Peace on Earth, and Good Will to All!

Each year at Christmastime, there are stronger than usual vibrations of Christ-love and joy that emanate to earth from the heavenly realms…Those persons who are in tune through devotion and deep meditation feel in a wondrously tangible way the transforming vibrations of the omnipresent consciousness that was in Christ Jesus. (Paramahansa Yogananda, The Second Coming of Christ: The Resurrection of the Christ Within You)

Traditionally in my home, we enjoy listening to uplifting Celtic Christmas music. The following song is one of my favorites from the album Celtic Christmas (Windham Hill 1995). The song is titled Soillse Na Nollag (“The Lights of Christmas”), arranged by Altan, music by Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh, lyrics by Proinsias O Maonaigh:

Chorus excerpt (English translation):

O come to us Mary and bless our lives,

There’s a welcome and lodging for you and your child,

Banish all hatred and scorn from our minds,

And fill with your love our hearts that are blind.

I wish you, my lovely friends and supporters, Peace on Earth, and Good Will to All. Merry Christmas and a Happy 2024 to come…with love and light!
