Lorena McKennitt - The Mystics Dream

A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
It's there that my heart is longing for
All for the love of you

A painting hangs on an ivy wall
Nestled in the emerald moss
The eyes declare a truce of trust
And then it draws me far away
Where deep in the desert twilight
Sand melts in pools of the sky
When darkness lays her crimson cloak
Your lamps will call, call me home.

And so it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
And now I feel, feel you move
Every breath is full
So it's there my homage's due
Clutched by the still of the night
Even the distance feels so near
All for the love of you.

A clouded dream on an earthly night
Hangs upon the crescent moon
A voiceless song in an ageless light
Sings at the coming dawn
Birds in flight are calling there
Where the heart moves the stones
It's there that my heart is longing for
All for the love of you.

Krishna Das - Om Namah Shivaya

Alestorm - Keelhauled

My friends, I stand before you
To tell a truth most dire
There lurks a traitor in our midst
Who hath invoked the captain's ire

He don't deserve no mercy
We ought to shoot him with a gun
But I am not an evil man
So first let's have a little fun

We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope
And throw him overboard
Drag him underneath the ship
A terrifying, deadly trip!

Keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below!
Make that bastard walk the plank, with a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho!
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below!
Make that bastard walk the plank, with a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho!

I will not say what he has done
His sins are far too grave to tell
It's not my place to judge a man
But for them he will burn in hell

The sharks will dine upon his flesh
And Davy Jones will have his soul
Take his money and his hat
He won't need them where he's gonna go

But first let's tie him to a rope
And throw him overboard
Drag him underneath the ship
A terrifying, deadly trip!

Keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below!
Make that bastard walk the plank, with a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho!
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below!
Make that bastard walk the plank, with a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho!

We'll tie that scoundrel to a rope
And throw him overboard
Drag him underneath the ship
A terrifying, deadly trip!

Keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below!
Make that bastard walk the plank, with a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho!
Keelhaul that filthy landlubber, send him down to the depths below!
Make that bastard walk the plank, with a bottle of rum and a yo-ho-ho!

Hacride - Perturbed

Amazes me how all cataclysmic manifestations are originally mere consequences of cause and effect.

Lyrics: Hacride - Perturbed
Source: http://www.lyricstime.com/hacride-perturbed-lyrics.html

Obesession, old demons who defeat you
I search, greedy for calm, my liberty

Let the amoeba devour you
It's your requiem

The racked guided spirit by the past,
Voodoed by this pity witch freeze my veins.
Ridiculousness
This obsession is yours, individual

Invented or hidden, justified or inordinate

Your eyes give away and this secret so well kept
This languidness, suffering from hurt you so much
These perturbed sensations
Macabre mass of my look towards the future

Respect your vision of huminity respect man who regard you
Respect these men who look at you
These memories which spoil life
 

Lord Shiva

There are different paths and ways to reach the goal. The person who could raise "Kundalini" and got" "Siddhis would think that the method followed by him is the quickest way and all others are discarded for him. He preaches the method that gave him the peace.

The persons who attain siddhis behave in different ways. One shuns the society and lives away from humanity. The other come back to the society and preaches the theories and practices they believe.

No method, path, way is wrong. Every practice is right in its place. It is the choice of the practitioner to choose the way that suits to him. Any method that is followed shall be acceptable to the individual concerned.

One visits temples, the other restrict him in performing Poojas at his home. Some reads and studies Vedas and Religious books. The other likes to hear the speeches of great people. Some follows bhajans the other listens devoted songs. Some restricts the diet and confine to vegetarian food. The other takes all types of food at the same time pray the Almighty with all devotion and dedication.

All are right in their way. None of the path excels the other; all leads the person to the goal. Again it is emphasized that one should select a path that suits to ones temperaments. Further it is important that one should stick to the path thus selected. The diversions and deviations causes anxiety and mind disturbances.

All intoxicants in themselves are considered tamasic generally, but it depends on who you ask. As far as intoxicants go, cannibis/ganja/hashish is sattvic.

Also the smoking thing came much later. The original method is to drink it in a bhang mixture. This tradition still exists today. Doesn't have all the harmful effects on the lungs that smoking does, especially when mixed with tobacco like modern day sadhus do.

Shiva's constant intoxication is interpreted different ways. There is no one way or "right" way to interpret it. We just need to interpret it for our own life and our own selves.

Verse 326 : The Wicked Drink in Vama Tantra

Lust and drink, fit for the wicked are they;
In ritual unholy they drink and lose the senses
But the wise drink the nectar streaming from His
feet,
Which destroys egoism and bigotry

Verse 327: Drinking in Vama Tantra Worship Leads to Perdition

They drink and perish, who to the Vama sect belong,
The lustful ones in sensual delights are wholly lost;
But the pure souls find the Light of sacrifices in
their inner flame;
They who His true name chant, approach Him fast.

Verse 328: Truth Eludes Drunkards

They see not the truth, know not the Pasu-Pasa,
They dwell not in the bounteous Lord's Divine
Grace;
In the clear light of Wisdom, Sivayoga they seek
not,
They, who soak in liquors, Truth never can appraise.

Verse 329: Followers of False Religion Neither Seek nor See Him

The fools who swear by the faith that our senses
numbs,
Who yield to the heady joys of drink - they neither
seek or see
Mamaya's Home, for the Maya's fetters are they
bound;
But recovered from Maya's hold, they merge in the
Lord and are free.


Verse 330: Wine Stupefies Senses and Destroys Truth

The fumes of wine stupor bring and destroy the
Truth,
And make us seek the false, delusive joys of lust;
Such advance not to Wisdom true, of sweet reason
compact.
Will such attain the eternal Bliss truest?

We both had done the math
kelly added it all up
and she had to let me go
i added it up
knew that i had lost her
cause i was never gonna get off the island
was gonna die there
totally alone
was getting sick or get injured or something
the only choice i had
the only thing i could control
was when
and how
and where that was gonna happen
so
i made a rope
and i went up to the summit
to hang myself
i had to test it you know
ofcourse you know me
and the weight of the log
snapped the limb of the tree
i couldn't even kill myself
the way i wanted to
i had power over nothing

That's when this feeling came over me
like a warm blanket
i knew somehow
i had to stay alive
somehow
i had to keep breathing
eventhough i had no reason to hope

And all my logic said
that i would never see this place again
so that's wat i did
i stayed alive
i kept breathing

And one day that logic
was proven all wrong
because the tide
came in and gave me a sail
now here i am
back in memphis
talking to you
i have ice in my glass

And i have lost her all over again
i'm so sad that i don't have kelly

But i am so grateful
that she was with me
on that island

And i know
what i have to do now
got to keep breathing
for tomorrow the sun will rise
who knows what the tide could bring

Sully Erna - Sinner's Prayer

To love the right,
yet do so wrong.
To be the weak,
yet burn to be so strong.

go rider, although your ride has been through life.
go rider, i see your soul through the devils eyes.

if i could live my life again,
would i have lived that life insane?

go rider, go ride into the night
go rider, now see your soul through a woman's eyes

i am a sinner

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/sinners-prayer-lyrics-sully-erna.html ]

hold my prayers up to the sun
i am a sinner
heavens closed for what I've done

what have i done
what have i done?

i am sinner hold my prayers up to the sun
i am sinner
heavens closed for what I've done

heavens closed for what I've done
