Buddhist Nun Shares The Sound Of Music

"Ani Choying Drolma... Listening to her sing the ancient songs of Tibetan Buddhism is like drinking a strong cup of peppermint tea. Her music cleanses the mind, fortifies the spirit."

Enjoy. :grouphug:

1. I heard that story this morning. Her voice is so beautiful and

yet she appreciates all kinds of music. She became a nun to get away from an abusive father who beat her every day. Thanks for posting this, Blue.

Almost immediately after she began singing, I felt my heart chakra open. For real. I usually keep it tightly closed due to all of the "experiences" I've had. A bit of healing is very nice. Beautiful.
