INEVITABLE by Shakti Karlynn Howeth

This song was inspired by all of the teachings that uplift my heart…

 And all of the Beings who have shared theirs with me!  Music is a powerful medium for healing and change and I have always been interested in sound therapy as well as the pure joy of melody and vibration.

Since a song carves a groove in the mind, I am always looking for the right carving tools for mine.  Inspired by concepts such as "The Law of Attraction", "Ho'oponopono" and Mantra repetition I have created something that is both personal (and hopefully) Universal.  

This recording is something like a page out of my sketchbook in the sense that it will continue to evolve and improve, but I wanted to get the seed of it out as soon as possible for sharing and receiving energetic feedback.  I set my intention, performed a little ritual and made the recording at home.  Singing, guitar, two different drums and a tambourine later I had the components for "Inevitable".  (I decided to omit any digital samples from this track).  

The main message is that all good things are inevitable.  It may not be everyone's experience at this time, but I would like to hold space to manifest the vision of all of us feeling exactly what we want to feel.  Thank you for being a part of this musical conversation!

Inevitable

This is not a love spell

Not like other times when I chose to fall

I am on my feet now

And I am complete now

Grateful for the lessons I have earned

Grateful for the scars from which I’ve learned

This is not a love spell
Playing with Black Magic

In that Dark Night of the Soul

I saw
Infinite options 
Infinite paths

Infinite wonders

In it I asked

Infinite questions ravenously

Infinite answers permeate me

Shifting occurs and paradigms fall

Out of my heart the infinite call

Infinite Love and infinite Peace

Infinite Silence setting me free.

Standing on the brink now

Looking at the stars

Listening to the echo

Of your lyrics in my mind

Knowing we are leaving

All that time and space behind

Never need to miss you

Never need to feel apart again.

You helped me see the Truth in me

Within my name there is the Key

We’re all the same

We’re Energy

We’re all in Love with Everything

And all the Bliss we need to feel

And all the Love we need to heal

And every wish our Hearts have made

Our deepest dreams

Our Souls create.

It’s inevitable

It’s inevitable
 
Inevitable

It is

It’s inevitable

It’s inevitable

Inevitable

It is
Breathe in the Medicine

Breathe in the Change

Exhale Gratitude

Transmute the pain

Appreciate surprises

Delight in the strange

Open up to Magic everyday

Notice what is wonderful

Speak of what is Great

Amplify the Love

Releasing the hate

Let your Soul fly

Let your body dance

Listen to Your song

Now sing it take a chance

Yell if from the treetops

Whisper in the wind

Redefine “without”

And redefine “within”

Make up a new word

Hear a new sound

Laugh at a rule

Freedom Abounds.

It’s inevitable

It’s inevitable
 
Inevitable

It is

It’s inevitable

It’s inevitable
 
Inevitable

It is

I give thanks for this song

For this frequency passing through me

Wherever you came from

Wherever you’re going

I give thanks just for knowing You

I give thanks for this moment

I give thanks for Eternity

I give thanks I give thanks

I give thanks I give thanks

It’s inevitable

It’s inevitable
 
Inevitable

It is

Joy is inevitable

Peace is inevitable
Balance is Inevitable

It is
Truth is inevitable
Freedom is inevitable
Love is inevitable
It is.

IMAGINE A WOMAN by Patricia Lynn Reilly

  This poem invites you to look upon yourself with loving kindness… Gazing at your own true reflection, you will discover that everything you have longed for “out there” is already within you! I invite you to love your creativity fiercely. Faithfully plant seeds, allowing under-the-ground dormant seasons, nurturing your creative garden with love and gratitude. In the fullness of time, the green growing things thrust forth from the ground. It's a faithful, trustworthy process. AND it takes time and patience.  Blessed is the fruit of your creative womb! I invite you to trust your vision of the world and express it. With wonder and delight, paint a picture, create a dance, write a book, and make up a song. To give expression to your creative impulses is as natural as your breathing. Create in your own language, imagery, and movement. Follow no script. Do not be limited by the customary way things have been expressed. Your creative intuition is original. Ga...

STILL I RISE by Maya Angelou

Six years ago, I had the privilege of listening to Maya Angelou speak live on the value of poetry at the University of Florida. I share these reflections with you again today, in honor of her birthday.  I was relieved to get one of the last seats available for this rare event, having arrived at five for Maya Angelou ’s free speech at eight. The historically long line began with people settled into beach chairs in winter coats busying themselves on tablets, or eating sandwiches for dinner. As helicopters hovered above and newscasters below, I felt the excitement of realizing that thousands of people were gathering together to hear an eighty four year old black woman recite her poetry! Maya Angelou speaking at University of Florida on Feb. 27, 2013  When the curtain rose -after an overflow of hundreds were sent away- we lucky ones on the inside greeted Maya with a standing ovation, as she smiled sweetly, beginning her talk using metaphors from nature. Maya asked...

MIRABAI'S POETRY by Caitanya Dasi

Much of the mystic love poetry from India revolves around musical and theatrical expressions that portray the loving relationship between the soul and God… One such celebrated relationship was that between princess Mirabai and her divine beloved, Krishna. Born in the sixteenth century  into a noble Rajput family, Mirabai married into a family that did not take fondly to her devotion to God. Consequently, she went from royalty to mendicant, and decorated her spiritual path with poetic songs. I first heard of the great poet, Mirabai in the early 1970’s while I was living and studying bhakti yoga at the Hare Krishna temple in Los Angeles, California.  As I had a background in the performance arts Mirabai’s life instantly spoke to me. Her fusion of spiritual sentiments with song resonated with my passion for music, drama, dance, and the devotional path to loving God. In 1968 I serendipitously met a devotee by the name of Mirabai, who taught me that the perfectio...
