A Tune of Yearning | by 千年破曉

[@eternalspace668]

Long ago a monk wanted to travel and explore all over the cities of Asia. With a small hand-made bamboo he created a raft that would take him on these adventures. As the raft drifted the monk to the sea a water goddess sat beside him. Her beauty and grace was truly a sight to see like the moon. Her voice was gentle and sweet like cherry petals. The monk ask kindly what brings her to his raft. The goddess said to him that beyond the water is a destructive tsunami heading to the village and that it is not safe to go. The monk listened to the goddess and went back to warn the others of the news. Everyone reached to higher grounds except the monk. As he walked the rocky road he slipped and fell into the roaring waves. Deeper and deeper into the sea he went. Cold and darkest was all he could see. As the monk was on his last breath the water goddess took his hand and pulled him to the surface. The monk woke up alone with her red umbrella. He looked for the water goddess who saved him.

My daily bed time routine is to listen to one of these melodies to ease my mind in peace ...at the same time read the story written in the comment section .... It's so peaceful and worthy ❤️❤️

[@CrazyFunnyCats]

Great images indeed So peaceful too 👍🐾😊🐯

[@nxthaistsheej]

Geeze, all these great melodies takes me back to my young days where I could just sit around all day watching Chinese drama. Oh how I miss those days! Thinking back to it, I feel those were the most relaxed and worry free. These awesome music takes me into another level, into a sanctuary-as if I was actually in those Chinese drama! hahaha! Thanks for sharing such wonderful tunes! Loving it!

[@quqbalam5089]

"Buddha, protect and bless the woman I love, that woman with whom I'm never going to be. Allow her entrance to your abode and deliver her from an early death."

[@quqbalam5089]

Also, why do I feel that the legend the video references is a Daoist polemic against Buddhism? It feels like an argument against Buddhist aloofness from the world, the futility or denying your true human nature while acknowledging the superiority of Daoist deities, represented by the goddess with whom the monk falls for, a goddess who shows him the Daoist path of human fulfillment in this life rather than in the next as Buddha taught.

[@savan522]

Thank you so much for your great efforts in sharing such delightful music. Your channel has helped me deal with with so many hardships, I can't put into words how the comforting melody has become such a positive impact in my daily life. This is something my 9 year old son and I listen to often to fall asleep. It helps with insomnia and stress as well as days when you really just want some "me time" to relax and feel comfortable. Thats how much I've gained from you. So thank you instead!

[@TaiGekTou]

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that you're going through some hard times, but I hope everything gets better soon. They always do. ^_^ And thank you for all your kind words. I don't know how to make thank you speeches, but I truly appreciate your support!

[@sofeecat8800]

The umbrella left to the monk seems to convey that the water goddess and the monk would never meet each other again. Just kept the memory of the event and recognized it forever.

[@RealReaper-Fox]

This music reminds me of a simpler time. One that is respectful of its elders and traditions. Where family is everything and people aren't cold hearted. I guess it's nothing more than a fantasy but still. I wish every day for a simpler life.

[@KotushkFier666]

So glad I found your channel... This music is simply wondrous. Thank you for sharing.

[@KotushkFier666]

This kind of music is the only thing to evoke full emotion from me... Such as now, crying for the first time in years...

A monk and a girl Can be seen hang once every week People have speculation, they secretly a couple But they are wrong, but also right They both knew they can't be a lover But, somehow they can't stay away from one another Is like a mystery force pulling them to each other They hang out each week like a friends until they old age In their next life, they became a couple and have so much love for one another

Hello TaiGekTou, i really love your videos with the beautiful beautiful chinese music. They are so relaxing and so georgoues. At the same time they are amazing and just listen to it, i sometimes feel i can forget the whole world around me and sometimes the music is so touching and sad (but kinda in the good way, i hope you know whta i mean) that i can really just let go and be sad. Thank you so much. Would you please tell me and i think other viewers want to know either, where do you get the pictures from ? :) I just really love the culture of japan, china and korea. Thank you so much :) Ps: It also helps really to listen to this music and read the amazing book of arthur golen `memoirs of a geisha :)

[@TaiGekTou]

Thank you so much for your kind words Matias Gomes! I know exactly what you mean too, I'm really honored to hear that you like the culture in East Asia. I have many different sources where I get these pictures from, and they're usually not all in one place, but the theme I use is almost always the word 古風 which literally means "ancient air". The link below is one source I get some of the pictures from, you may try and open the link. Someone people have told me of their trouble opening links to websites in Chinese due to their location, if you can't open it you may let me know and I'll try to link you to a different source. It is a forum post but there will be a high number of images. bbs.vip.qq.com/t-204065-1.htm

[@TaiGekTou]

Thanks Taliet! I get these music from a few Chinese music/video sharing websites that I frequent, many of these are mainly from 5sing.kugou.com, where a talented community would share their beautifully made music and even make them easily downloadable, but to find really good ones is quite difficult as almost all of them weren't produced by professional companies or that sort of thing. A few others would come from more obscure sources and no artists were associated with them, which is really unfortunate in my opinion.
