El Canto de la Ballena


Ballena Franco Austral, Southern Right Whale
It is a sound born deep in the belly of the ocean. A low, slow moan emanating from the great depths, from the sacred home of these enormous creatures. It's melody is sad yet soothing, penetrating the soul and shaping the dreams of those lucky enough to be sleeping on the shores of their seas. Their song is like a meditation, the melodies almost hypnotizing; a giant singing bowl del mar. The mighty om of the ocean vibrates the core, breaching the surface of the waves, floating on the wind, dancing with the sands, swirling my mind as I drift peacefully to sleep...Ballena lullaby. 

"There is no need to search; achievement leads nowhere. It makes no difference at all, so just be happy now! Love is the only reality of the world, because it is all One, you see. And the only laws are paradox, humor and change. There is no problem, never was, and never will be. Release your struggle, let go of your mind, throw away your concerns and relax into the world. No need to resist life; just do your best. Open your eyes and see that you are far more than you imagine. You are the world, you are the universe; you are yourself and everyone else too! It's all the marvelous play of God. Wake up, regain your humor. Don't worry, you are already free!" - Way of the Peaceful Warrior
