Spirit Voyage

Join Dya Singh on a continuous one hour musical journey ... Aad Gur-ay Nemaih ! Jugadh Gur-ay Nemaih ! Satgur-ay Nemaih ! Sri Gurdav-ay Nemaih ! (My Salutations to the Source of all Existence, who was there before The Beginning. My Salutations to The Keeper of Time who is The Truth, The Creator, and My Master)

Thus begins the Sukhmani Sahib, the Psalm of Peace (of mind). A gift to all humankind passed to us through the fifth Sikh Master Guru Arjan Dev Ji. Written in Punjabi (Gurmukhi), its spiritual impact on the troubled human soul is immediate, soothing and healing. The main topic is that the consistent awareness of the source of all existence, the Creator, the Ultimate Reality, is the balm for all pain and therefore the fount of contentedness. That the true Name (NAAM) resides in the hearts of those who make a serious continuous effort in remembering Him.

Dya Singh has picked extracts of this long psalm to weave into a meditative one hour long musical journey. Listen to it on long drives or have it running continuously in the house to invite an atmosphere of peace yet positive vibrancy and tranquility. Or put it in the background when you have a one hour break for your spirit. That time that you spend reflecting, contemplating, meditating, doing Yoga, `Tai chi`, `Chi-qung` exercises, praying or just plain doing nothing - your break!
