Description

NEW RELEASE KIRTAN/YOGA CHANT CD!
From the producers of the largest independent and ongoing kirtan scene in the US, this kirtan CD offers beautiful vocals, a sea of chanters, and rich world instrumentation that bring to life the mantras of India. Following their award-winning CD, Best of Both Worlds (Kirtan Caf, Vol. I), Ancient Spirit (Kirtan Caf, Vol. II) captures listeners with its full-length, richly woven kirtan songs (yoga chants). Based upon the sacred kirtan chants of India, this Ancient Spirit CD was released as a tribute to Sri Swami Rama of the Himalayas.

CD sponsored in part by: www.MargaretAnnsPlace.com, a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving the distinctive needs of grieving children.

"Though it involves music, the ancient practice of kirtan is not about musical ability or training, it is about the heart. These ancient mantras from India contain powerful renewing and transformational energies that serve to reconnect us to the Eternal Being that lies within us all. All the mantras, melodies, and instruments are designed to lead us toward this meditative state... Kirtan has an organizing effect on the mind and body, and it offers a means of finding our way back to the core of our being, to our heart, and to the divine.
- Ragani (copyrighted text excerpt from www.RaganiWorld.com)

"Ragani, who has grown to become one of the nation's leading kirtan chanters, proves her worth with this exquisite collection of mantras a wonderful atmosphere for spiritual journeys and growth.
