It was your right as a person.In terms of warriorship,you had to stand up and do what was right,what you were born to do…… In warriorship you have to be very present,very aware of where you are,where you’ve been and where you’re going. Part of what a warrior does,the compassion and generosity of warriorship,is to get the door open and hold it open for other people to come through.That means the warrior is often out there alone. Sometimes the door closes behind you and you don’t know it happened.Then you have to stop,put the guitar down,go back and get a wedge,and get the door open again,so..people can hear the music. You can’t be afraid,no matter what’s going on.” Taj Mahal Autobiography of A Bluesman”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Taj Mahal" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/taj-mahal/i-apply-the-warrior-energy-to-the-blues-by-tapping-into-the-ancient/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6c1/taj-mahal-96985_blues_i-apply-the-warrior-energy-to-the-blues_81309.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6c1/taj-mahal-96985_blues_i-apply-the-warrior-energy-to-the-blues_81309.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6c1/taj-mahal-96985_blues_i-apply-the-warrior-energy-to-the-blues_81309.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“I apply the warrior energy to the blues by tapping into the ancient job of the griot class.That wasn’t a job…” — Taj Mahal", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“We return to you, O earth, the things which you have given us willingly and most graciously; with our hearts, hands and minds, in the best way we know how.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Taj Mahal" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/taj-mahal/we-return-to-you-o-earth-the-things-which-you-have-given-us-willingly/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/b8c/taj-mahal-96985_mother-earth_we-return-to-you-o-earth-the-things-whic_1604374.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/b8c/taj-mahal-96985_mother-earth_we-return-to-you-o-earth-the-things-whic_1604374.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/b8c/taj-mahal-96985_mother-earth_we-return-to-you-o-earth-the-things-whic_1604374.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“We return to you, O earth, the things which you have given us willingly and most graciously; with our…” — Taj Mahal", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/taj-mahal/#person", "name": "Taj Mahal", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/taj-mahal/", "description": "The Taj Mahal is an ivory-white marble mausoleum on the right bank of the river Yamuna in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India.
