This song is about being in the present moment. What to do when you walk, eat, sleep etc. You can use it as a contemplation, listening and actualising what the text days. Or you can sing along to really embody the meaning. The lyrics are by realised Tibetan saint, Milarepa, who was famously known as a murderer when he was a young man, before turning to Buddhism and becoming a highly accomplished Buddhist disciple. He is generally considered one of Tibet's most famous yogis and spiritual poets, whose teachings are known among several schools of Tibetan Buddhism. It shows us that no matter what negative acts we might perform, we can always realise the truth in this very lifetime. Lyrics: When you walk, identify your perceptions with mind essence This is self liberation when you walk When you sit, relax and be at ease This is the heart teaching of how to sit When you sleep, sleep in the realm of equality This is the way to sleep in the great light...etc
