1. The Lark Ascending
"Mind is a spacious as the clear blue sky. Thoughts pass by like clouds, drifting through the sky of pure mind. I can identify with the vastness of the sky, rather than the clouds. While the clouds are ever changing, the sky of pure mind is eternal, creative, wise, peaceful and connected to all that is. I am rising on the wings of the soul, like a lark ascending."

2. Berceuse, Opus 116
