Bhagavad Gita As It Is, 2-69
"What is night for all beings is the time of awakening for the self-controlled; and the time of awakening for all beings is night for the introspective sage."
PURPORT: There are two classes of intelligent men. One is intelligent in material activities for sense gratification, and the other is introspective and awake to the cultivation of self-realization. Activities of the introspective sage, or thoughtful man, are night for persons materially absorbed. Materialistic persons remain asleep in such a night due to their ignorance of self-realization. The introspective sage remains alert in the "night" of the materialistic men. The sage feels transcendental pleasure in the gradual advancement of spiritual culture, whereas the man in materialistic activities, being asleep to self-realization, dreams of varieties of sense pleasure, feeling sometimes happy and sometimes distressed in his sleeping condition. The introspective man is always indifferent to materialistic happiness and distress. He goes on with his self-realization activities undisturbed by material reactions.

Music and lyrics by - Texito Langa
Yes I know, JAH wants me to grow
When the situation is too raw, I know;
Yes I know, He wants me to grow, I say,
this is my boat I have to row, I know x2
So I man don't stress
Any situation comes
I man knows JAH blesses
All my confrontations yes
So I give JAH thanks and praises
For all these experiences
Man no grow material
I man grows 'na spiritual
When man look 'pon physical
I man knows one is mortal
And I give JAH thanks and praises
For all these experiences
Yes I know that Jah loves me
And wants to protect me from degradation
He wants me back home to the spiritual world
Back to Godhead
So out of love He purifies me
To rectify my inclinations
I've got to give up on the lower nature
"Give up lower nature"
Rise to praise Jah
Man no grow material...
Yes I know JAH wants me to grow divine qualities
Yes I know He wants me to grow genuine humility

Music and lyrics by - Texito Langa
We get high in JAH music
We reach the sky of pure happiness
Yes we glorify JAH thru music
Poetry with good morality
We need no wordily intoxications
All we need is JAH for meditation
Talk about, hear about the Lord
The proper way of lasting satisfaction
We are talking of Human perfection
Joy without ending and deceptions
Only in a purified perception Yeah
One can fully taste JAH Nectar
Degrade not your senses
Feed them properly, feed them cleanly
Give them higher taste, higher knowledge
Stay high forever enjoy the Most High's flavor
His Holiness Devamrita Swami:
Speaks from Srimad Bhagavatam 7.13.27
sukham asyātmano rūpaḿ sarvehoparatis tanuḥ (*1)
manaḥ-saḿsparśajān dṛṣṭvā bhogān svapsyāmi saḿviśan (*2)
(*1) The actual form of life for the living entities is one of spiritual happiness, which is real happiness. This happiness can be achieved only when one stops all materialistic activities.
Psalm 105:1-5
"O give thanks unto the LORD; Call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore. Remember his marvelous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;" - Call upon His name; seek His form and fame. Cause Otherwise your life is vain
(*2) Material sense enjoyment is simply imagination. Therefore, considering this subject matter, I have ceased from all material activities and am lying down here.

Words by - His Imperial Majesty Emperor Haile Selassie I
"Discipline of the mind is a basic ingredient of genuine morality and therefore spiritual strength. Indeed, a university, taken in all its aspects, is essentially a spiritual enterprise which, along with the knowledge and training it imparts, leads students into more wise living and a greater sensitivity to life's responsibilities."

usic by - Texito Langa lyrics by - T. Langa & B. Narasimha Swami
Chorus:
If you want a better world
Be a better person
Have control over your mind
Be the master of your senses x4
I sing, You might not have the power to change the world,
but you hold great power to change yourself for a better world.
Just give up all those desires that keep you from reach higher levels of consciousness,
give it up to the Supreme will,
Yes, surrender to JAH
chorus x4
Listen carefully
(Words by His Holiness Narasimha Swami)
The root cause of disturbance Is the uncontrolled mind. Yet, no modern school or university Teaches how to control the mind.
On the contrary, billions of dollars are spent yearly on advertisements to tantalize the mind, thus creating endless hankering that disturbs even peaceful man.

Music and lyrics by - Texito Langa
Chorus:
Don't waste your time
I'm not going to waste mine
This human form is sublime
Make sure you don't live your life in vain x2
You have obtained now full consciousness
In this rare form of life you strived for,
Don't waste it toiling fruitlessly, just like the Asses, working hard just to gratify the senses
now is the time to enquire about Jah,
time to revive our relationship with HIM
so, be you a householder or in renounced order
just fill your lips with the Holy names of God
And - Chorus x2
Yes, This life is so precious and yet so fragile
This life is short but worth the sacrifice
Not to be wasted in animal activities
eating, sleeping, mating,
defending and in fantasies
Got to be engaged in Devotional activities
to The Lord and make your life perfect
Chanting the Holy Names of God Constantly
Fill your lips with the names of Hari

It's all about Love

Music and lyrics by - Texito Langa
It's all about love,
But what is love all about? x2
Love is all about service
Love is all about sacrifice
Love is selfless. it's all about thee and less me
Love is perfect when surrendered to God
Love is action, it's more than a mere sentiment
Chorus:
Sow your love, grow your love
in Jah's field, I say
Abandon lust and Show your love
for one and all Jah living entities x2
Love has nothing to take,
but everything to give.
"Unconditional Service"
Nothing to gain, and nothing to loose
it is the prime essence of the living entities
it's part of you and it's never apart from you
Chorus x2
Cause it's all about love
and that's what love is all about x2
You only have to - Chorus...

We don't belong here

Music and lyrics by - Texito Langa
Chorus:
I don't belong here
You don't belong here
We don't belong here
Something is wrong here x2
This is a prison house
and not a Mickey Mouse situation
This world is for spiritual rehabilitation
This world is for penances and meditation
and not just for sensual gratification
This world was designed to bring you frustrations
This world is equipped with so many afflictions
This world is a mystical manifestation
Of Gods illusory energy
Chorus x2
Yes we are imprisoned in this illusory energy
Living in a false reality
Right in the wrong side of eternity
Driven by our false identity
It's time to wake up and face reality
give up this false identity
only the names of Lord Hari
can set you free

Music and lyrics by - Texito Langa
There will be reactions
Responding to your actions
They may be good or bad
According to your actions x2
so you better watch what you do
watch what you say
watch what you let through
watch the thoughts that you sustain
It will always come back to you
do unto others as you would have them do to you
Chorus 2:
watch what you do, watch what you say
watch what you let through
watch the choices that you make
Are they worth the price you'll have to pay?
will it bring forth the bliss that you're looking for?
so you better watch what you do
watch what you say
watch what you let through
watch the thoughts that you sustain
It will always come back to you
as you do to others shall be done unto yourself

giving up all attachment to success or failure.
Just leave the outcome at the Lord's feet
and be ready to accept it as He wishes
Remain grateful throughout all changes
JAH knows best what is good for I and all
