Description
Discover the ancient healing chants of India. For millennia, the Gayatri Mantra and the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra have echoed down the banks of the holy river Ganges. These mantras express the heart's longing for peace, wisdom, and ultimate freedom from all earthly limitations, expressing the essence of every prayer.
Both mantras are chanted in the traditional Sanskrit style, accompanied by the sound of 120 tambouras. Sanskrit has a power in its very utterance to calm and purify the mind. Allow the beauty of these sacred sounds to penetrate every atom of your being, gently lifting you to a state of pure awareness.
