The haunting hollowness of the guitar wailings on 'Flight' is unlikely to get washed away from your mind, hard as you may try. There's a magical purity to the guitar notes here, and an ambiguity which is quite charming as well. Is this electric guitar being coaxed into sounding acoustic, or is this acoustic guitar coming off all steely and electrified? Flight is an intriguing piece of instrumental work, with the artist displaying experimental guitar playing of a rarefied nature. Hawkwise is a one-man project, with acoustic guitars forming the backbone of the sound. His listed influences include Nick Drake, Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream. The Pink Floyd reference really hits home, because there's an unmistakable 'Wish you were here' feeling to Flight. Perhaps it's in the way the crisply stroked guitar notes seem to linger in the air for just so long. Maybe it's in the way the various notes unite in one melodic confluence. Hard to put a finger on, really.

The whole world is ensouled by the marvellous and mighty Presence of the Divine. Every speck of space is filled with the infinite Power and Glory of the Divine. Every atom is charged with Its Love and Ecstasy. Here and now anyone can experience the Divine in all Its perfections." "Absolute Peace and absolute Beauty are the two eyes of the Absolute, which is Being-Consciousness-Bliss." "The more we are conscious of God's presence in daily life, the more intense is the fullness of the joy we experience. God means infinitely more to our existence than the light of the sun means to the plants and trees." "The realm of Bliss belongs to those, who give up their assumed separation from God and seek refuge in His perfections." "How to know God? By being still. How to be still? By practice of meditation. Meditation is the art of being still in body, in mind, in heart, in will, in the entire inner being, and enabling the higher Divine Consciousness in us to have direct, immediate perception of God." "Seek the Infinite, for that alone is Joy unlimited, imperishable, unfailing, self-sustaining, unconditioned, timeless. When you have this Joy, the Light, the Grace, the Power, the Perfections of your supreme inner Consciousness appear in your outer everyday life." "The perception of the one Life Principle or God, in all, the merging of the personal self in the Divine Self of all creatures, great and small, is the ultimate meaning and end of life. To rise from this world of limitations while yet breathing on earth into the boundless world of Freedom and Beauty, Power and Joy, is the purpose of our brief, but meaningful existence." "No matter what pattern of education we impart to the students, determined by the State or the Society, as instruction of intelligence, the leading Purpose in our system of education remains the Enlightenment of intelligence, ‘dhiyo yo nah pracodayat’. Such an enlightenment of the student’s intelligence endows him with real and rich inner and outer wealth. It is the Value of all Values. Jivanmukti* is the practical ideal of education." "Every phase of life has in it some poetry. Every facet of life is aglow with the eternal Energy and Light of the infinite Truth. Every circumstance of life is rich with the splendour of spiritual glory. The whole world is throbbing with the divine Consciousness that is the source, the soil and the fulfilment of all that is. Man’s primary duty consists in knowing, and being in harmony with, this all-pervading, all-sustaining, infinite Light of the supreme Reality, Being, Existence, Consciousness."

There is no greater poverty of human disability than human ignorance; and, therefore, the best way to do the best of philanthropic and humanitarian sevices is to illuminate the minds and enlighten the hearts of the people. Make them lights unto happy, but make others happy, not only shall they be rich, but enrich others, not only shall they give, but give more and more abundantly."
