Moody Blues - The Word is OM

[@garygraham4679]

The Moodies were truly unique, with or without acid.

[@TheTimananda]

still are touring, though not performing this song that I know

[@mustangmikep51]

having experienced both..i feel now its better without the drug...you only have to do acid once..thats enough...then move on to more natural methods of getting "HIGH" LUV n LIGHT!

[@KikisMor]

My day beginneth and endeth with OM, all these many decades...the Creator within all smiles. ♥

[@0rand]

After all these years it just keeps getting better.

[@mustangmikep51]

and better.+ better..this is the blossom time foretold of 2k years ago..enjoy the trip..its why u were born

[@gerhardherzig63]

The best Group ever

[@rogerlamunion4828]

right on

[@shaunashaw1429]

Yes agreed

[@davidu.1901]

The song speaks to the universal truths of Buddhism, TM, Christianity. We are called to peace, harmony and our realistic image of ourselves as really small parts of a big picture - humility. Consider the lilies , be still and know the sublime and to give it a word is important to some Om

[@tonyrock5313]

Life is precious you only have one. Live it to the fullest OM.

[@mustangmikep51]

we actually have many,but i get your point namaste.

[@acapulcoramon7601]

with this beautiful song my love for sitar music began. thank you moody blues......for all of your music.

[@Ryan_hey]

just found this song and this band today and let me tell, I am damn glad I did.

[@victorcrocco701]

you just discovered Angelic communication for the primate man from the Choir of the Angels. I listen to the Angels of Heaven very closely.

[@Thundergod-]

I bought this album when barely a teen in the '60s. I knew if I was having a bad day I could go home and have solitude in my room with this inspiring music. Back then I knew very little of TM but I now know The Moodys were into it pretty deep as evidenced by this monumental album. Now I can listen to this and get totally immersed into the universe. What a gift they have given us....

[@dancha1593]

In the eyes of a child you will see. RIP Ray Thomas. Thank you Moody Blues...

[@ZPolaris]

Ommmmmmmm Ommmmmmmmm Heaven! OOOOOOMMMMMMM. This is the sound of the mental plane which is the top of the psychic/spiritual worlds of duality of the lower worlds of time space and matter. This is source of pure thought and cosmic consciousness, It is believe that Jesus and many other ascended masters reside on. This is not a distance place far off some where but a higher dimension of reality which is all around and within us all. For Heaven is not place but a state of being within.

[@rockmegently4410]

You're cool!

[@davidranger13]

[@jessroat2199]

Great! thank you. Loved the closing comment in your video- Let yourself be silently led by the sacred pull of what you really love. Aum.

[@GuppyCzar]

RIP Ray Thomas :'(

[@mookins45]

'Ray Thomas Isn't Dead'

[@MrStuVW]

Eternal Music and words, wisdom sounds Beautiful to me. Thank You Moody Blues and SacredMojo for This LOVE

[@hermenutic]

loved the art concept that went with this most wonderful song. I've enjoyed this album since 1969 or 1970. Thanks for sharing.

[@dominiccarpin5651]

I've always loved this song. It's finally raining in Beaverdam!

[@tomsickler998]

the entire universe is vibrating all around thanks gurudev and mother divine and moody blues

[@nevaron7]

Beautiful morning meditation...Thank you Moody Blues..

[@billlear4562]

Sweet! Obscure track. Thanks!

[@victorcrocco701]

great vocal exercise at the end they go up three scales in perfect harmony no wonder they are the Choir of the Angels. The kinesiology of the vocal chords is perfectly heard and can be used to strengthen your kinesiology of vocal chords if you practice this every day. It takes a long time and a lot of work

[@Cryo837]

This song has a beautiful majesty about it. Love it!!!

