I have discovered a luminous place
Of pure awareness and unbroken faith
Where the truth I see is living in me
As an angelic grace behind time and space
For in my mind, I can now rise above
The pain and the darkness
And turn it into love,
Turn it into love
Gate Gate • Para Gate
Parasam Gate • Bodhi Svaha
Translation:
This mantra from the Prajna Paramita (classic Buddhist scripture)
is referred to as the "The Heart Sutra"
Here is one translation of many: "Going, going, going on beyond, always going on beyond, always becoming Buddha."

These songs were recorded from their 2016 west coast spring tour. It is a compilation of the best songs from 5 different shows and correlates with a live DVD/BluRay release of these performances. Sonically stunning, the recordings capture the ecstatic energy that this group consistently delivers. It also features the spacious opening for sweet devotion that pours through these two. And absolute must have for those lovers of chant, heart songs and healing connection with the divine.
"What a gift these live albums are.. with the musical engineering supporting the energy and spirit! These selections evoke strong memories of group celebration and are truly life-affirming. I am listening to these at the end of a 7 day retreat filled with very hard spiritual work. So much appreciated. Namaste..." Marc Worthington (Fan)
