How does your light shine? Regardless of religious beliefs, I love the philosophy that WE, as human beings, emit light. The light shines brighter depending on how we interact with others, avoiding trappings that dim your light, such as envy, ego, or fear.
A person’s light shines bright when they treat others with respect, compassion, and kindness. Such was the spiritual philosophy that inspired “Shambala,” a song that became the 8th, Top 5 hit record for Three Dog Night in 1973: Three Dog Night were brilliant interpreters. Cory Wells, Danny Hutton, and Chuck Negron had a unique gift for identifying a diamond in the rough, an obscure song that had either flopped, or was completely passed over, and spin it into gold.
The trio did it over and over during their domination of the pop singles chart from ’69 through ’74 outselling almost every artist in those years including the Beatles. A quick recap…Some of the most successful Three Dog Night adaptations were “One” by Harry Nilsson, who wrote the song shortly after he quit his job as a computer operator at a bank: “Mama Told Me Not to Come” by another relative unknown writer at the time named Randy Newman that was revamped into a #1 single in ’70: Of course, They reimagined folk singer Hoyt Aston’s tune “Joy To the World” and took that to #1 in ’71: And after several others, Three Dog Night did it again in ‘73, with an inspired rendition of Daniel Miller’s composition “Shambala.”
For Daniel Moore, the road to writing “Shambala” began during a phone conversation with his brother, Matthew Moore. Matthew called Daniel to tell him about an interesting revelation that was bestowed upon him in a letter sent to him by a spiritual advisor named Dorothy Beg. In the letter, which was a response to a query that Matthew had sent to the mystic, Dorothy wrote about reincarnation and revealed to Matthew who he had been in his past lives. The letter ended with a cryptic passage…”Let your light shine in the halls of Shambala.” After reading the passage to his brother, Matthew asked incredulously, “Shambala?
