GP Deva Musical CD - A Memoir of a Great Patriarch III Review

I had this CD for few months and it does help me to find tranquility during my daily meditation. This masterpiece sure bringing in peace into mind: a day at home or during daily commute. A must have to reward oneself for his/her hard working; or a great gift idea to share the tranquility and peace with friends and families.

Highly recommend this CD!

Product Description
This piece was originally created as a piano suite "Patriarch" by the third Dharma Heir of Forshang Buddhism Master Lee Sun-Don in honor and in memory of his beloved teacher Yuan-Dao Bodhisattva, the second Patriarch of Forshang Buddhism. The piano suite was later rearranged by Pey-Wen Yen for the orchestral composition. Never trained in piano, Master Lee made music not through composing nor on scores. Instead, the jingling, profound melody flew spontaneously out of wisdom attained in his spiritual practice, with his deep remembrance of his beloved teacher galloping freely under his fingers. "A Memoir of a Great Patriarch III" was nominated for the 18th annual "Golden Melody Award" in Taiwan under the category of Traditional Art Music for the best composer in 2007.

Through his melodic compositions, Master Lee shares and manifests his deep Zen wisdom to introduce the harmonization of the spiritual body and the universe, timelessly and unconfined by the boundaries of space. When you listen to the songs of this disc, the melodies will provide your soul with unlimited enjoyment. Especially for those seeking the tranquility of meditation, Master Lee's compilation will provide assistance in reaching such peace when accompanied softly during your personal routine.

Total playing time of this musical CD is approximately 48 minutes. Music pieces include:

  • Grand Fearlessness (8:24)
  • Kingly Compassion (4:26)
  • Child in the Wind (8:44)
  • Past Life--Stroll Along the Seashore (4:19)
  • First Rendezvous (2:45)
  • Bodhisattva Wisdom Eyes / Song of Dharma Body / Tides in, Tides out (10:38)
  • The Last Transmission (8:18)
