- Nicki Wells sings a rendition of the ancient prose written by Adi Shankaracharya 730 CE to pay homage to the Guru (Teacher) within and without.
Approximate translation of Sanskrit the Prose:
Even if you have a healthy body, a beautiful wife,
Have worldly fame and own mountains of money,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? What is the use?
Even if you have a wife, wealth, children, grand children.
Have kingdoms or if you are born into a prestigious family,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? What is the use?
Even if you are an expert in six angas and the four Vedas,
An expert in writing good prose and poems,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? What is the use?
Even if you are considered great in foreign lands, dazzling in riches,
And greatly regarded in the virtues of life,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? What is the use?
Even if you are a king of a great region,
Used to praise and adoration,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? And What is the use?
Even if your fame has spread world over,
And the entire world is with you because of your charity and fame,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? And What is the use?
Even if you do not concentrate your mind,
On passion, Yoga, fire sacrifice,
Or in business affairs,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? And What is the use?
Even if your mind stays away in the forest,
Or in the house, or in duties or in great philosophical thought
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? And What is the use?
Even if you have a priceless jewel collection,
Surrounded by all the rices of the world,
If your mind does not bow at the Guru’s feet,
What is the use? What is the use? And What is the use?
Shri Mataji x3
If this is not a Voice from heaven, than i don't know what is?!!!

I just want to say @Nick Wells you are a gem, I love how much you meaning and feel you keep in the music. I don't know how much you grew up or experienced in Indian classical music but I as a person of Indian heritage take my hat off to you. The words and emotions you are expressing and putting into the world have been sung for almost 1300 years. Whether you feel a part of the culture or not you are singing the words of generations of people, there is a direct line of humans who have sung these words, bringing joy and emotion to people. Long may it go on.
I can't express the joy I feel when I see hear music and traditions kept alive of all cultures and played by everyone, its in these moments i feel most apart and closest to everyone, the music belongs and speaks to everyone. LOVE IT. And if you didn't know that a lot of the Shlokas you were singing was taught and passed down by singing them pre-written language, again your also a part of that lineage literally 1000s of years of repetition in an ancient language no one speaks really anymore.
Lovely sentiment, my friend.
Nicki knows what she is singing, the spiritual meanings and the musical heritage. Better than most I expect.
@@spacetime3 thank you! That means a lot to me 🙏🏼
I became an agnostic but I’m waging a journey to be a Bhakt and Nicki wells and Taniya wells’s voice is inspirating me every moment of my life. I found my Guru, and I dedicate this song to my Beloved Guru. Thank you so much Nicki.
So how's your journey coming?
@@shaken_n_move_n it is going good even though there so many obstacles. and as I move forward, it gets easier
who's your Guru if you don't mind me asking?
@@shaken_n_move_n yea, it's fine. He is Shri Om Swamiji. He is the Author of A Million Thoughts by Om Swami.
Try Sahajayoga and become your own guru
