When Amoda asked me to write some songs inspired by her book “How To Find God In Everything”, I was thrilled. But the actual process of creating this CD was much more amazing than I had imagined.

I know the book very well, as I have been a part of its conception and birth. I have wanted to use it as a basis for music and I have been writing songs about The Beloved for quite some time. But I have never been satisfied with the results.

The 3 weeks of creating this CD have taken me deeply into myself. I was doing a 21-day process of inviting the Beloved into myself and I was rising at 4.30 am to meditate, walk in nature and write in my journal for 3 hours before starting work. I asked a lot of questions and I have invited the Divine inside to guide me in all I do and to take control of my life. Initially I had the usual creative ups and downs and it was a bit of a struggle trying to work out how to create the songs and which ones to choose from the many ideas I had.

But slowly what emerged was that the Beloved was filtering out everything that was not directly about the Divine! Anything that was negative, had a hint of ego or was not the right frequency had to go in the bin. After a while, I was left with 10 songs that all had the flavour and fragrance of the Beloved. And I felt as though I was a vehicle for that expression. I was overjoyed.

 


On the final day of my 21-day process I sat at 5am and presented the Inner Beloved, with the CD of these 10 songs as an act of deep gratitude. It is my gift to the Divine that lives inside me as me. I am always offering God my pain, my wounds and my trouble. But this time I have my act of beauty - created through me by the Beloved - to offer back to the Beloved. And I offer it to you in the same way. You are the Beloved.

I hope you can hear it with the same openness of your blazing heart. And, that for one moment, you can taste the exquisite fragrance of the Garden of the Beloved. And in that moment you remember your own beautiful nature … and you feel at home.

Bio

Kavi Jezzie Hockaday has been a guitarist, singer and songwriter for 35 years, playing in bands and as a solo performer in the London music scene. In the past 10 years, his music has gone through a radical change in parallel with his own spiritual transformation. Playing with a group of wild musicians in the hills of Wales and then playing for Ecstatic Trance Dance workshops, he discovered that by “getting himself out of the way” he could enter a space of deep “let-go” in which each note played itself: music became a portal to transcendence of ego and Kavi fell in love with the Divine.

Today, Kavi’s music is aimed at healing the heart and touching the divine essence in each one of us. Filled with joy and love, his music ranges from ambient guitar meditations to uplifting songs of the heart … to the occasional groovy rhythm! His style is unique and modern and always infused with a mystical quality. He has released several albums, most recently “Dancing Buddhas” (an instrumentally-based gently uplifting fusion of electronic sounds and groovy basslines) on his own label TSR Productions and “Unconditional Love” (a tantric tapestry of varied instrumentation and ethereal vocals) on New Earth Records. On the latter, he collaborated with Amoda, his beloved, creative partner and fellow-traveler on the path of awakening.

To Kavi, the relationship with Amoda has been his most inspirational teacher and the love that radiates from this is the guiding force in all that he does. Since he started playing music for Amoda’s workshops in 2001, Kavi has gone on to join her in co-teaching many of her workshops and retreats. Fuelled by the message in her book “How To Find God In Everything” – that a peaceful world can only arise when we are each at peace with ourselves – Kavi has gone on to found the Unconditional Peace Movement (UPM) a non-profit organization that aims to:

1) Establish a community of people living their highest truth by being peace, and

2) Empower others to be agents of change in the world.

Still in its early stages of development, UPM will embrace a number of approaches. The first one is a UPM Compilation CD of global artists whose music inspires the inner journey of transformation to true peace.
