if you missed this event...
you can listen to it here:

(this is a big file!!)

In a Special Pre Recorded Interview, Join DJ Yorkie and Ena Vie Friday 27th November 2pm EST, 7pm UK time. Featuring tracks from her wonderful Album "From Within"

Singer/songwriter, poet, guitarist, artist and nomad, ena’s message and presence is powerfully evocative. born and raised in laguna beach, california, ena was infused with a deep connection to the elements which she seamlessly weaves throughout her music, art and life.

finding inspiration in cultures, traditions, poetry, music, ceremony, the landscape of this planet along with the wisdom of the elders and their medicine, ena dances through life with her feet on the ground and her face to the sun, moon and stars.

A mystical storyteller, ena’s lyrics are introspective and experiential while simultaneously reflecting the freedom, joy and love in all of us. ena’s music and presence exudes this as well. traveling and living in many countries, ena has performed in a variety of bands and genres. her music expresses this mosaic of influences ranging from rock, blues, pop and folk to indigenous beats and traditional chants.

On Friday 27th DJ Yorkie and Ena will be exploring the life of this facsinating and wonderful Singer/Songwriter and on the week leading upto the broadcast of this interview, DJ Yorkie will be playing excerpts from her fantastic Album.

kissed...by the burden of bliss



kissed...

a song i wrote about what it feels like when nothing else can compare to being fully enraptured by the state of being in bliss...
touching these states of joy and beauty and ecstasy is beyond words, and the mystics talk about it often, saying that once they taste the nectar of divine, there is nothing that can satisfy. the divine bliss pushes everything else to the side, so that who we really are, shines through...and the challenge is then to live life in the balance of the tension between the earth and the sky.

kissed

i’ve been kissed

by the burden of bliss

it's pressing down upon my soul

and pushing out remaining ego

i am bound to it

unwound by it

and following through

with a love-glow hue

i cannot resist

its burning grist

no man

no hand

or knock off will do

i’ve been kissed

by the burden of bliss

it's pressing down upon my soul

and pushing out remaining ego

bound for another

instrumental other

soul defying shiver

monumental quiver

bringing me home

to the great, great one

it’s beyond ideas

of right and wrong

i’ve been kissed

by the burden of bliss

it's pressing down upon my soul

and pushing out remaining ego

you apprehend me

in a way i cannot resist

your siren song

callin’ me out of the mist

you funk me like no other

burning me out of a twist

i am made whole

the deeper you go

i’ve been kissed

by the burden of bliss

it's pressing down upon my soul

and pushing out remaining ego

give it to me

give it to me…

give me that kiss

that burden of bliss

gratitude for life...




everyday is a gift...
our breath
bodies
hearts
passion
gifts
challenges
victories
each moment
arriving in our presence-
gracing us with life
another opportunity to be...
in all its forms.

noticing
is essential
to remembering
who we are in the cosmos
an integral part
in the collective
embodying this knowing
is wisdom
each cell alive to source
and living this understanding,
through action,
is being awake!

namaste-
i bow to the divine
in you and me
and all of life...

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them...JFK

niagra moon falls...

painting by pablo amaringo



i bathe my soul
in the waters of the moon
standing in her presence
i bow to her wisdom
listening to the call
that is
beyond what i see around me-
the comfort
the ease
the walls
that surround this heart
have begun to disintegrate
now ripening...deepening
going further into the place
of pain and rebirth
liminal space
the place in between
what was- is no longer numinous
what will be- is left to mystery
break me open!
through what appears to be an ending
may my heart shine wide and broad
pure and strong
as the darkness of the unknown
beckons me into its caverns...
leading me into the streams
of compassion and healing
oh lord of the underworld
goddess of the night
reveal my wounds and betrayals...
that i might trust...
and thus become this truth!
illuminate my strength
through your children, the stars
as they shower upon me
crying out...
"let go
let go
let go
of all that you see outside you!"
now the sun of self rises...out of the ashes
blossoming in the profound waters
flowing deeply, yet subtly
taking root in the mud of the mother
the new moon of my shadow
revealing the death of the other...
the stars sing as they shine
around me...
"the sun is up...the sky is blue...
it's beautiful...and so are you..."
