Shadows Over Orbit: Shadow and Light
Comment
Dear Open,
I would like to share my New EP of Solo Piano Songs. It's really a portrait of some of the inner feelings that Star Souls living on Planet Earth can find themselves working through. I'm hoping others in the Open Hand Family will be able to relate to it, hence my posting the link here: https://raisingthesoul.bandcamp.com/releases
Please feel free to listen for free and/ or support the EP. Music is one of my main ways to reach out and communicate with the world so I'd love to have others feedback.
I include the original EP description notes: I feel if I should share anything, I should share this. What does it feel like to be Human at this time? These Four Songs tell a story, a story of inner feelings towards Humanity, both in being one myself, and in sharing a planet with other humans. Through the story I hope you will find some beauty and hope, but be warned, for there is also the fire of anger and the despondency of hopelessness. Where are we going? What are we we doing? What's going on? Will we make it through to the other side?
Peace
Paul
Don't Dream it's Over - Crowded House
Comment
No walls between us...
Don't Dream It's Over and... Walls Come Tumbling Down!
In reply to Don't Dream it's Over - Crowded House by Open

I have always loved the sentiment in 'Don't Dream It's Over' - 'they come... to build a wall between us... we know they won't win'.
And to further this sentiment, 'Walls Come Tumbling Down' by The Style Council seems incredibly appropriate right now - a strong call to action for us all. I also love to dance around to their other hit, 'Shout to the Top' - really uplifting when you wake in a funk and need to dance around to shake yourself out of it!!
That's called keeping it real!

Real instruments, real voices, people coming together in the spirit of music and expressing what it is they want to express. It doesn't get much more authentic than that! And that's when you know Music has "Soul". Thanks for sharing, Clare.

Everybody Hurts Sometimes - masterful video
Comment
If you're feeling the understandable challenges of Lockdown at times, then know that you're not alone, and it's okay to hurt sometimes. Let's always honour our feelings. That way we can move quickly through.
Here's a masterful performance from REM to help you...
What's your soul saying?
Comment
My eyes are wide open I see you clear My toes touch the floor Our world has been shaking on Oh what's your soul saying? Oh is your world changing? Your face tells me always Things your mouth often spares And I hope you know I'll do what it takes To bring joy into your day Oh what's your soul saying? Oh is your world changing?

My tablet was acting wonky and popped me to this post as I was trying to watch another video and I have to say not only was the timing great as this is exactly what I needed to hear and see at this moment, but it's wonderful! He is a fabulous artist! Thank you!💜💜💜

Avi Kaplan - I'll get by - musical inspiration
Comment
I came across this little story by the musician Avi Kaplan about coming through his darkness, oepning up inside and then the alchemy that came out. Felt to share it with you because it's pretty inspirational. And one of his songs below that, which I found completely outstanding. It's worth working through the density folks!...
Babylon
Comment
The artist David Grey produced this music in his bedroom on a cheap mixing machine when in a financial mess. He managed to crowd fund enough to print the first 5000 copies. It sold like hot cakes and the rest is history. "Let go of your heart, let go of your head", when we have a passion and unleash it, miracles can and do happen...
Everyday Life
Comment
Thanks Marije. I just came out of meditation also, during which I felt the impulse to play this exact same song. There was a boatload of powerful energy moving especially during the heartful Alleluia's at the end. The false father energy had attempted to... scare my soul into fragments for but after feeling through it all I let go, and I was still there, looking back at him.
Then I was deep in a coffin mummified and buried and forgotten in the earth, buried under layers and layers of density, with the awareness that there were miles and miles of collective humanity buried the same way, still asleep. The scene shifted to 4D in the outer atmosphere where I could see everyone - white, frozen and shattered. There were many of us in boats now, and the heart of our breath was bringing warmth and vitality to the white frozen soul shards, and more and more were beginning to move and feel again.
There was a strong realignment within me as well that seemed to somehow connect with our entire Openhand family, and I was wondering if the feedback loop would hit as well. Wow.

Intriguing video - no prizes for guessing what's she's singing about!...

Thank you for Monsters
Comment
Thank you for posting this Open. It really resonated with me as my fiercely independent 96 year old dad had a fall a couple of weeks ago, made worse by hospital staff. I know he has no fear of moving on and I can see the conflict in him – part of him really wants to go home and part feels it has to carry on fighting to achieve the 'best' outcome the hospital staff want for him. I can see it in his moods, one day fighting back and the next wanting to leave. All I can do is watch and support him in whatever way feels right in the moment. This gave me an opportunity for a much needed emotional release as while I try to support him as he fights his 'monsters', I am grappling with my own....

Monsters by James Blunt - emotional video about family
Comment
Just came across this tremendous video by James Blunt - clearly about the relationship with his father. I found it deeply moving. See what it touches in you...
Gethsemane
Comment
Came across this today and it reminded me how deeply this movie, especially this song, has always touched me. The raw vulnerability, initial resistance, pain, confusion and - ultimately - surrender to the divine.
Messiah - but who's leading?
In reply to Gethsemane by .
Comment
It's powerful Hannah for sure. Thanks for sharing. To me it depicts brilliantly the separation of ego from the God within. "God" does nothing to us. The separation is picking up a flow which the ego is interpreting as being from outside. "God" doesn't want anything from you - the movement of the One inside is willing you to be yourself. There's an awesome mini series out on Netflix called "Messiah" and the character in this plays the flow expression wonderfully, completely and willingly surrendered to it, whatever comes up. It also deals very well with the importance of empowering others to make their own decisions. It's worth watching...
Jont - an exerecise in unreservedly expressing yourself!
Comment
One of the number 1 things I constantly find myself expressing in the Openhand work is the essential importance of unreservedly expressing yourself - set the soul free. Self realisation work is made so much easier and simpler because of it. As the wave of the soul rises, it connects you with the shores of the presence, but then also starts to clear out the density that gets in the way.
That's why personally I find the music of Jont and his vibe so inspirational. He just lets it flow. Be inspired...
