Tenno admired the smiling Bodhisattvas, looked up at the floating pagodas and took in the vegetation and waterfalls. With the message from the ancient manuscript in mind, he sat down by the glistening bonzai tree, laid down his sword in front of him and crossed his legs. Facing the sakura trees, Tenno entered into his own thoughts. Could he make his mind a temple? Slowly, the nomad recentered his focus onto the breath - the rising and falling sensation of his stomach. With deep breaths, the thoughts and regrets of the past faded into the distance. Tenno felt at peace. Turning his focus outwards, he connected to the surrounding nature. The wind passed from right to left. Falling leaves settled on his lap. Dragonflies hovered above. Time passed. Opening his eyes, Tenno was once again greeted by the floating pagodas under the blue sky. With his view obscured by the misty haze, the young nomad needed to reach the viewpoint from the highest pagoda. Gracefully traversing the floating structures, Tenno soon reached the peak. Adjacent to the pagoda was an ancient shrine. He prayed for guidance there, twice clapping together his hands and bowing, before ringing the bell. It was there Tenno began to understand the wisdom of the ancient manuscript. The way of the mind was different to the way of the sword. Mastery over thoughts is attained through letting go, without filtering or labelling them. Thus the conscious and subconscious mind works as one and harmony is achieved. Newfound wisdom aside, Tenno drew one last deep breath and embarked on the next stage of his adventure. Hope this augments the experience of listening to this beautiful Album. Thanks Tenno :)
Wooow man! This is amazing! Thank you so much for coming up with this story and sharing with us. I really enjoyed reading it, so detailed and beautiful
Tenno you writing is sincere and very beautiful. It really paints a vivid picture of what "mind temple" is all about and attaching a story to it, while listening and viewing the background of the sumaria warrior placed in the center. .really brings about an abundant expression of the message you trying to convey as an author towards these beautiful chime's that land on our ears. It seems like your not just a creative with regards to music, but a creative with regards to literature, figurative expressions. . .the story that you told. . was more poetic than literal. . .and you stretched the boundaries, beyond boundaries with your expressed imagination. I hope you can eventually do this with every album you create. . I see huge potential as writer/poet.. .and I hope you are registering this. . . . art piece of words . . .as your very own intellectual property rights. . . cause reading it. . .transcended my mind into another subconscious within my consciousness. . .your work. . .was a well-crafted manuscript that could be found in a pogoda. . .only intended/understood for those. . .whom are amongst the most discrete philosophical minds . . of this realm.
yes, his music gives me so incredibly much nostalgia, memories and hope. When I don't know what to do then I just come back to tenno's music because I will know the way after listening to it thank you tenno, I didn't come back here for a few months, but now i realised how important your music was to me, I'll always keep suporting you!
This is probably my 136th time listening through this album, and it's still as beatitful as when I first listened to it. Thank you for this masterpiece, Tenno
@@TennoMusic As my Healer told me last Friday: "Do not think of it as 'deep.' It is right here, right now-right at your fingertips. You are more powerful than you imagine." Trust the Self. 🌱🙏🏼🌱 We cannot be defeated. 💪⛰️💪
I already commented here once 3 months ago, and now, see what I said was true, when I come here, I feel home and i feel peace and I feel direction, thank you, I can't say it enough times, I'm so thankful for your music and the worlds and dreams it created for me
Ladies and gentlemen, guess who's back? That's right, its the Master Composer, the Maestro of Music himself TENNO. Great to see you again buddy! And as always, thanks for the epic music!!! 😁😍
Recently found one of your songs on Spotify in a LoFi playlist - had to check out your albums and other songs, and man, from that day I can't get enough of your music! Super thanks for your work Tenno, and Merry Christmas!
In the middle of making an indie game and this album fits perfectly with the theme and helps set the feel of the environment so much. Its a shame i cant use any of the music.
This full album comes at the right time to keep my mind sane. Thank you so much for the hard work you've put into this full album. I honestly love all the tracks 😭😭 It's so healing and peaceful ... So HAPPY !!! ❤🥰
I love sitting and singing, improvising together with your music, and I'm constantly positively surprised when what I thought was just my own brain turns out to already be part of the song... It's been a month and I just discovered this again among my pinned tabs. Poggers. 😸
I'm listening to this as i'm doing my homework! This is just Simply some of the best music I have EVER heard in my life! Thank You Tenno for creating a MASTERPIECE!
