Mr. Altig’s Overview of the Wonderful Dharma of the Lotus Sutra

The Inspiration Behind “Seeds of Eternity”

This song began as a meditation on the quiet power of our everyday choices. Inspired by the timeless beauty of a lotus blooming or a field of wheat stretching toward the horizon, I wanted to capture the feeling that every act of kindness, no matter how small, carries infinite potential.

“Seeds of Eternity” blends bluesy country-pop melodies with poetic storytelling, carried by powerful vocals that channel the song’s spiritual heart. It’s a reflection on love, destiny, and the interconnectedness of all beings. I hope it inspires you as much as it inspired me during its creation.

[Lyrics: Verse]
Dusty roads and faded signs
We wander lost from time to time
Our actions plant a seed so small
Blossoms grow despite the fall

[Chorus]
Trust the heart in every day
What we do comes back some way
Scattered seeds in endless fields
In moments
Truth’s revealed

[Verse 2]
Through the rain and through the storm
Every choice
A quiet form
Of the love we can’t foresee
Shaping all our destiny

[Chorus]
Trust the heart in every day
What we do comes back some way
Scattered seeds in endless fields
In moments
Truth’s revealed

[Bridge]
Every glance and every touch
Whispers more than words can say
Boundless merits bloom from us
In the heart
They find their way

[Chorus]
Trust the heart in every day
What we do comes back some way
Scattered seeds in endless fields
In moments
Truth’s revealed
