Lyrics: You're breathing The wind is blowing The trees are waving Your nerves are tingling The individual and the universe Are inseparable But the curious thing is Very few people are aware of it Everything in nature Depends on everything else So it's interconnected We confuse ourselves as living organisms which are one with this whole universe With something we call our personality And what is our personality? And our fundamental self is not something just inside the skin It's everything around us with which we connect When you look out of your eyes At nature happening out there You're looking at you That's the real you- The you that goes on of itself Now listen It's absolutely necessary That we let go of ourselves- and it can't be done, Not by anything that we call doing it, acting, willing, Or even just accepting things It seems that the human being Really has a very simple kind of mind Nature is wiggly Everything wiggles And all this wiggliness is too complicated [Refrain] Help us caption & translate this video! https://amara.org/v/x85/
