Luminaries: Sharing Light through Music -P1/2

We are Luminaries,
so are you.
Here to spread that love.
Splendid viewers,
welcome to this week’s
Vegetarian Elite,
as we meet the conscious
hip-hop band, Luminaries.
One Love, One Blood,
and One Heart
One People, One World,
and One God
We gotta come together
united for One Cause
Put your hands up
in the air for peace!
Luminaries is a family of
seven vibrant individuals:
Amore One, Ben Jammin,
Dreams,
Eric Soul Livin, Free(w)ill,
J Brave,
and Konscious Krieger.
They are all gifted artists,
and they have all been
united by their shared
vision of an uplifted,
peaceful world.
Supreme Master
Television
visited the tranquil
Luminaries Circle House
in Woodland Hills,
California, USA,
where we were welcomed
with opened arms
for a nice chat with several
of the band members.
The gathering began with
a prayer of gratitude.
I give thanks
for this family, this circle,
this community.
And for this time where
we are able to make a stand
for what we believe in.
Let us invoke the spirit
into this moment, invoke it
into all of our words,
all of our thoughts,
all of our actions,
let us embody the spirit.
Praise the Most High,
and so it is.
And so it is.
The Luminaries brings us
a unique, empowering
form of music
blending rock, rap, funk,
soul, and hip hop.
I think our music bridges
a lot of genres.
And all of us
come from different
cultural backgrounds,
different upbringings,
different musical influences.
And I think that is really
reflected in the music.
We compile
all of that together,
and it all kind of gets
put in the golden orb
in the center
and we stir it up.
And I think
we’ve really done our best
to be authentic
in what we put forth
and allow each other
to bring out
their natural tendencies
in the music,
and it becomes unique
and becomes luminous.
And the resulting music
radiates a message
of love and unity.
For me,
our music is about peace,
our music is about justice,
our music is about freedom,
and our music is
about liberation.
Liberation of the soul,
our music,
through our stories,
it resonates with
basic universal concepts
of humanity.
Our music is
about self preservation,
and our music is very
positive, very uplifting,
very empowering.
It’s a reminder to myself.
It’s about love,
it’s about love for oneself.
It’s about love for
all the people in the world,
love for all life
on this planet, including
the living Mother Gaia.
And I guess,
ultimately, our music’s
about connection.
In fact, it was through
the common ideals of
compassion and the yearning
for enlightenment
that brought
the Luminaries together.
I met this guy, Javis,
playing basketball,
and I just felt the kinship
with this guy.
We were two people
on a path, didn’t know
where we were going,
we were both young and
trying to figure things out.
different people.
And we realized that
together, musically as well,
like we had something
to say.
And it’s funny because
it wasn’t until I said yes
to my spiritual path that I
even got on the microphone
to record.
I followed a blog posting
on MySpace
from a revolutionary
hip-hop artist known as
Immortal Technique
who was talking about
South Central Farm.
South Central Farm is
the nation’s largest urban
community farm, 14 acres
in South Central LA.
We had 350 families
growing their own food,
a safe place
for children to play.
J Brave here had thrown
an event about a month
or two prior to me
getting involved.
We ran into each other
at a hip-hop festival
and we were both kind of
doing positive conscious
hip-hops, you know,
hip-hop with a message.
It was working together
for social services
that led MCs J Brave,
Freewill, and Amore One
to create Luminaries
in 2006.
Since then,
they have used their
musical talents to bring
inspiration to others.
“Music is my medicine.
I’mma let it in,
deep inside, feel the vibe,
time to go within.”
What people have said to me
after shows is
they feel moved, they feel
touched and inspired.
And I’ve seen that and
heard that from a variety
of different people,
from young people
to hip-hop heads,
to surfers to older people
in their late 40s and 50s.
And seems that when
the message universally
is expressed and
they receive that by choice,
it breaks all borderlines
of genre, and it goes
right to their heart.
And to me it feels good
to hear those things
because I know that
it’s affecting the people
in a positive way.
And I know that we’re
not here to save anything;
we’re here to serve it,
serve the world.
So, that’s it.
P is for the people
E is for the essence
A is for the answers
that we get
from God’s questions
C is for the conscious
E is for the Earth
So everybody gotta stand up
and find they worth,
A world divided
will often fall to disease
and violence
Gotta get through
the shame and the silence
so we can be united,
Only the righteous
will overcome
and become enlightened,
Living your life
Loving your self
So let the light in
One Love, One Blood,
and One Heart
One People, One World,
and One God
We gotta come together
united for One Cause
Put your hands up
in the air for peace!
One Love, One Blood,
and One Heart
One People, One World,
and One God
We gotta come together
united for One Cause
Put your hands up
in the air for peace!
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
We gotta find a better way
that we can be (Be!)
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
Go ‘head and
let your mind, body, soul
be free (Free!)
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
The answer and solution
always starts with me (Me!)
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
If you want to
save the world,
Be the change
you wanna see!
I gotta peace of mind
I gotta piece of paper
About to
make a perfect rhyme
that the world’ll savor
Counting stars gazing
past 2011
To 2012 infinity – 777
I hope we make it to
Heaven on earth
To see our brethren
Come back, resurrected
Bob Marley the Legend
It’s One Love
And me and my people
are all connected
For world peace
We gotta have
a common collective
Martin taught us the lessons
Of how we should be
respected and
Gandhi truly embodied
the non-violent perspective
Global community unity
maybe you and me
Can sit down
build upon love
’cause it’s what we need
Let’s get to farming and
feeding the people starving
Across the whole planet
What’s going on is alarming
Sustainable living
We don’t need
their provisions
We can grow it pick it
and eat it
That’s the world I envision
On a mission
to spread peace
All around the world
Like Chase, paint a face
Make a beautiful mural
Africa needs peace
Europe and South America
Asia and Australia
Do you believe in miracles?
