How wonderful is this. One-day-full! This is Anoushka Sharma speaking the Raag Gara (uncertain) thirty years after a Thultex add that is steeped in Sinhala Jana Kavi. The tunes are almost identical. The raag itself uses six notes in the ascend and all 7 in the descend. This is the raag played on the P or 5th or according to western music, the dominant. In Eastern Music the shift is much more im...

Why when we meet, instead of complimenting each other we conflict with each other? The way of ego has devoured us. We must... stop.
Plant nutrients? Energy is required. It must come from our bodies . Not our discussions.

A great Sinhalese stating something all Sinhalese need to hear
I heard this 5 years ago when i was pregnant with my son... now I am pregnant with my daughter and I had to find this because I will write this down and remind her of these exact words!!
A Gem of many facets .
I was 16 when I first listened to this, I'm 20 now and I hear everything differently
I have heard this a million times but now I am 29 weeks with my baby girl. It hits different. Delilah.
This is up to today still my favourite poem and it still makes me weep every time.
this is soooooo trashhhh
i can’t read by lamont carey is so much better then this crap
i hate this
this is terrible
worst poem ever
The music and voice are remarkable, The reality of killing and war, hatred and resulting despair and anguish, lost loved ones, orphaned children, the mental anguish is more than ones mind and heart can bear. If only mankind could have used all that energy, money, effort and planning into acts of kindness and love for our human brother and sisters, this world could be in a much better place. Very sad.😢
Thank you for sharing. Very meaningful to share ❤
this is so incredibly vapid and hollow, nothing could be emptier except those who applaud it or believe it has substance; damn, you people need to try and read some.
තම තම නැණ පමණින්!
I remember purchasing this book (one of my favorite poems) when you came to my high school (wow.. almost ten years ago?), and I loved this poem for the mom I could one day be. Now I read it to my daughter, turning one this week.. and I love it even more. Thank you, Sarah.
Beautiful ❤
Here I am years later still watching this to reparent myself lol
One of the most humble human beings I've seen in my life.
If she wasn't cute, who would sit through this doggerel?
Heard this piece for the first time when i was 16-17, and now...i'm 29 and this piece still resonates with me 🥺🥺 and wow, Sarah sounds so young here!
So damn wise and beautiful.
“They’ll be days like, my mama said”
Listened for the first time at age 14. Here I am 10 years later with a daughter of my own! Such a beautiful poem.
wow.. and 10 years later.. I am single again..
I first listened when I was 13 and ten years later for me too
i chanced upon this 10 years ago too! today i found it again :)
I am in the same position. It's incredible.
I remember in college, my professor in a major education course used to let us pick a TED talk and present it in class, I chose this. One of my all-time favourite.
The solar systems?
I love how over 20 years later, people adopted this logic. Yoda was right.
The first time I listened years ago I loved the beauty of the message. But now it's so much more powerful because I've internalised all the truths she shares.
Such bullshit and why I don't hold Yoda as the paragon of wisdom pop-culture makes him out to be. Fear is innate in all living creatures and to hover the threat of 'BUT BUT, DARKSIDE' when one of the Jedi Order even feels the slightest inkling of this natural trait is completely unrealistic and honestly makes the release of the darkside/being a grey jedi quite tempting. Yoda deserved his moist shack in the swamp.
Years later and this is still my favourite poem I've ever heard/read ♥️
💙💙💙
Fuck yoda
Why is no one in the comments section pointing out the way yoda looks in this scene? The guy seems to have overdosed ketamin a bit💀
Zero sympathy for Vader. I don't even like that after all the evil all of a sudden he redeems with one act and gets to be a Force Ghost. Irks me . BUT SHIT - they shit on this kid from minute one. What, you can't miss your own Mom? A young kid who had one parent can't be scared of never seeing her again? Then Windu always treated him like shit. Sometimes I feel they might as well have driven him to the Emperor's house, given him money for lunch and a Red Lightsaber, and wished him will working for the Sith. Christ they. could've thrown even a token morsel of respect his way here and there.
Why does it look like Yoda’s smoking in the thumbnail?
Why did Anakin forget these words that Yoda told him?
Why didn't they just save his mother?
This scene one can correlate to ourselves. How true that fear is an emotion which if it gets overwhelming can lead us down a path to engage in terrible and ultimately destructive results.
Basically the Jedi are psychopaths.
0:40, young Anakin looked at Mace Windu thinking, "What is this old puppet talking about? I am just a KID." 0:42, Mace Windu looks back, "Oh, you're going to learn some real SHIT here." 0:43, young Anakin, "Ah, OK, no help there."
You stole a child from his mother and you're wondering why he's afraid. Stupid fucking Jedi I swear.
that is a fly in a world of ants.
Agree
whenever i see videos of the old movies without the modern edits it always trips me out
Anyway, it was so nice of the Jedi council to lecture young Anakin instead of actually assemble a team and try to rescue his mom...
The funny thing its, all the times Darth Sidius said to Anakin: "They are afraid of you, afraid of what you could become". He wasnt lying at all xD. The jedi order, so wise, rigthteous and yet can be so close minded, so idiots! They in the end give Anakin a chance in the order, but not because they really believe in him, but to honor Qui gon's memory. And showed that when they denied so hard to Anakin the rank of master Jedi. They put the seed to Darth Vader be born, Sidius just made it bloom.
"See through you, we can" hmm, not sure about that.
Man the Jedi as they were here, had to end man. Anakin went to the council regularly on how to deal with his emotions and they always just told him “dark side . Dark side”. “How can I be a good Jedi?” …Jedi council : “don’t go to the dark side” TF CRAZY How George Lucas had this all thought out 🤯
Yoda is a bit of a bummer 😏
Your brother did NOT commit suicide. It was a tragic accident. I have it on a Coroner's report.
