8.Shanti/Ashtangi
Lyrics:Madonna/William Orbit
Music:Madonna/William Orbit
(Adopted from the text by Shankra Charya, taken from the Yoga
Taravali
Translation by Vyass Houston and Eddie Stern)
Vunde gurunam caranaravinde
Sandarsita svatma sukhavabodhe
Nihsreyase jangalikayamane
Sansara halahala moha santyai
Hala hala
Ahahu purusakaram sankha cakrasi
Ahahu purusakaram sankha cakrasi
Dharinam dharinam sahasra sirasam
Dharinam dharinam sahasra sirasam
Vande
Om Shanti, Om Shanti
Shanti shanti
Shantay Om
(repeat)
(repeat entire song)
I worship the gurus' lotus feet
Awakening the happiness of the self revealed
Beyond comparison, working like the jungle physician
To pacify loss of consciousness from the poison of existence
In the form of a man up to the shoulders
Holding a conch, discus and sword
Thousand headed, white
I bow respectfully
Peace
