MARIA MANGO: North Star Road

InfluencesAMMA, being in love with everyone and everything, music as medicine, magic, and meditation, honesty, freedom, traveling, the many amazing friends and beautiful random strangers i've met along the way, being here now, busking, dancing, life and all its joys and sorrows, inner peace, sharing songs and ideas at open mics, Burning Man, rainbow family, natural sustainable living, The Mayan Calendar, comm-unity, late night campfire jams, the birds singing in the morning, being in love, the wind blowing through the trees, nature, rainbows, mangos, sunshine, 4:20, long Manitoba winters (good for staying inside and working on creative projects!) yoga, tai chi, organic vegetarian and raw foods, health, harmony, herbs and healing, the wise ancient redwoods, children, the ocean, friends, family, unity, unconditional love, and the Tao!

Musically, Mary Lou Lord, Greg Brown, Melanie Safka, Nate Stevens, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Human, Bob Dylan, Madonna, Cat Stevens, The Beatles, Janis Joplin, Woody Guthrie, Dan Frechette, Joni Mitchell, Ani Difranco, Ember Swift, Stevie Wonder, Richard Thompson, Jason Webley, Joan Baez, Signe Knutson, Iris Eve, Roldo, Utah Phillips, Fraser & Debolt, Steve Schellenberg, Neil Young, Blind Melon, Elliott Smith, Beck, Nirvana, Shimshai, Hayden, George Harrison, Adrian Avocado, Brett Dennen, Jack Johnson, Bob Marley, The Grateful Dead, Sandy Denny, Leonard Cohen, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash & June Carter, John Lennon & Yoko Ono...

Sounds Like

"Maria is a living, breathing embodiment of the best ideals of the hippie generation. Born several decades too late to be part of the original Summer of Love, she nevertheless took up the tattered psychedelic banner of the flower children, and carries it with love and affection. Whether busking on the Haight, performing in Hawaiian clubs, or serenading Burners on the Playa, she poses the same question eloquently asked by another musician -- "What's so funny about peace, love and understanding?" -- and shows us all that one can live with grace, beauty, and positive energy in a broken world." ~Michael Marinacci

“Maria Mango has shown us that we can enjoy life and the abundance of mother earth through love, compassion and sharing. So rare are those in today’s sea of humanity to give us such beauty and joy in music laced deeply with unconditional love. Maria Mango is a wonderous blessing." ~James Beckett

“Maria Mango is a shining star. Everytime I have been in her presence she has such a big glowing smile on her face. Her songs are so fun & full of inspiration and truth. We need more free spirited people like her around.” ~Manaka

"She is a butterfly made of colorful Light and she beams many rays of delight. She is eternal like Love, Living in the Now. She is as playful as a child and wise like an ancient tree. She is a living example of Joy and Gratitude is her lifestyle. She deciphers what the birds sing about, on each and every music album she creates. She is a Soul Sister of humanity. . . . and I Love her dearly." ~Gemini

"The moon has become a dancer at this festival of love. This dance of light, this sacred blessing, this divine love beckons us to a world beyond, that only lovers can see with their eyes of fiery passion. They are the chosen ones who have surrendered. Once they were particles of light, now they are the radiant sun. They have left behind the world of deceitful games. They are the privileged lovers who create new worlds with their eyes of fiery passion." ~Rumi

CURRENT MOON

"Maria Mango is a light!!! She is a walking mango colored love light! So bright like a beautiful sunset, only nicer and more entertaining, (she can play all night, lets see the sun do that!) I am wholly sure that great things are in her future as well as her past and present." ~Glass blower Dan

"Sweetness in light, beauty takes flight on the wings of an angeldove, singing sweetly of the things we only know in dreams, through her song she brings the dream to life....spirit filled bliss baby, bringing the life back to me, caught me in the winter of my life, the vibrant rays of her song piercing through the haze of self-defeat, causing my heart to flutter and skip a beat....radiant queen of the ONE domain, shining her light so we all can see that we truly are the SAME soul, wrapped in myriad colors weaving together this fine day in the nowness of eternity!!"
~Nate Stevens

"I know you are one of the coolest human beings in existence, Maria. Your love emanates from Source, awakening us to the truth that is everyone and everything. May your radiance fill the universe!" ~E. T. Nada

"In the end, love is the only medicine that can heal the wounds of the world. In this universe, it is love that binds everything together. Love is the very foundation, beauty, and fulfillment of life. If we dive deep enough into ourselves, we will find that the one thread of universal love ties all beings together. As this awareness dawns within us, all disharmony will cease. Abiding peace alone will reign!" ~Amma

“We could say that meditation doesn't have a reason or doesn't have a purpose. In this respect it's unlike almost all other things we do except perhaps making music and dancing. When we make music we don't do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If that were the purpose of music then obviously the fastest players would be the best. Also, when we are dancing we are not aiming to arrive at a particular place on the floor as in a journey. When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point. And exactly the same thing is true in meditation. Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.”
~Alan Watts

   About Maria Mango

"If someone thinks that love and peace is a cliché that must have been left behind in the Sixties, that's his problem. Love and peace are eternal." - John Lennon



..



Maria Mango is truly an artist at life. A seasoned traveler and street performer, she carries with her little more than a ukulele and a smile, singing her sweet tunes of unity and love on sidewalks and in subways, in cafes and around campfires. When one listens to her sing, it becomes easy to believe a better world is possible through the simple kindness of the human heart.

Maria's music has a message of peace and unconditional love that is timeless and universal. Her songs are simple and upbeat with singalong choruses that make everyone feel like a part of it all. She has the ability to bring the intimacy of a campfire to any venue she plays. Her songs have the power to inspire community, to heal hearts, and soothe souls. If you see her busking on a street corner sometime, stick around for a song or two, she's sure to make you smile!

Sangit means music -- divine music. Music comes closest to meditation. Just beyond music is meditation: one step more and you are in meditation. And music is the most beautiful door. Listen to music so totally that the listener disappears in the listening, that there is only music and you are not, that you are an emptiness and the music fills you. There is no observer even, nobody to appreciate, to judge. Listen to music without judgement, without evaluation, and it will become your deepest meditation. Then any music will do. Slowly slowly you will come to the knack of listening. Then any sound will do, mm? -- just this sound of the train passing by is enough to create silence, because sound is one polarity; silence is the other polarity of the same energy. If you know how to listen rightly, each sound can create silence. Just as light and darkness are together, sound and silence are together; they cannot be separate. It is one energy -- they are two aspects of it. So if somebody learns how to listen rightly, each sound provokes silence in you. That's the beauty of music. In first listening to it you will become aware of this tremendous phenomenon, that in listening you become silent. Then you can try with other sounds slowly slowly, and then one day suddenly, standing in the marketplace, all the noise is around you and you are so silent -- the centre of the cyclone. And that is my message to my sannyasins: they have to be silent in the very storm of existence and life. They have to meditate in the marketplace; they have not to become escapists. They have to transform their lives, and transformation needs the challenge of the opposite. ~OSHO

When all the people in the world
love one another, then the strong
will not overpower the weak,
the many will not oppress
the few, the wealthy will not mock
the poor, the honored will not disdain
the humble, and the cunning will not
 deceive the simple.

~Mo Tzu (463-401 BC)



Have we learned anything in all these years?!

Love & Light,