’Cause it can happen
if everybody would tap in
To all the love
in their hearts
And everyone
started laughing
Time for action
No time to explain
It takes 6 billion
willing people to change
Now imagine
if the words of John Lennon
would come alive
And every body in the world
started to unite
Realize
It ain’t far fetched –
we can do it
Come together for a cause,
do it with the music
Use it, take time
and pursue it
Dreams and aspirations
are all up to you
’Cause everybody
in the world wanna get free
And everybody
in the world, wants peace!
One Love, One Blood,
and One Heart
One People, One World,
and One God
We gotta come together
united for One Cause
Put your hands up
in the air for peace!
One Love, One Blood,
and One Heart
One People, One World,
and One God
We gotta come together
united for One Cause
Put your hands up
in the air for peace!
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
We gotta find a better way
that we can be (Be!)
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
Go ‘head and
let your mind body soul
be free (Free!)
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
The answer and solution
always starts with me (Me!)
Peace worldwide starts
from inside
If you want to
save the world,
Be the change
you wanna see!
One Love, One Blood,
and One Heart
One People, One World,
and One God
We gotta come together
united for One Cause
Put your hands up
in the air for peace!
Vegetarian Elite
will be back
after this brief message.
You are watching
Supreme Master
Television.
Welcome back,
cherished viewers,
to our chat with the
conscious hip-hop band,
Luminaries.
What up y’all?
Peace worldwide.
Everybody put
your fingers up to the sky
for world peace.
Take those two fingers,
right? Hold them up high.
Put them up.
You take those two fingers
and put them together
as one.
Because
apart we’re separate,
but together we’re one.
Everything is one!
And oneness is everything
Everything is,
everything is one
Everything is one!
And oneness is everything
Everything is,
everything is,
everything is,
everything is one
Luminaries is
a free-spirited band
of three MCs
and four musicians.
In sharing
elevating messages,
their songs connect with
people from all walks of life.
Indeed, music is
one of the windows
through which
each of the Luminaries
stays in touch
with the Divine within.
I meditate for maybe 10
or 15 minutes every day,
just to really get
reconnected with who I am.
Music is a huge thing
for me as well, you know,
practicing piano, guitar.
I teach music to kids,
that’s a really meditative
thing and a really
enriching thing for me
that reminds me
of my creative nature,
the Divine power
that allows us to create.
My spiritual practice
I believe is actually my life.
It’s every action, thought,
deed that occurs
throughout my day.
I have certain habits that
I develop to remind myself
that I’m a spiritual being.
Just meditating
in the morning,
taking that 20–30 minutes
whatever, you know,
2 hours, 3 hours sometimes.
Sometimes 5.
Sometimes the whole day.
Meditate,
check in with yourself.
Every moment is precious
and every breath is a gift
Every second’s a blessing
in every lesson we live
It’s the essence of living
when your eternally giving
Loving yourself
more than anyone,
internally building
Stop clinging and craving
Stop judging and blaming
Start living in the present
cuz ya mind needs
some taming
Go further and further
into a deep meditation
These are the words for ya,
healing helping ya soul’s
elevation illumination!
Shine bright from inside
Let it glow through ya pores
As you start to fly
Like a firefly!
We fly and live life
What a beautiful existence
under moonlit nights
So come on...
Time heals and reveals
all things
Yet the moment is all
we have
Surrender
Nothing ever stays the same
Find GOD from inside
and accept the change
In addition to
music and meditation,
Luminaries maintain
their clarity and spirituality
through kind
and conscious decisions
in their vegetarian diets,
as well as leading
intoxicant-free lifestyles.
I believe
eating a vegetarian diet
is another way
to remind yourself to
connect with your spirit
and that we are
full of life force.
Practicing raw food is a
really grounding art for me.
Eating salads
and super foods is
one of the most powerful
healing tools
I’ve been able to do,
that I do every day.
Really helps me to feel
connected to the Earth.
And we don’t have to
harm other creatures
on our planet
in order to connect
in order to survive.
There’s some human beings
out there living on
a grain of rice a day
or very little,
and it’s because
they’re connected fully
with their spirit.
They know they can
just channel that in.
On a separate occasion
when we met with
Daniel Konscious Krieger,
he conveyed his heartfelt
gratitude to
Supreme Master Ching Hai
for her loving reminder
on why a vegan diet
is the only one suitable
for a dignified humanity.
I heard Supreme Master
speak about her passion
for why people should
let go of a meat lifestyle
and go to
a vegan plant-based diet.
It saves so many lives,
and the way that
she conveyed that message
was just so direct and
you really felt her heart
coming out with that.
And being a year long,
2 years actually
I’ve been a vegan,
and it was like
an awakening for me
that I realized how my diet
affected the planet.
Not only the planet, it
started with the realizing
how it affected my friends
and family, my health.
And it’s
a really powerful message.
So, just gratitude for
putting that message out
so clearly,
and those animals
they need our help.
It’s up to us
to end this enslavement
and turn it around
and become herbivores
once again
that we were meant to be.
So thank you
for that message
and it’s an honor.
Make sure
you join us again next week
as we continue our chat
with the Luminaries.
We’ll get a peek into
what the guys are eating,
learn more about their
life-loving endeavors,
and of course,
hear more uplifting
Luminaries music.
And now,
please stay with us
for Between Master
and Disciples, up next
on Supreme Master
Television.
May laughter
be the constant melody
that dances in your heart.
Be inspired and uplifted
with the Luminaries
