An old Irish blessing and the golden voice of Snatam Kaur. From the album 'Grace' (Spirit Voyage Records 2004).

May the long time sun shine upon you,

All love surround you,
And the pure Light within you
Guide your way on,
Guide your way on,
Guide your way on!

Snatam Kaur Khalsa (born 1972 in Trinidad, Colorado), is an American singer and songwriter. She performs the Sikh devotional music, kirtan and tours around the world as a peace activist. She lives in Española, New Mexico. Like all American Sikhs, and followers of Yogi Bhajan, she shares the middle name "Kaur" and the last name "Khalsa" with other female Sikhs.

Early life and education

Her family moved to California when Snatam was two, living in Long Beach and Sacramento. When Snatam was six, the family went to India where her mother studied Kirtan. Snatam lived on a ranch near Bolinas, California until 8th grade and then moved to Mill Valley in 1986. During her childhood, she played kirtan with her mother in Sikh temples and at Sikh religious ceremonies. She attended Tamalpais High School in Mill Valley. While at Tam High, she played violin in the school orchestra and began songwriting. Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead coached her and her classmates before they performed her song Saving the Earth at an Earth Day concert in San Francisco on April 22, 1990.

Snatam was also active in social and environmental causes while in high school, serving as president of the social action club known as, "Students for Justice," her Senior year. The club started a campus recycling program and organized environmenal awareness programs. The club also led the effort to change the school mascot and sports team names from the Indians to the Red Tailed Hawk in 1989 and 1990 due to a speech given at the school by Sacheen Littlefeather.

After graduating from Tam, Snatam attended Mills College in Oakland, California, receiving a bachelors degree in biochemistry. She then returned to India, to study Kirtan under her mother's teacher, Bhai Hari Singh. In 1997, Kaur began a career as a food technologist with Peace Cereals in Eugene, Oregon.

Go lonródh an ghrian ort ar feadh i bhfad, grá id thimpeall, agus go dtugadh an solas laistigh dui tar do threoir thú.

Irish-Gaelic to English Translation: May the longtime sun shine upon you, all love surround you, And the sweet light within you guide you on your way.

The original Irish, had they been saying this, would have glorified their love of life. The Irish were long ago worshipers of the sun as the planet's life-giver.

St. Patrick gives, according to an Erse poem, no such credit to the Irish; crying out, "O blasphemous Cumhal, that honour you pay to the sun, through ignorance of the omnipotent King, is no more perfect than if you worshipped your shield." The Milligans, in their learned story of the Irish under the Druids, say, "They worshipped the sun as their principal Deity, and the moon as their second Deity, like the Phœnicians."
And:
"Ossian sang--"When wilt thou rise in thy beauty, first of Erin's maids? Thy sleep is long in the tomb. The sun shall not come to thy bed, and sing, 'Awake Darthula! Awake, thou first of women! The voice of spring is abroad. The flowers shake their heads on the green hills. The woods wave their growing leaves.' Retire, O Sun! The daughter of Colla is asleep. She will not come forth in her beauty. She will not move in the steps of her loveliness."
Snatam Kaur Khalsa is a Sikh, and according to Sikh wiki, the Kshatriyas — with a minority of Sikh converts, had engaged in sun worship, and their clan is named after the lord of the sun. The Punjab, where the Sikh religion originates, is a center of sun worship.

The sun is a source of life.

Is it THE Source of life?

Can it LOVE you back?

The people who believed these things are long dead. Many of them were killed by Catholic priests, who themselves were bowing down to a Jewish god. Their books were burned. Their poets were blinded. Their wise men crucified. What did they know? Christians eradicated so much of what they knew that it's very difficult to say. We do not know that the dead believed that the sun loved them in return, but the things the sun bestowed on them, they did see as bounteous and merciful. Apparently many, many peoples across the earth shared similar views.

Followers of Germanic religions bowed to no one, nor did they supplicate. They either changed the world around them, or died trying. It took the Roman empire to crush them, and still their ideas live on.
