“Awakening” by David English is a deeply meditative piece that blends personal reflection with spiritual philosophy. Set against the calm beauty of a Mediterranean evening, the song draws listeners into a space of stillness and awareness — where the boundaries between self and spirit begin to blur.
Using the poetic image of the moon reflected in still water, English captures the essence of spiritual awakening — that profound realization of a truth beyond the surface of daily life. Influenced by the teachings of Lama Thupten Yeshe and Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj, “Awakening” feels both intimate and universal, reminding us that enlightenment often begins in silence.
With its serene tone and thoughtful lyrics, the song stands as an invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the deeper self — a quiet but powerful call to wake up.