This magnificent beats of lo-fi with oriental culture elements touched me since the first track that I've listened of your work! Then, I've discovered other great artists that develop some kind of work relatively similar of yours, like Raimu, and I am glad that your work have reached me, Cheers from Brazil !
Thanks for uploading this! this may probably be the _weirdest comment_ you ever got but I had a strange paranormal experience at home (not fun at all) but this here is helping me feel a bit more calmer, thank you! I appreciate it a ton!!
I am a musician from jazz and rock background and yet I prefer Tenno for being personally fulfilling music, I love the artwork too, these works are like a journey , keep it up for all your reasons and for me too:)
sim, por incrível que pareça, essa foi a segunda "música" que você me recomendou, apesar de ser um album, é algo que eu duvido que você conseguiria lembrar, eu não lembrava, é algo bem interessante ver nossas conversas antigas, o começo de uma ligação que hoje é tão forte, esse álbum definitivamente representa a minha paz que encontro em você
Today I have receive your Vinyle and I discovery it with the same enthusiam than the first time I listen it on RU-vid. Plus it's my first Vinyle so it's a pleasure for me than you're the first on to test my turntable. Thanks to you Tenno. Love for France. ❤️
Really? That's so cool, I thought the vinyl would ship in January but it came much earlier! I still haven't even seen it haha. I'm glad you're enjoying it, thank you for supporting me and grabbing a copy of the vinyl ❤️🙏
Tenno really got me into this genre of Japanese Lo-Fi. His actually my Favorite Lo-Fi Producer and Mind Temple is an album i hold the most dear out of all of his other Albums which are also really great. Mind Temple gave me courage in 2022 and took me right through my Law exams and ensured my success because when the chymes hit my ear drum . . its like soulfood for the brain. . .it helps me stay focused. . helps me reflects and find deeper realms of my Self-actualization. they way the tracks are listed. . .really does tell a story within your mind about that aspect/context which is unique to you and your imagination and guides you to reminisce on those chapters in life. . . helps me remember the important things that we take for granted due to the illusion of it appearing small and how important they are. Tenno definitely has his own playlist on my profile. . Thank you for your Intellectual Property and sharing it with the world. . .hope to have more in the future . .love from South Africa
Hi Rabbi, thank you so much for the kind words. I'm so glad this album could accompany you through law exams and could help you in a way. Means a lot to me 🙏❤️ I wish you further success!
Thanks for sharing your music. Each and everyone of them are beautiful and soul-touching. This actually came to remind me again that the harsh reality could only allow a couple of decades or so to keep my beloved parents by my side before they naturally leave me and my younger siblings. This greatly pains me. Time flies by too quickly...
I'm glad you're enjoying the album 🙏 Time flies indeed, but I think we should be living and enjoying the present moment without worrying what the future holds for us.
Seems like I'm a bit late to the party this time cause of my exams, so apologies for that haha. What can I say that hasn't been said already though? Beautiful music and a beautiful background creates something extraordinary. Loving your work as always Tenno!
This is awesome!!! I didn't think to comment, but i must say that this album is beautyfull and marvelous, this make to my work and study be more smooth, love your music my friend!! Cheers from Concepción, Chile!!!
I love this so much, it brings so much peace and tranquility, I was present as I was listening to this album, unburdened by worries and negative thoughts. One of my absolute favourite lofi albums❤️😊
Tenno and those who can feel these song with their hearts.... can feel the true essence of life and its meaning.... I hope someone .... or anyone.... can understand what i mean by that ....
Dude wow. Every song is great, and the lead in with A New Beginning is especially sublime. Thanks so much; this'll end up being my soundtrack to end of summer '22.
Yo! You did it again! Amazing music. I couldn´t comment yesterday because youtube was a bit laggy, but I was so happy when I saw that you had uploaded another masterpiece. Lovely artwork too, and an inspiring story as always. 😸
This is my favorite album by tenno I always come back to it, and i always stop to enjoy "Equanimity" definitely one of the best songs i've ever had the chance to come across!
Love your stuff man. This is by far my favorite album of yours so far. I still plan to release videos using your music for my martial arts and tai chi. Just going through a tough spot atm but I will message you when I begin. Hoping to have my first video up next month
DaniSogen, Tenno, Raimu, thebootlegboy, the lofigirl, tzi, Abao in Tokyo are some artists that I have explored in this zone and found immediate liking.
