Is love a mystery itself?
In these times of turmoil and chaos we feel like crisis is the only reality. How can we understand? How can we not perceive all this destruction as the only thing that's real? This illusion where we temporarily exist is so real that most of us forget who we really are, the importance of "reality" is so big to us, the importance of defining this dream we are sharing as the ultimate experience, the only existence we have... Is there a solution?
We suffer, I sure have suffered too, filled with this material fantasy, deprived of all hope, thinking that each crisis just makes things worse and worse, nothing gets resolved, nothing gets better. We go into the darkness of the soul and observe for a short moment, a day, a week, some for months, even years. Our darkness swallows us and makes us think there's only one way out of this immense pool of misery, of this ever-darkening panorama: destruction, death.
But it only takes a minimal glimpse of the deepest truth of our lives, the only nature we all possess, the only existence we truly have, the real completeness of our self, beyond this body, beyond this illusion of good and evil, of creation and destruction, beyond this illusion of time and space, beyond all illusion of life and death. It only takes a fraction of a second, a minimal glimpse of this everlasting truth, eternal and unquestionable feeling, something that your heart shouts every second of your life to see: That the only thing that isn't an illusion of all these massive chains of experiences is that of love, love is only a mystery when we're far from our true existence, but when we're close we realize that love is the only real thing there is, the only thing that shapes everything and goes even beyond our tiny human perspective, beyond all those conditions that we believe are love there's this truth, that there's nothing more capable of inspiring and shaping life than love, and we all have it in us, every second of every day of our lives, and beyond.
Love is there, always, it's not a rational concept, it's not an "emotion", it's not a condition nor a call to mate, it's not anything we can reduce it to, it's just everything, every molecule of our beings, every spark of electricity going through our bodies, our minds are not meant to understand it, they can only see a small glimpse, our hearts are the true vessels of that secret, that our true nature is only that of oneness with this dream, with this dream of love.
Isn't it beautiful? You just have to listen, really listen, and see how it gets ignited so easily by anything that brings you true joy, anything, just listen.
And tonight you can listen to this beauty, because some of us just come from a place where music is the only language, and when we remember that beauty we just want to keep listening and making music down here, some of us get the privilege to share it with the world, some of us just get the privilege of express through words how deeply powerful our love can be expressed through music.
Listen, it's so beautiful.

When you listen to music like this one you also remember what it is to be connected to nature, you remember part of the sound of nature in that organic sound, the wood just resonating to the sound of strings being touched, you remember the essential and feel ready to transport yourself again to the best parts of life.
