Hello, you may have heard of the six degrees of seperation theory, the idea that all people are six, or fewer, social connections away from each other. Also known as the 6 Handshakes rule. As a result, a chain of "a friend of a friend" statements can be made to connect any two people in a maximum of six steps. It sort of explains how the world could be infected with Covid 19 and governments are well aware of it, their actions are geered to slow it down, to stop the Public Health services becoming overwhelmed. The infection is spread from one person to others via respiratory droplets, often produced during coughing and sneezing.[17][18] Time from exposure to onset of symptoms is generally between 2 and 14 days, with an average of 5 days. The standard method of diagnosis is by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) from a nasopharyngeal swab or throat swab. The use of masks is recommended for those who suspect they have the virus and their caregivers but not ! the general public. Meanwhile most of social life in Europe has been arrested and most sports life no longer allowed-in that context last weeks Paris-Nice gave a great send of today with Quintana winning the mountain stage and Maximilian Schachmann winning the race. It's doubtful there will be any classics this spring nor will there be any F1 racing, nor any team sports. And then they say stay at home-and don't get bored but expect plenty of Christmas babies....
Today's artist is an Iranian musical ambassador between the Orient and the West.......N-Joy
xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx
Son of a French mother and a Persian father, Sina is a musical ambassador between the Orient and the West. His message is spiritual - conveyed by prayers and sounds gathered from all over the world. Born in Isfahan (Iran) in 1954, he grew up in Tehran, San Francisco and Paris and was introduced to a life influenced by a rich variety of different cultures from his early childhood. He was still very young when he first started taking singing and guitar lessons, and later, in Germany, he studied piano and composition as well as classical and flamenco guitar.
Sina was prompted to take an interest in scriptures from various religions by an unexpected mystical experience, and over the years, he has acquired further considerable knowledge in a variety of fields - including Qi-Gong, traditional Chinese medicine, yoga and shamanism; all of these have an influence on his work as a creative artist. His creative work is not limited to just music but takes in a number of fields; as a professional photographer, he captures impressive snapshots, photos of landscapes and portraits - and not only on his travels. As a painter, his works have been exhibited in Paris, Hamburg and other parts of Northern Germany.
Sina's unrelenting quest for new sources of inspiration has taken him to many countries, of which India, Nepal, Tibet and Iran have a crucial influence on his art and music. Sina is recognized today as an artist who manages to melt together traditional Oriental influences, modern grooves and the prayer chants of Buddhist priests with international musicians into a unique cosmos of sound. An album was created in a similar fashion following a journey to Iran, the land of his birth, inspired by the teachings of the Persian prophet Zoroaster (also known as Zarathustra). All these productions were created in Sina Vodjani's own modern hi-tech recording studio in Hamburg, the composer bringing together a solid knowledge of recording technology, computer programming and spirituality.
A fascinating conglomeration of guitars, exotic instruments and synthesizers demonstrate what is important to him: creating a link between the worlds. His projects, an essence of the analysis of different cultures and religions, are not finished when the last note has been recorded - Sina then sits down once again at the computer, but this time his creativity flows into artistic layouts for the design of the CD and booklet artwork. Sina says: 'In a way I'm a shaman - for a shaman travels from one world to another.

The Karmapa (honorific title His Holiness the Gyalwa, Victorious One) Karmapa, more formally as Gyalwang, King of Victorious Ones) Karmapa, and informally as the Karmapa Lama) is the head of the Karma Kagyu, the largest sub-school of the Kagyu, itself one of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism. The historical seat of the Karmapas is Tsurphu Monastery in the Tolung valley of Tibet. The Karmapa's principal seat in exile is the Dharma Chakra Centre at Rumtek Monastery in Sikkim, India. His regional monastic seats are Karma Triyana Dharmachakra in New York and Dhagpo Kagyu Ling in Dordogne, France.
Düsum Khyenpa, 1st Karmapa Lama (Wylie: Dus gsum Mkhyen pa, 1110–1193), was a disciple of the Tibetan master Gampopa. A talented child who studied Buddhism with his father from an early age and who sought out great teachers in his twenties and thirties, he is said to have attained enlightenment at the age of fifty while practicing dream yoga. He was henceforth regarded by the contemporary highly respected masters Shakya Śri and Lama Shang as the Karmapa, a manifestation of Avalokiteśvara, whose coming was predicted in the Samadhiraja Sutra and the Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra. The source of the oral lineage, traditionally traced back to the Buddha Vajradhara, was transmitted to the Indian master of mahamudra and tantra called Tilopa (989-1069), through Naropa (1016–1100) to Marpa Lotsawa and Milarepa. These forefathers of the Kagyu (Bka' brGyud) lineage are collectively called the "Golden Rosary".
Karma Pakshi, 2nd Karmapa Lama (1204–1283), is often said to be the first person ever recognized and empowered as a tulku, a reincarnated lama. The sixteenth Gyalwa Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje (August 14, 1924 – November 5, 1981) was spiritual leader of the Karma Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. He was born in Denkhok in the Dergé district of Kham (Eastern Tibet), near the Dri Chu or Yangtze River. Political circumstances altered Tibet radically with the 1950 takeover by China. Karmapa, along with the Dalai Lama, government officials, and other high lamas, attended talks in Beijing to negotiate a settlement. This succeeded for a while, but in 1959 the Chinese government insisted on land reform, and the conflict with the lamas who owned a lot of land accelerated. In February of that year Karmapa took 160 students from Tsurphu Monastery and escaped to Bhutan, taking the lineage's most sacred treasures and relics with them. Tashi Namgyal, the King of Sikkim, offered land to the Karmapa near the site where the 14th Karmapa had established a monastery. It was here that his new seat, Rumtek Monastery, was built in 1966. The traditional seat of the Karmapa, Tsurphu Monastery, still exists, but the number of monks is restricted.
The Karmapas are the holders of the Black Crown (Wylie: Zhwa-nag) and are thus sometimes known as "the Black Hat Lamas". This crown (Wylie: rang 'byung cod pan "self-arisen crown"), is traditionally said to have been woven by the dakinis from their hair and given to the Karmapa in recognition of his spiritual realization. The physical crown displayed by the Karmapas was offered to Deshin Shekpa, 5th Karmapa Lama by the Yongle Emperor of China as a material representation of the spiritual one. The crown was last known to be located at Rumtek Monastery in Sikkim, the last home of the 16th Karmapa, although that location has been subject to some upheaval since 1993 causing some to worry as to whether or not it is still there. An inventory of items remaining at Rumtek is purported to be something the Indian government is going to undertake in the near future.
His first album Karmapa was released in 1996 under the name Sijano Vodjani and was co-produced by Oliver Shanti. This album features samples of prayers spoken by the 16th Karmapa, who died in 1981.

Mysterious, because raindrops can sound so plastic as if they were taken directly from a rock cave on the Himalayas. The piano you don't know where it comes from, the laughter, the children's voices, these erotic singing voice of a dreamy woman, then the coolness of computer sounds again - this is an extraordinary mixture of myth and mysticism, a fantastic world, enraptured, but very close.

Dancing Dakini is also a wonderful album and a great showcase for Choying's remarkable voice. Sina Vodjani uses fast paced dance beats and synthesized instrumentation that at first seem to contradict the subtle vocals, but amazing the result is a great melding, and provides a very uplifting feeling. If you love Choying's voice and appreciate the sacredness of the Tibetan phrases she sings, I don't think that you'll be disappointed with this record.
