Change of Heart My heart, it was broken. Now it’s broken open. These words I had longed to hear, until my heart had spoken. I’ve had a change, a change of heart, I’ve had a change, a change of heart A change of heart, it came over me. The touch of an unseen hand, gave me the strength I needed. In the quiet of night, to my heart, my will conceded. I’ve had a change, a change of heart I’ve had a change, a change of heart A change of heart, it came over me, it came over me. A pieced together identity, unraveled in a moment of truth. It was the love that you showed me that would see me through. I’ve had a change, a change of heart, I’ve had a change, a change of heart A change of heart, it came over me, it came over me, it came over me. 3. Jai Hanuman!

Stars A friend, you’d call a stranger, a mountain more like the wind, We crossed that fateful hour, and won’t be back again. As one, two crimson heartbeats steady as any hand could be Like clay held in your fingers, you made a lover out of me. I felt your eyes upon me and a stirring in my Soul I watched the current rise and tide turn for another shore… A river finds it’s ocean, the light brings darkness to its knees All that we’ve forgotten and all that we were meant to be… We are like stars, stars in the sky The darker this night, the brighter we will shine. On a distant highway, beyond where the horizon can be seen We gave back all we borrowed, to find our destiny. I felt your eyes upon me and a stirring in my Soul I watched the current rise and tide turn for another shore… A river finds it’s ocean, the light brings darkness to its knees All that we’ve forgotten and all that we were meant to be… We are like stars, stars in the sky The darker this night, the brighter we will shine. 9.

Gurudev refers to the highest truth and can reveal itself in many ways. When it is embodied within a person, that person is known as a great teacher or Guru and is often referred to as Gurudev. While chanting this mantra, it is important to reflect on how you connect and open to that truth. 2. Heartsong It’s time for healing, time to have faith. Time for living with trust in God’s Grace Time for releasing all the things that you fear Listen to your heart and tell me what you hear. Time for giving and time to believe. Time to reap harvest time to receive. There’s no time for wasting with happiness so near. Listen to your heart and tell me what you hear. On a journey of a lifetime Above the noises of the crowd In the throws of passion’s fire Can you reach the higher ground Oh can you feel it, isn’t it clear Listen to your heart, tell me what you hear. It’s time for kindness, compassion and care Time to take action be bold and unaware Time to move forward while your vision is clear Listen to your heart Tell me what you hear Amidst the cries for freedom On the wings of prayer For the hunger, the desire, to feed a soul lost in despair Oh can you feel it, isn’t it clear Listen to your heart and tell me what you hear. Listen to your heart and tell me what you hear. Gonna Listen to my Heart and tell you what I hear! My heart song sings love each other My heart sings see god in the other My heart song sings love each other See god in the other Be kind and live as one, live as one… 3.

Shiva is the truth of oneness behind the many forms. Om is the sacred or primordial sound that contains within it the creation, preservation and changing nature of the universe. The last line calls out to names of Shiva meaning, the Supreme Being resplendent with the marks of the radiant moon. 4.

Rama and Sita, the Divine masculine and feminine found themselves in each other.

Devi Narayani He Mata Ambe Mata Devi Narayani • Jai Jai Ma • Narayani Narayani Narayani Namostute This is a hymn to the Divine Mother in many aspects celebrating Her as the form from which all forms arise and dissolve; as the great abode of eternal peace and compassion. 10. Beautiful Soul How you have feared not knowing where you stand A blessings shared does not ask you for your power You called out to your God, you got on your knees and prayed For a reason that he came to you this way Hard to see that it’s worth its weight in gold Or even worth anything at all Do you know… You’re a beautiful Soul a beautiful Soul Do you know… You’re a beautiful Soul a beautiful Soul So much to bear swept away in holy waters Not knowing where this heart would find a home You reached for a hand and you made your presence known Seeking an answer how this time could slip away Hard to believe beyond a shadow of a doubt There’s beauty in suffering, the rise greater than the fall Do you know… You’re a beautiful Soul a beautiful Soul Do you know… You’re a beautiful Soul a beautiful Soul Do you know… You’re a beautiful Soul a beautiful Soul Om Namah Shivaya Namah Shivaya Shiva Om In this mantra we give praise to the Great being known as Shiva - that exists infinitely as all and intimately within each of us.

We can rejoice that we have a choice. To open up our eyes and see that all of God’s Love is on our side! Sita Rama Rama Ram … 5. MIRACLE OF LOVE Climb aboard this miracle of Love.

