I wanna say thank you for all the amazing songs you and the other DJs have been playing. This year has been incredibly hard on my mental health, to the point I felt lost. A few months ago I started practicing Buddhism techniques to help with everything and it improved my mental health drastically. Along with that and the positive vibes you guys put out everyday, makes me happy to be here in this time, listening to amazing people. I would like to dedicate the song Bodhisattva Vow by the Beastie Boys to my fellow Buddhists, practicing Buddhism, and to anyone who needs some positivity today. Much love.\n--\nThe song, featuring chanting monks, was driven primarily by the late Beastie Boy Adam Yauch (MCA). As a practicing Buddhist, he had taken the Bodhisattva vow, which is a promise to liberate all sentient beings from suffering by practicing the six perfections of giving, moral discipline, patience, effort, concentration, and wisdom.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
