Kirtan: The Art and Practice of Ecstatic Chantby Jai UttalThe Sanskrit words that we sing in these Kirtans are mantras, or divine names. A mantra can be thought of as a sonic embodiment of the supreme being who, through grace, takes infinite recognizable forms. When touched by the blessings of an enlghtened master or the longing of a pure heart, these mantras become fully alive and have the power to carry us back to the One, the universal heart. These ancient words hold within them the very presence of the deity; they are prayer, they are vessels for our prayer, and they are the One to whom we are praying. |

Language of Loveby Craig PruessThe Kama Sutra details not only sexual techniques, but also love, courting practices and the appropriate manner in which marriage partners should act. Language of Love is entended as an enhancement to the central premise of the Kama Sutra, namely to transmute the energy of sexual union into a sensation of oneness, ecstasy and ultimate fulfillment. This one hour of music - all based on ancient Indian Ragas - mirrors a Tantric love session in its intimate ebb and flow. |

Light & Spiritby Hans ChristianThe compositions on this CD were originally written during the renaissance period by composers from France, England, Ireland, Netherlands, and Germany; all of them had direct or indirect links to Italian masters who developed the style of Madrigals during the 15th and 16th century.

Love is Spaceby Deva PremalIn response to the question of what title to give the album, Deva Premal's response was this - "Many came and went, but none really said what I wanted to say, until one day I got it: Love Is Space!!...and now it has become my personal mantra, reminding me that Love has no borders and no boundaries.... it even includes the things I don't like!...that Love is all and all is Love.

Mystic Indiaby Various ArtistsThe ancient music of India needs not only training for the musician, it needs immense training for the listener.

Namasteby NamasteFor Hindus and now for many others as well, the greeting of choice is namaste, the two hands pressed together and held near the heart with the head gently bowed as one says, "namaste". "I bow to you." This also acts like a simple yogic asana, harmonizing our energies, keeping us centered, inwardly poised and mentally protected. The music here feels like an extended experience of the peace in that greeting. |
