P.L.P. (PEACE, LOVE, PURITY)

Looking for something we don't have, every woman and man 
Looking something in the sands as it sifts through the hands
A knowledge to understand walk as humans in this land

P.L.P. what we dream what we strive to be
What I see in you I hope you see in me
A deep feeling we all need to feel free

Hope for justices a victim soul within our hearts we will hold
Giving up is not giving in when pictures can be seen within
Good trouble is the call today as we continue to pray

P.L.P. what comes from the heart to the eyes should never be a lie
Not an activity; it is feeling experiencing the giving without receiving
It is something deep that we are needing

An emotion used as a lie just for a momentary feeling 
A word used and abused for a momentary lie
Look deep inside connect with the eyes; this is true life.

P.L.P. what we look for is a clean slate removing that self-hate
Steady the mind invasion a white page floating in an ocean is your stage
A point of light in you shining bright; it is the life that is always new

The white sari transforming the sister into an instrument hear her sing.
The tune of the flute flowing through me, and you 
Feel the knowledge it has the directions to what to do

Peace is the dream we strive to be
Love is an emotion of giving without receiving
Purity is starting over; it is what is inside of you.

DANCE OF KNOWLEDGE

 
Deep inside the mind is a light
We have been searching for all our lives
Inside it has been there all the time

Dance of knowledge
Moves to the song of peace
The tune of justice we all need

Deep inside the mind, there is you, the soul.
Holding to the eternity of many lives
This journey is not a waste of time.

Dance of knowledge
Moves to the rhythm of purity
The tune of compassion every step light and free

Deep inside the mind, hear the message of life.
When we march, it is understanding we will find
Walking the path of happiness, we put the past behind.

Dance of knowledge 
Moves to the beat of love
Every step guided from above

REMEMBER THE SILENCE

Something is in the air some don't even care
The doors are locked the windows are closed
What does tomorrow hold

Sitting still as the sitar sounds
Hear the meditated reverberations all around
Now go inside and remember the silence

As the soul moves on as the love stays behind
Looking to the knowledge at this time
What does tomorrow hide

Sitting still as Ravi makes the sitar sing
Feel the meditated reverberations all around
Only inside we remember the silence

The days move by so slow not sure where to go
Some entranced by words of the uneducated mind
Praying for the resurrection of peace at this time

Sitting still as a lotus as the sitar rings
See the meditated reverberations of the soul
Everything you will find when you remember the silence
