In the Autobiography of a Yogi, Yogananda lists this Cosmic Chant as being among “a number of my compositions.”
Yogananda used these lyrics in a talk: “While others waste their time, meditate, and you will see that in meditation that Silence will speak to you. ‘Give my Mother a soul call. She can’t remain hidden anymore. Come out of the silent sky, come out of the mountain glen, come out of my secret soul, come out of my cave of silence.’ Everywhere I see the Divine Spirit manifesting in form as the Mother.” (Self-Realization Magazine, Spring 1985)
LYRICS:
Mother, I give Thee my soul, soul, soul call.
Thou can’t remain hidden anymore.
Come out of the silent sky,
Come out of the mountain glen;
Come out of my secret soul,
Come out of my secret soul,
Come out of my cave of silence.
Mother I give Thee my soul, soul, soul call.
Thou can’t remain hidden anymore.
WHEN TO USE THIS SONG:
