VEIL OF MAYAIn Maya's gripIllusion transforms verity Perceiving thus A delusive world of duality
Veil of Maya Ahamkara...Veil of Maya
(lead: Jason)Illusion works, impenetrable Weaving webs innumerable Her gay pictures never fail Crowd each other veil on veil Maya subjects you
A charmer who will be believed
Veil of Maya Ahamkara...Veil of Maya
(lead: Paul)Maya subjects you Maya subjects you
A charmer who will be believed
(Paul is using his voice as an instrument but no words are being sung here)Veil of Maya Balance every joy with a grief Dual scales of Maya Earth's unending law of polarity
Veil of Maya Ahamkara...Veil of Maya
CELESTIAL VOYAGEAs I peeped into my mortal cup of mindA molten liquid of penance splashed my eyes
Unseen truth, a divine surgery
(lead: Paul)A celestial voyage To reach the shores and bathe In pools of divine nectar
(lead: Jason)My raft filled with delusive waste water To reach the shores Shall be drained by holes of wisdom And bathe in pools of divine
A celestial voyage
A celestial voyage
THE EAGLE NATURELearning, discerning, how to arrangeThinking the haze will just not clear Viewing, computing, our minds will stage A vehicle inside we feel... The eagle nature
Everchanging river flows high and low
For unfocused consciousness
A crystal goblet, so fragile and dear
Noting the fall of a sparrow
A crystal goblet, so fragile and dear
(lead: Paul)Earthly ambitions weigh their share The vastness of life, it does not care
SENTIMENTWon't youTry too Won't you
Cosmic mother, awaken us
Creative mother arouse us to know
Won't you
(lead: Jason)Creative mother arouse us to know Inspire us to build a new world Since forever we've yearned to Quench what's never fulfilling Lost endeavors found in a stilled Mind if we be willing
(In the previous verse, the first two lines are the main lines of the verse and are also the most audible ones. The last four lines are sung underneath the main two and at the same time thus creating a doubled vocal effect)Creative mother arouse us to know That we be not lost in the sands Open our eyes...
I'M BUT A WAVE TO...As one I'll meet the mortal memoriesReliving seeking silence And know that I as just a shell outside Have sacred joys inside me
No fear, nor fight
So I call on
(lead: Jason)Infinity within thy consciousness An ever expanding sphere Immortal spark ignites Spreads by the air of bliss Embracing warmth that heals
No fear, nor fight
(lead: Paul) (chorus) UROBORIC FORMSSelf is the universeNot separate The state before the fall into Self consciousness
Nothing is himself
Primordial egg retains
(lead: Jason)Find itself as a separate entity An ego germ is just beginning to be
Wherever there is other
(lead: Paul)Birth, primal paradise No gap, distance or separation Between self and environment Unconditional omnipotence
Nothing is himself
Primordial egg retains
TEXTURES(Instrumental)
(lead: Paul) (lead: Sean M.) HOW COULD IHow could I forget such a revelationTo love without fear and learn without question How could I regret the meant occasions I must begin this day again
Freedom and reason shine through How could I?
Humility take charge of me Freedom and reason shine through How could I?
Love too often is only a dream
(lead: Paul)Freedom and reason shine through Paddle upon the clouds one's own canoe
Love too often is only a dream
Love too often is only a dream
