Average but ok.......2007-06-20

I liked one main song, but the thing i didn't like was the fact that theres about 5 songs and the track listed as having 13 songs. Its just a repeat of the same songs. Its kind of disappointing... But the sound is great. I just wish there were more mantras on the sound track...

Great CD.......2005-08-23

This is a CD of Lama Surya Das chanting in Tibetan over Steve Halpern's beats. Don't know what to say except that if you like this kind of thing, this is an excellent CD. I have listened to it many times at home and in the car. It will put you int a meditative state listening and singing along to the chants. Love it.

Chants, not just for breakfast anymore ...........2005-05-29

This is a great cd to listen to in the car on the way to or from work or any other stressful engagement requiring chill time. Ok its got an American twist and yes Lama Surya Das is after all an American Lama. He's a gift to us all in the land of SUV's, faster cheaper better and Super sized everything.

I Love It.......2004-03-04

Track 3 (Female Buddha Tara's Mantra) and 4 (Seven Line Prayer) are my absolute favorites on this unusual & unique CD. Sure it's a bit different from the common sounds we might be accustomed to hearing in the category we are obviously pursuing here: Buddhist chants and music. But different isn't bad. Not that tradition is not good to stick to, but occasionally it is nice to hear a bright and new example of these ancient chants. I personally found this entire CD to be a terrific companion to meditation at times, and the opening track "Jewel and the Lotus Sutra" has such a wonderful rhythm to it. I mean, I don't recommend listening to music every time you sit down to meditate, but occasionally it's a nice and calming experience to be had. So here is one reviewer who is kind of amazed by all of the bad reviews this CD is getting. This CD has a "healing" effect in some senses, a trait commonly associated with mantras and Tibetan lamas. Stephen Halpern brings to the table his unique style of "healing sound" for us. Sure it has a hip-hop feel, but it's done extremely well! I hope you enjoy it and are willing to give this a try.

Chants are nice, music less so........2002-02-25

I really like the chants on this CD. Lama Surya Das' performances are nice. While I'm not blown away by the CD, I do listen to it a lot. I don't have a problem with the "Hip-Hop" beats--it's just that they're so stiff, performed by a mechanical drum machine. I actually think it's a fun idea to put the chants to "Hip-Hop" beats, it's just the execution of the music that doesn't click with me. The chants that have no drum accompanyment are definitely my favorite tracks on the CD. If you like Steven Halpern's style of music, this could be a good CD for you. If you're not into Synthy New Age music, it might be better to look elsewhere.

Settles my class down.......2007-04-06

I bought this disk to try and bring some calm energy to an otherwise hostile and negatively charged environment. I find that in playing it lowly in the background, my fifth graders are more focused and relaxed, less likely to get aggressive with one another. I imagine if you were simply sitting and listening to it, it would be boring, but it makes for soothing background noise for myself and my students.

Too sweet, Too "Produced".......2007-02-18

It should be said first of all that this is a quality recording. Clearly, the producers put a lot of work into it. This is the only reason I give it more than one star.

That said, it is the antithesis of Buddhist chant. The music is overproduced, too lush and much too saccharine. It is the audio equivalent of a big hunk of birthday cake.

Unless that's what you were hoping for, I would advise potential buyers to look elsewhere. Very disappointing.

Great for Tai Chi and Qi Gong.......2004-11-26

Songs may be long if you seat and listen to them, however if you use this CD during some activities or training you may find it excellent.

Beautiful - A Spiritual Lullaby.......2004-07-04

One of my favorite CD's. I enjoy playing this very softly while I sleep. I'd recommend it highly for anyone interesed in that, adding soft background music to a shopping place, or even playing it to relax an infant. In fact, I think it would be wonderful for that.

I never have used it for meditation as I do that in silence. I can see easily how this CD could be used for that with great success, but if like some of the others you are looking specifically for a meditation CD I'd suggest shopping around. I believe, however, that anyone who meditates would be delighted to have this music in their collection. In fact, in addition to calling it a spiritual lullaby perhaps one could call it a meditation luxury.

Excellent Meditation CD.......2004-03-14

I first heard the CD at a BiKram Yoga studio. I immediately thought it would be an excellent CD for meditation. I bought it and thoroughly enjoy it now.

Wonderful Meditative Music.......2007-05-14

This is a fantastic CD. I use it for my yoga classes.

not her best.......2005-05-09

I love Gabrielle Roth, and have worn out copies of "initiation" and "bones", but this CD just gathers dust for me insteading of making me want to dance.

Unique.......2000-05-31

Too many albums put the word "Tibetan" in the title and end up being the artificial flavor of the month. This CD, on the other hand, is the only one I've found (and I've bought dozens looking) that really bridges the gap between the Tibetan sense of sacred mystery, and the musical vernacular of the west. And with a Russian rock star no less! Listen to this album, and you will find your mind has reached a still place that other "Tibetan" music cannot touch.