[@marucasar5805]

OMG THIS VIDEO IS FANTASTIC .ADVANCED GEOMETRY .WHAT AN ANIMATION .AMAZIG. TKS FOR SHARING. HELLO FROM MEXICO

[@robertyount-b1l]

i follow yoga/meditation and the tunes of the moodies.... sounds are so important and the moodies did a perfect tune on this one... bob

[@leecurran4331]

happy,happy memories. thank you.

[@godbluffvdgg]

The first sound of the galaxy...OM. Its' vibration created infinity. The first thing ever created --infinity.

[@bobojenkins88]

An old video shows Justin H. playing the sitar! Amazing song!

[@TheTimananda]

Mojo, this is one of the best videos on KZbin; certainly one of the best of this song with the world crashing around us almost everyday, this is what is needed to help us remain sane in the face of increasing negativity dhanyavaad

[@mwmann]

I was retarded at the beginning of this song when I first heard it on my quadraphonic Kenwood system many moons ago. By the end of this tune, my retardation had completely dissipated. I was restored ! Hallelujah !

[@MrTcroker]

hello moody blues wev'e idolised you guys for ages .We did LSD for weekends in the 70's. Now i'm a grandfather. you opended our eyes,, Your music is the greatest in the universe.You are the best!

[@superorangeish]

Currently my favorite Moody Blues LP(it changes).. It's funny how other bands records just don't sound that good after listening to the Moody's albums! Great album. This one is a bit trippy, ode to Timothy Leary maybe??

[@ChipMarine]

"I know why the skys all cry" !

[@dimethaltryptamine1]

people this was originally released in quadraphonic,those who didn't hear it as it was intended do not understand what they missed as to envision it in Quadro on acid is beyond words for description,especially through a reel to reel with Acustic Research vacuum sealed speakers mindblowing is a shallow description. :)

[@chrgrbltz]

When we were teenagers my brother's & I were actually able to hook-up 4 stereo speakers when my oldest brother got the 1st released Quad.album. The acoustics were simply amazing...

[@vajrapani6474]

***** Nothing compares to making samyama with the bij, OM ... all you need is your mind.

[@g.stephens263]

+dimethaltryptamine1 Or, through early Dynaco electronics and Voice of the Theater speakers....ye gawds, those huge woofers!

[@silverbirdsong]

+dimethaltryptamine1 Yes!!

[@akeeperofoddknowledge4956]

I had a modest quad system back in the day, and had this on 8 track! Cheap, but still mind blowing.

[@SweetThing]

Keep on Rockin' in Heaven, Ray. You will always be the ultimate, Veteran Cosmic Rocker!

[@tom080955]

One of my favourite songs

[@doyleperkins4916]

BETWEEN THE EYES AND EARS THERE LIES THE SOUND OF COLOR...AND THEY GIVE IT A WORD, AND THE WORD IS OM...

[@jellyjukebox]

I discovered this video is best experienced with 3D glasses on! For me this is one of the greatest albums ever, love the Moodys.

[@honestyforever1964]

It's my heartbeat.... listen.... my heartbeat......

[@frankfleming6453]

LyricsThis garden universe vibrates complete Some may get a sound so sweet Vibrations reach on up to become light And then through gamma, out of sight Between the eyes and ears there lie The sounds of color and the light of a sigh And to hear the sun, what a thing to believe But it's all around if we could but perceive To know ultra violet, infra-red and X-rays Beauty to find in so many ways Two notes of the chord, that's our full scope But to reach the chord is our life's hope And to name the chord is important to some So they give a word and the word is Om

[@neilmill2743]

Great track for unwinding too, transendental meditation if you like...reformed hippy

[@TheTimananda]

who is still touring !!

[@johnnykawakid]

ooohh yes another moodies classic

[@richardmcginnis5344]

they're all classic

[@johnnykawakid]

agreed, great band one of my fav, if not my fav,

[@roberttaylor90y76]

A top album

[@jellyjukebox]

"This garden universe, vibrates complete, and to hear the sun, what a thing to believe, but it's all around if we could but percieve, to reach the chord is our life's hope". Those particular english voices from my youth still ring so familiar, bless the Moodys.

