"Ven Gran Espiritu, abre el camino..." Come, Great Spirit, open the way.
A journey of invocation, welcoming the Divine and acknowledging our divine nature, grounding and anchoring us in joyful Presence.
lyrics
Journey south to travel high
Where Andean mountains kiss the sky
I met a woman made of love alone and
She laid her manta on the ground
And offered up a sacred sound
And this is what I heard her sing to no one
Ven gran espiritu, abre el camino...
Aho gran espiritu, afuera y adentro...
A condor soared out of the clouds
And glided down to touch the ground
The woman stared into its eyes
No fear there
She said "Please take these seeds of peace
And scatter them from west to east
The time has come to unify these lands here."
Ven gran espiritu, abre el camino
A la tierra de milagros
Ven gran espiritu, abre el camino
A la casa del sol
Aho gran espiritu, afuera y adentro
Abriendo corazones
Aho gran espiritu, afuera y adentro
Ong namo guru dev namo
Pajaro, pajaro, pajarillo
Vuela, vuela con amor
Pajaro, pajaro, pajarillo
Carry these prayers into the skies
Pajaro, pajaro, pajarillo
Vuela, vuela con amor
Pajaro, pajaro, pajarillo
Carry us up into the skies
Seeing through the eyes of the Most High...

The rhythmic beats, and trance airy tune mixed with exotic vocals...this music is intense, passionate, and deeply resonates with the soul. Beyond beautiful... kristymarie85

This is probably my favourite ever album. I have been struggling a lot with anxiety, and this is just the purest healing music I have ever felt. Singing along with it is pure medicine. Fell so blessed to have found this beautiful magical music. <3 darkmoondreamer