For those who are addicted to the western sound "byte" culture, a five word review: YOU MUST BUY THIS ALBUM!

Great tape for yoga and meditation.......1999-07-29

We use this tape in my yoga class during the beginning centering meditation and Chen Rezi is just the most beautiful and awesomely calming piece of music I have heard. As a matter of fact I intend to use this when I am in labor, as I am expecting my third child this December. Namaste!

En"chanting" sound.......2007-02-08

I love Chloe Goodchild's voice. The chants that she selected for this CD are beautiful. This CD would be excellent for meditation, chanting circles, personal chanting, yoga, or personal enjoyment.

The only thing that was really disappointing was the few songs that are on the CD, but it is definitely worth adding to any new age collection. I gave it 4 stars because I prefer her other CD, "Fierce Wisdom" over this one, but it is still one worth owning.

Wonderful - Grows on You.......2001-05-06

This album didn't grab me the first time I played it, but I played it over and over until I learned to love it.

At first, the sense of musicality, the very faint instrumentation, and the unusual use of her voice was all too strange for my young ears, which longed to hear something more melodic and "pretty".

But I found myself continually putting the album in the CD player, sometimes absently meditating to it and sometimes finding that it made my spirit feel "thicker" or richer. It seemed that there was something genuinely enlightening in all of those meditative song/chants.

I now consider this to be one of the most powerful and important CDs in the "spiritual" section of my CD collection. I love it, and I can't believe that I once found it "unpretty". Every time I hear it now, I'm moved.

Voice Art of the Highest Caliber.......1999-06-14

The richness, range, versatility, and beauty of Goodchild's voice is stunning! Every selection is a unique gem, capable of evoking goose-flesh, smiles, or tears... or all three at once. Treat yourself to this one!

Ten years ago, Lama Jamyang Tashi Dorje founded a Buddhist Monastery in Catalonia, where many spiritually inclined individuals have since repaired to de-stress and seek healing of various sorts. It is safe to assume that they did not accomplish such while listening this bizarre opus, which can best be described as mantras meet Eurovision. Canned-sounding synths, charley-horsed programmed percussion and perkily mundane pop vocals are piled on top of choirs of chanting monks, but the modern and traditional elements not only have nothing in common but actually seem mutually antagonistic. For what it's worth, His Holiness the Dalai Lama has apparently "acknowledged the success" of the album and even congratulated the protagonists. Of course, Spain was also where Chant by the Benedictine Monks Of Santo Domingo de Silos, perhaps the most unlikely European-based international craze this side of the Macarena, originated. But the present release has more to do with Chantmania, a parody of the latter, in which the California-based Benzedrine Monks Of Santo Domonica, who are rumored to seek the divine through sleep deprivation, essayed selections like "Losing My Religion" and "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" --Christina Roden

Customer Reviews:

Wow!.......2007-06-11

When I found this album, I was enthralled within moments. The combination of Tibetan chants and all sorts of music is amazingly intriguing and a lot of fun. Now everyone I know is into it. The music and the mantras move you whether you understand the Tibetan or not.

my spirit flies to you.......2007-04-01

5 stars
especially if you wnat to expand your spiritual awareness
of beautiful songs of the spirit

Groan Drone.......2007-03-23

Quite the misleading title as this is disco-drone. If it is true that all things must pass it would be better to pass this one by.

delightful and makes you want to move.......2007-03-14

I was given a sample CD with the first two songs and was hooked. The more I listen to this CD the more it makes me feel good, and light, and connected. I love painting to this music. I choreographed a three person belly dance to the title song, it is somehow soft yet powerful, does great things to the spirit and the body.

Not Your Typical Chant CD.......2007-01-29

It's not your Typical Chant CD

It's an interesting mixture of modern English-language pop music and Tibetan chants.

As a Buddhist, I find the mixture to be inoffensive on a religious level.

I was won over by the execution. It is an exceptionally well-crafted effort. I was particularly struck by track Four, "River of light," which features the Seven Line Prayer to Guru Rinpoche. It is clear and really quite 'catchy.' The same can be said for many of the songs on this CD. "I Wanna Fly" features the Mantra from the Heart Sutra, (AKA the Wisdom Mantra or the Emptiness Mantra). Many tracks feature well-known mantras or prayers, including the 100 Syllable Mantra of Vajrasattva, Mahakala Mantra, and The Short Refuge Prayer, among others.

I believe that the Mantras and prayers here are treated with respect and affection. At the same time, it is something that I hope could get some 'air time' on some radio stations.

I like it.