[@eric5906]

I so dig this. Hare Krishna Hare Rama. Jaya Srila Narayana Maharaja!

[@robertyount313]

i am going to agree with gary graham to the word and that is om, they are unique both with and without acid!!!!!!!

[@Thundergod-]

You can really hear The Beatle's influence on this one, especially Justin on the sitar. George introduced Indian music to the western world along with Ravi Shankar and The Moodys put their unique spin on it....

[@brucegrover8079]

life's hope

[@davidplumer8766]

rickfaw, That is maybe the best description of a Moody Blues album/concert I've ever heard! Well said!!!

[@jamessomying]

Fantastic. Thanks.....

[@davidfaubion]

@SenorSpode Dito and mega kudos for expressing it -- Now I see that consciousness came to this point in the baby boom gen after the most horrific war the world ever knew -- that awareness and light gives us the tools to transform the world into a place in which our predecessors can thrive and enjoy. So, our light bears us a great responsibility: give light back to the world, the heart, for ALL of our children’s children’s... Moodies keep their song of light alive; other songs live on in heart.

[@dayspring35]

I remember a free concert they put on behind Dodger Stadium in the early 70's. Also saw them at Madison Square Garden. They were one of my favorites.........

[@p1mpernel]

Lovely!

[@martintray6473]

just awsome

[@victorcrocco701]

Thank you.

[@af1966]

When I hear the vocals in this song I get goosebumps.

[@Enekobus]

Wow this is amazing. I never heard this song before.

[@IRISH16GYPSY]

This is thought of as ONE, and it IS, but it is actually 2 numbers off the album; the spoken poem 'The Word' and the following song 'OM' which it flows into, a common tactic on concept albums, a genre these guys poineered and mastered.

[@ozzymandi]

Peace. Lovely video too.

[@sentimentaljourneyproductions]

This is amazing to hear this today..I had just sent a message to a dear friend, TigersAtPlay and, I used the word OM in our conversation..and then, you sent this..how cool and connected is that..yeah, I am weird/different like dat..thank you so much for the Moody Blues Classic!! 5*S for sure...

Trecky that I am, the poem makes me think of Geordi LaForge's "VISOR Vision". Awesome song at any rate. I've always loved it.

[@dande1too]

reminds me of my just over 22 days and oh those were the days.....even had a band in town that for the money closely sounded like the MB, but nothing like the real thing. Saw MB at Fair Park, Dallas TX

[@coloradream]

GREAT video... Love the effects...very cool! Peace and hugs, Dave

yes i am going to agree with thunder good that i followed what harrison did and ravi and daughter anousca shankar... yoga and medithation for ever. bob

Humbly and respectfully take some really good LSD and listen to the Moody Blues for a New understanding of these incredible in tune lads on this Earth! They were WAY in Tune with their time!

[@tedhoare1602]

Bom Shankar and thank you love is bliss

[@victorcrocco701]

Try hitting some of those notes the Moodies are hitting in the last part of this song. I bet no one can do it without cracking?

I can play this on sitar. It's really bloody awesome.

That energy field can be called God, soul, spirit, or consciousness. It looks a certain way, sounds a certain way, and feels a certain way.

The symbol for OM is ॐ in Devnagari script. It's the most sacred symbol in Hinduism. The sound has four parts to it -- aa, oo, mmm, and the fourth part is the silence that follows. The wiki says, "It is the most sacred syllable symbol and mantra of Brahman, the highest Universal Principle, the Ultimate Reality in Hinduism. Om connotes the metaphysical concept of Brahman in Hinduism. The syllable is often chanted either independently or before a mantra; it signifies the Brahman as the ultimate reality, consciousness or Atma. The Om sound is the primordial sound and is called the Shabda-Brahman (Brahman as sound). In Hinduism, Om is one of the most important spiritual sounds.
