Dude is insane.
Through many of samsara’s births I hasten seeking, finding not the builder of this house - pain is birth again, again.
O builder of this house you’re seen, you shall not build a house again, all your beams have given away, rafters of the ridge decayed, mind to the unconditioned gone, exhaustion of craving has it reached.

Hi all,
For me, this song is about leaving things behind that, while once cherished, now must be let go of; which our chosen Path certainly requires us to do quite a bit.

When this is, that is.
From the arising of this comes the arising of that.
When this isn't, that isn't.
From the cessation of this comes the cessation of that.

Nice. I've seen videos of some of the shows that they did. It almost overload when those three are together.

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)

This is the most beautiful voice I've ever heard. It's worth to listen to it in a good sound system. RIP, Monserrat Figueras.

The "music" is an aural assault so caustic that it could probably wake the dead.
Just mute your speakers and just watch...

Interesting. I didn't know that was how she died.

TEARS IN HEAVEN
by yawares » Sat May 26, 2012 3:37 pm
Dear Members,
Have you ever heard the sad song TEARS IN HEAVEN, by Eric Clapton???
March 20, 1991.... four year old Conor Clapton, died on impact after a fall from the 53rd-story window of his mother's friend's New York City apartment, landing on the roof of an adjacent four-story building. The main sitting room had windows along one side that went from floor to ceiling, and they could be tilted open for cleaning. On this morning the janitor was cleaning the windows and had temporarily left them open. Conor was racing about the apartment playing a game of hide-and-seek with his nanny, and while Lori was distracted by the janitor's warning her about the danger, he simply ran into the room and straight out the window. He then fell 49 floors before landing on the roof of an adjacent four-story building.
Clapton's grief was expressed in the song "Tears in Heaven''.
Written for his son
