So many people ask about developing a daily inner work practice. This is a beautiful chant to include. What better way to start or end your day than naming and blessing each and every aspect of creation! May there be peace in earth, water, fire, and air, the sun, moon, and planet, in all living beings, in body, mind and heart. May that peace be everywhere and in everyone. Mangala is an adjective meaning auspicious, lucky, fortunate, etc. Thank you so much for posting the audio and words to the Mangalem chant.

Bharatavarsha - The Land of Gods and Sages:
If ever I go long periods of time without having listened to the music, I find that the music seeks me out. Which is kind of nice. This was a prayer that was recited in her school every morning! It is believed that the recitation of these verses brings peace. Translation: From ignorance, lead me to truth; From darkness, lead me to light; From death, lead me to immortality Om peace, peace, peace.
The visual element of Flags consisted predominantly of one long four and a half minute take of a single cord of Tibetan prayer flags strung across the kora path around the mountain peak of Ganden Buddhist Monastery, near Lhasa, Tibet. We wanted to work further with both the visual elements and compositional ideas of repeating looped phrases of sound and image in such a way that new combinations of sound and image emerge as the video progresses. A second image stream was added to the original version of Flags, and the 5 minute film repeated to a duration of 10 minutes. The second image stream is also a single take, this time of prayer flags strung on a flagpole at Namtso Lake, Tibet, and with a shorter duration of two minutes which is then reversed and repeated.
