R. Carlos Nakai & Nawang Khechog "Compassion"

"So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and Demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and Its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, Even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and Bow to none. When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the food and For the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, The fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and nothing, For abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts Are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes They weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again In a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home." Tecumseh

I am not sure whether R. Nakai or Nawang Khechog, the superb former Buddhist monk is playing flute but

the result is compelling, inspirational

and healing.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for the Tecumseh quote. I needed to read that right now. I was on my favorite site with Flute music playing as I read. The things some will post merely for shock value!!!

Going through some sad times & Nakai is helping relieve.

This piece is from "Winds of Devotion", by Nakai and Khechog. Hauntingly beautiful, imo.

When I was introduced to Carlos Nakai's beautiful, haunting melodies, I did not miss the opportunity to listen to him when he had a concert in Austin, Texas.

His music is just beautiful.
