Chant of Metta

Kalo gua lagi stress, pucink n banyak pikiran. Pokoknya kalo pikiran lagi mumet banget gua sering dengerin lagu buddhis "Chant Of Metta". Abis dengerin lagu ini hati menjadi lebih tenang pikiran lebih tenang jadi lebih sadar deh kayaknya.

Gua tau nih lagu pertama kali dari pim pas gua lagi inep di kost dia. Dia dapet nih lagu dari Vihara dia di medan. Dia trus puter tuh lagu looping dari malem sampe pagi, pas pertama denger gua jg uda suka kayaknya membawa ketenangan tapi pas gua pulang dari kos dia gua lupa copy tuh lagu. Akhirnya gua gak pernah denger tuh lagu lagi sampe taon kemaren pas lagi waisak. Gua liat di TV iklan mengenai ucapan Selamat Hari Raya Waisak yang pake latar nih lagu. Pas pertama denger lagi lagu ini gua kayak dejavu gitu tapi akhirnya gua inget kalo gua pernah denger nih lagu di tempat pim. Gua langsung sms pim tanya tentang judul lagunya abis itu gua langsung cari n download di mp3.baidu.com.

Kemaren pas lagi gak ada kerjaan tiba2 kepikiran buat nyari lirik lagu ini akhirnya ketemu juga. Douzo...

Metta is a Pali word meaning loving-kindness. Metta chanting is the radiation of loving-kindness towards all beings: May they all be happy and peaceful. Imee Ooi chants the Pali beautifully. Metta chanting is soothing, uplifting, joyful and a great healing for the world - pervading it with waves of love. Truly, may all beings be happy. May they live always in peace and harmony. *Ini arti dari judul lagu Chant of Metta*