Be still and let your eyes move through me. Let go, meet me here. Shine on you’re the light of the world. Rejoice for who you really are. Come close and wrap your love around me. Let go, let’s disappear. The path that you and I have chosen. To be together and to set each other free. This bond remains unbroken for all eternity. Shine on you’re the light of my world. Rejoice for who you really are. Slow down and share this moment with me. Let go, be here. Here Here where the angels fly between us. Here Here where the sky divides to free us. Where the earth grows beneath us and the river flows to meet us. This road is so long and windy. The mountain so steep to climb. The burden that we both carry makes us weak, makes us tired. But there is nothing that I wouldn’t do for you. For this love that whispers in my ear. The song of our holy union so clear, I hear. Shine on you’re the light of my world. Reach out show me who you really are. Be still and let your eyes move through me. Let go, meet me here. Shine on you’re the light of the world. Rejoice for I know who you are. Come close and wrap your soul around me. Let go, let’s disappear. Shine on you’re the light of my world. Rise up and show me who you are. Slow down and share this moment with me. Let go, let’s disappear. 7. SOUL FREEDOM Chorus: Soul Freedom, it’s waiting for you & me. Soul Freedom, it’s infinite & it’s free. It won’t come with your paycheck, You can’t watch it on TV. It won’t be where you’re looking or with a PHD degree. It won’t come on your birthday, and won’t come by E mail. You can’t read it in a magazine and it’s definitely not for sale. Chorus. It won’t call you on your cell phone. It’s not in that brand new pair of pants. You can’t find it in a catalogue or in the trance of romance. You won’t catch it at the movies or rent it on DVD. Can’t eat it at your favorite restaurant and it’s not even in green tea. Chorus. It may not be in style or the flavor of the day. You can’t lick it off of an ice cream cone or drink it at that quaint café. You can’t wear it on your finger or cruise it down the street. You won’t hear it on that new CD though it will never miss a beat. Chorus. It won’t make you any thinner nor golden or tan. Won’t do nothin’ for your abdomen, won’t do nothin’ for your can. You can’t search it on the web or sleep with it in bed or wear it on your head or wait until your dead. Soul Freedom… 8. MYSTERY TO YOU I searched to find an answer. I struggled in every way I could. But I never found what I was looking for and I sensed that I never would. I don’t need to be the mystery in me. Go ahead and block my view, I’ll leave the mystery to you. I was once enslaved by judgment. I was held captive by my fear. But the words that you spoke how they comforted me. They were just the words I needed to hear. I don’t need to see the light inside of me. Just as long as it shines through, I’ll leave the mystery to you. I leave the mystery, I leave the mystery, I leave the mystery to you. I wondered how it could be this way. I tried to prove you wrong. But what I wanted and what was, they were two different things. I got tired of fighting with you for so long. I don’t need to agree with what is asked of me. I know this to be true, I leave the mystery to you! I don’t need to free the God inside of me. I have nothing left to do but leave the mystery to you. I leave the mystery, I leave the mystery, I leave the mystery to you. I let it go, I open up, I leave the mystery to you. Gopala Gopala Devakinandana Gopala…. 9. ONLY ME Let Go Let Go my weary friend. You can hold on, hold on, hold on to Me. There was once a choice and now it’s gone. Now it’s only, only, it’s only me. You have traveled far and wide and still you look for me? When I'm right here, so near and always will be. There was once a path but now it’s done. Now it’s only, only, it’s only me. Tide ebbs the tide flows. It comes and it goes. Rainfall, sunshine, it aint yours and it aint mine. You were once lost but now you know, that it’s only, only, it’s only me. You can punch holes, kick walls again and again. When I'm in you, in view, beside you, behind you. Once you felt like you were all alone. Once you thought that were on your own. Now It’s only, only, it’s only me. It’s only, only, it’s only me. 10. ONE GOD Jay Ambe Jagatambe Amba Bhavani Jay Ambe… One God, One Heart, One Love and so many ways. One God, One Heart, One Love yet such a complicated maze. How do we find a way out? Where do we find a key? How do we find the way back? Follow me. Into the ocean, back to the sea, Into the Oneness… One God, One Heart, One Love. Everyone agrees. One God, One Heart, One Love but nobody sees. How do we see with new eyes? Enter into a new day. Find something to believe in. Come this way. Into the clear light, back to the vast sky. Out of the darkness One God, One Heart, One Love. One God, One Heart, One Love… Jay Ambe Jagatambe Amba Bhavani Jay Ambe…
