Beatles and on his own…
The reprise chant’s lyric is:
“Govindam Adi Purusham Tam Aham Bhajani” so you can sing along…
Enjoy!
