The New Epoch · Nahko Bear (Medicine for the People) Aloha Ke Akua

12/22/2012

So, welcome to the new epoch... How are you feeling? How are you breathing? Have you made your shift, yet? ZOOMDOUT up into those higher dimensions, yet? Ripped through the maya and became one with the ephermerally ineffable Eternal Everything, yet?

If you haven´t done any of that yet, don´t worry, you´re in luck... I´m providing you with some thoroughly medicinal music today. Some music to start off your new epoch on the holy note of ¨OM¨. Below is a beautifully aesthetic music video for the Apache/ Puerto Rican/ Filipino acoustic singer/ songwriter Nahko Bear´s song ¨Aloha Ke Akua¨ (the Hawaiian way of saying God is Love).  It´s complete with soul-shaking lyrics and inspiringly beautiful imagery gorgeously expressing the creative potential a truly harmonious relationship between (wo)man and nature has to offer. Just the auditory/ visual gift your soul is most likely hoping for this holy day season.

The images below are all from the Aloha Ke Akua music video. Some of the video was filmed in both Tulum and Palenque, two places I recently had the pleasure of experiencing. I´m actually writing this blog from Palenque in Chiapas, Mexico!

Shot of the beautiful ruins of Tulum. This place is just as majikal and spectacular as it seems. I was recently experiencing this place on Wednesday :)

Everything seems so clear here...

Palanque! This is actually exactly where I was yesterday on the solstice. Had the pleasure of being in a Mayan ceremony in this jungle under about a billion buckets of rainforest-styled rainfall... It was truly wild :) I´ll be sure to post up some videos from yesterday´s ceremony in the near future, so stay ¨in tune¨... 0_0

TIME TO ENTER FULL SCREEN MODE... (spiritual pun intended)

ZOOMDOUT VIDEO OF THE DAY (12.22.12):
Nahko Bear (Medicine for the People) Aloha Ke Akua
Lyrics:

Lend your ears, lend your hands,
Lend your movement, anything you can.
Come to teach, come to be taught.
Come in the likeness in the image of God.
Cause, you can be like that.
With all that humbleness, and all that respect.

All of the power invested in me,
be it hard to love my enemies.
All of the black bags over the heads of the dead and dying.

The more I understand about the human race,
the less I comprehend about our purpose and place
and maybe if there was a clearer line 
the curiosity would satisfy.

Time based prophecies that kept me from living,
in the moment I am struggling
to trust the divinity of all the guides
and what the hell they have planned for us.

I cry for the creatures who get left behind
but everything will change in a blink of an eye
and if you wish to survive,
you will find the guide inside.

I go back and forth every single day,
the clarity that comes to me in a choppy way,
as the feelings and the places
and the seasons change,
the galaxies remain.

Energy fields cone the body in space.
The angels that are coming from a spiritual waste.
The hate that gets me distant from my spiritual pace.
Ten fold the manna when the planets are in place, in polar alignment.
We're on assignment.
Bodies on consignment.
Return them to the circus.

And what is the purpose?
What is the purpose and would you believe it?
Would you believe it 
if you knew what you were for
and how you became so informed?

Bodies of info performing such miracles.
I am a miracle made up of particles
and in this existence,
I'll stay persistent,
and I'll make a difference
and I will have lived it.

Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.

Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.
Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.

And the day that I don't wake up
and transcend the holy make-up,
I am capable, I am powerful.
And the day that I don't wake up
and transcend the holy makeup,
I am on my way to a different place....

I'm not a leader, just a creature,
seeking the features of a teacher.
Whether you follow or whether you lead
All mysterious ways of nature and I'm into it.
Changing management.

And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis,
my stubbornness is bottomless,
my fearlessness is talking shit
and I'm wide awake and I'm taking names.

I am not a leader, just a creature.
Seeking the features of a teacher.
Whether you follow or whether you lead
All mysterious ways of nature and I'm into it.
I'm into it.
Changing management.

And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis,
my stubbornness is bottomless,
my fearlessness is talking shit
and I am wide awake.
And I'm taking names.

And there are various ways to conquer this monotonous metropolis,
my stubbornness is bottomless,
my fearlessness is talking shit,
and I'm wide awake and I'm taking names.

Do you speak to me like you speak to God?
All of the love and understanding between the father and the son?
Do you believe in the perfectness of where you are?
These are my people, these are my children,
this is the land that I would fight for.

My solidarity is telling me to patiently
be moving the musical medicine around the planet in a hurry,
Cuz there's no time to waste.
Got to wake up the people time to stand up and say,
we know what we are for
and how we became so informed.
Bodies of info, performing such miracles.
I am a miracle, made up of particles
and in this existence,
I'll stay persistent
and I'll make a difference
and I will have lived it. ........

Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.
Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.

Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.
Each day that I wake,
I will praise, I will praise.
Each day that I wake,
I give thanks, I give thanks.

And the day that I don't wake up 
and transcend the holy make-up,
I am capable, I am powerful.
And the day that I don't wake up
and transcend the holy make-up,
I am on my way to a different place!

Aloha, Aloha Ke Akua, Ke Akua,
Aloha, Aloha, Kuleana, Kuleana.

I hope you will be happy to hear that Angelo, a friend, translated the words of the song Aloha... in french and that I did the overtitling on the video of Aloha. In the hope that the french speaking world will know Nahko and his group Medicine for the people. Since I cannot reach them by mail for now, I am posting the link to their song in french... In frienship and brotherhood, Hewa Nenki, french Quebec metis and Medicine Man, musician and signer. The family is big... and growing... Big Bear Hug.
Here is the Youtube link:
