# 2023-04-10 - Samgacchadvam, Let Us Move Together
       
       In all of the scriptures of the human race, there may not be found a
       more deeply and beautifully expressed hymn to human unity than
       Samgacchadvam.  First sung more than 10,000 years ago by a people
       living in Central Russia, where it became included in the Rig Veda,
       it is now sung by people around the world as a prelude to collective
       meditation.  Its affirmation of unity is not only timeless, but has
       heightened relevance for the fragmented humanity of today.  Here is
       its phonetic pronunciation from Sanskrit, along with its English
       translation.
       
           Sung ga cha dwung, sung wa da dwung
           sung wo manaang see jah nahtam.
           Day vah bhahgung yatah poorvay
           sung jah nah nah oopah satay
           
           Samah nee va ah kootee
           samah nah hri dayah nee vaha
           Samahna mastoo wo mano
           yatah vaha soo sa hah satee
           
           Let us move together; let us sing together;
           let us come to know our minds together.
           
           Let us share like sages of the past
           that all people together may enjoy the universe.
           
           Unite our intention;
           let our hearts be inseparable.
           
           Our mind is as one mind
           as we, to truly know one another, become One.
