about

Featuring two of the most used Kundalini Mantras: 'Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo' and 'Sa Ta Na Ma' each followed by two meditative flute pieces on the CD.

The Sa Ta Na Ma meditation has certain time lengths for singing the Mantra, then whispering, then mentally reciting it, returning to whispering and then singing it again to finish. While I was practicing the Mantra I got frustrated and felt distracted trying to keep track of the time for each section, so I decided to make a sequence that would change the sound at the right times as a cue. I made cassettes (remember them?) for the rest of the class and gave them out if people were interested. They all really loved having the cues from the sound changing and the rhythms and instruments I used to accompany the Mantra so I kept refining the sequence when I had the inspiration. Later, I was honored to have my Kundalini Instructor Deva Kaur Khalsa come to the studio and sing with me on the final recorded version you will hear. Like my CD 'bamboo dynasty' when I decided to go into the recording studio, I took out a lot of the synth from the sequence and replaced those parts with live instruments.
