 beautiful... April 15, 2005

i love this cd, track 15 prabhujee is gorgeous! you can listen to it on repeat and just melt,
the translation is:
"Oh Master, show some compassion on me. Please come and dwell in my heart because without you, it is painfully lonely. Fill this empty pot with nectar of love. I do not know any Tantra, Mantra or ritualistic worship. I know and believe only in you. I have been searching for you all over the world. Please come and hold my hand now."
Best one on vedic chants. February 4, 2000

The chants sung in genuine vedic style and with the clearest, authentic sanskrit pronounciation and embellished by the masterly touch of Legendary Pandit Ravi Shankar create an atmosphere that can only be felt; can't be described. All the chants are universal in appeal. Each of them echoes the highest human thoughts and aspirations since the vedic times. A must buy for anybody intersted in Indian spiritual thought. It is for everyone, everywhere.

This is a very great album that has very soothing music. It combines powers of Great Hindu chants and the power of Pandit Ravi Shankar's Musical talent. The ultimate Music one should listen to daily atleast once in the early morning hours and you feel the real peace of mind and soul. Thanks to all those who contributed to this great effort.
 this cd is for ex-hippy newagers. September 24, 2000

This cd was the first cd in the genre of subcontinental indian music i ever got, as a deal from bmg music club. i got the cd for two dollars, and i still don't think it was a terribly good buy. Fortunately, i have many friends who are from india or have lived there part of their lives who showed me real indian music, not this mushy stuff, with its elements of western music. mixing indian music and western music is a bad idea. get some traditional indian music, whether you want to hear good indian music, or just trip out on shrooms. get some zakir hussein or something.

This is not a Sitar album, so don't expect it. It is a good introduction to many of Hindu India's most popular chants. They keep the simplicity of the original and mood of the chants, while adding enough instrumentation to make them interesting for listeners. I am less enthusiastic, however, then some of the reviewers. In some ways, the album is betwixt and between. It neither has the depth of traditional but ancient renditions of these chants, nor the creativity and interest of cutting edge world music or asian underground. In the end, Ravi Shankar is a master, so any album he produces is worth the listen.
