Extremely good listening

"I bought this kind of on an impulse, as I have a fondness for "chants" of all sorts, and I was definitely not disappointed.



Caitlin has a lovely voice, and the arrangements of these traditional sacred chants (mostly Hindu/Sanskrit, but also one from the Sufi tradition and some that are Buddhist) are very well done. Great entertainment.



I don't honestly know if everyone will experience some sort of spiritual benefit or healing as a result of listening to these chants, but the artist says she has, and I can report that I have, as well. It was also pretty amazing to wake up one morning and realising that I had been singing "Om Mani Padme Hum" in my sleep, or at least that it came to my consciousness as soon as I woke up!



If you're in any way a fan of chants or world music, you'll almost certainly love this CD. I'm so glad I followed my intuition on this one."
