A valuable resource for creativity.......2007-07-11

I have found Jeffery Thompson's Theta CDs a useful aid to creativity over the past 4-5yrs promoting calming and focus. I play it through Windows media player with SoundSpectum's G-Force frequency responsive image software to reinforce the effect and involve the visual brain.

Very good.......2007-06-26

I am very pleased with this CD, the music is very calming and relaxing. I don't know if it actually gets me into a theta state as I have no way of measuring my brain waves with an EEG device but it does get me more relaxed and stress-free and thats what I care about. Highly recommend it.

Takes the edge off..........2007-06-13

I find this CD really helps me rejuvenate and re-energize if I haven't had enough sleep or otherwise feel fatigued. It's particularly helpful on days following a night of insomnia, and leaves me feeling as if I'd caught up on the missed sleep. It also provides powerful assistance for creative visualization sessions.

GREAT PRODUCT.......2007-03-19

I LOVED THE CD'S, HOWEVER I DIDN'T GET THE BOOK. ALL OF THIS GUYS MUSIC IS PHENOMINAL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

wonderful!.......2007-02-16

I have bought several guided imagery cd's for relaxation and have found the voices on them to be irritating or the content to be kinda stupid. So I bought some nature sounds like ocean waves etc and found them to be relaxing but not exactly trance inducing. This cd is amazing. At first it just sounds like a new age cd but when you use it to meditate it pulls you in to a state of very deep relaxation. My whole body felt tingly. I don't think I have ever felt so at peace. I plan on buying all his cd's and using them every day!!!

Sacred Spirit: Chants and Dances of the Native Americans is an 11-song journey bridging the gap between ancient and contemporary history, tradition and modern instrumentation. While it is impossible to fully realize such scope on a single disc, Sacred Spirit makes the choice to represent all indigenous Americans rather than become mired in the potentially divisive bog of politics and tribal allegiance. All but two melodies are entirely traditional, bringing together flute, drums, and vocals with a cello and keyboard wash. This marriage is most effective on the lovely bowing of "The Cradlesong," and the looping electro-acoustic beauty of "Wishes of Happiness & Prosperity." Elsewhere, synthetic elements are overwhelming, detracting from a song's essence, as with the spongy nervosity of "Elevation." An uneven offering, Sacred Spirit doesn't quite live up to its promise. A better choice is Earthbeat's Tribal Waters. --Paige La Grone

This Cd actually makes my mind wander back in time and wonder what it was like living as and indian. The CD is a must for any music lover!

Great CD.......2007-05-08

I had heard mixed reviews of this CD, but I found it to be amazing.

Very interesting. Worth buying........2007-04-12

There are a few tracks that are really great on this CD. I expected more Native America chanting/singing and less electronic music. That being said, I really like the CD. It does strike a spiritual chord during some of the tracks. There are reviews here that look like they belong in a magazine. I will just say that if you like World Music or New Age music (and they ARE different), I suspect this is a very worthwhile CD to add to your collection.

THE best CD i've bought in a long long time!!!!.......2007-04-09

I was watching one of Youtube's clip of the Grand Canyon's Skywalk that opened up last year on an Indian reservation. The clip has this most beautiful trance-like mellow groove song on it and i HAD to find out what or who it was by. Thanks to the helpful people who posted a reply, i was able to find and obtain this CD. The song on that Youtube clip was called [ Ly-O-Lay Ale Loya (Circle Dance)]. As the title of this comment says, it IS the best CD i've bought in a VERY a long time. In fact i'm listening to it now as i'm writing this.
The combination of Trance, Newage, Lounge and tranquil music is enough to take you away. I wanna say it's like a combination of Deep Forest meets Jam and Spoon meets Enigma. I just can't put it into better words than the other people who has posted the same comments about this CD. I HIGHLY recommend buying this and enjoying it! I just can't seem to get tire of it!

Soothing Native Music.......2007-03-30

I am a fan of infusion between tribal beat and modern music. This collection is wonderful infusion between tribal beat and enchanting vocal blended with modern instrumental sound. If you like Deep Forest you will definitely love this. It is not like Enigma or Magna Canta but it has it's own charm. I am going to buy all Sacred Spirit volumes after hearing this.

Book Description

"Kirtan is the calling, the crying, the reaching across infinite space—and digging into the heart's deepest well—to touch and be touched by the Divine Presence," teaches world music pioneer Jai Uttal. On Kirtan! The Art and Practice of Ecstatic Chant, Jai guides listeners through the practice of Kirtan—singing the many names of God and Goddess—an essential part of Bhakti yoga, or the yoga of devotion. This sacred music form is for all people; there are no experts, nor beginners, and the practice itself is the teacher, guiding us to ourselves. Listeners join Jai Uttal to explore: the power of ancient Sanskrit syllables in chant to invoke the Divine, how to open the voice and learn to love the sound that comes from our bodies, more than two hours of music recorded by Jai Uttal to commune with the Divine through sacred chant, and the path of Bhakti and Kirtan, the journey of surrender, and much more.

Customer Reviews:

"A Joyful Noise".......2007-05-16

When I heard an interview on NPR with this artist,Jai Uttal,and music from his CD I couldn't get it out of my mind. It is "a joyful noise" that lifts the spirit and energizes. His very personal explanation of Kirtan on Track 2 gives one an understanding of the spiritual basis of the music and even if it is not a path that you might follow you can't help but be swept up in the chanting. I play it in the car on days when I feel stressed and it removes all that chatter in my head and helps me arrive at my destination uplifted and in the present. His interpretation of the ancient chants using non traditional instruments and renditions is appealing and engaging. P.S.It is a 2 disc set so you can have one at home and one in the car!

Not As Ecstatic As I Like To Be.......2007-04-22

Although a double CD set, both disks pose a problem to this reviewer's taste. Each contains a rather lengthy exposition by the artist on the nature of Bhakti (Devotional) Yoga sandwiched in the program. Jai Uttal has a very pleasant speaking voice & the material was helpful, even inspiring--but do you really want to hear it all over again everytime you play either discs? I know I don't. The musical material is engaging, but not particularly special. It is authentic mantra, but without the technical brilliance of many such CDs (see links below). I don't regret buying it--again, BUT it won't become a treasured favorite. I don't think it would turn-on people who weren't mantra fanatics like me or a real fan of the artist--or a devotee of Kirtan.

PS. The cover artwork is great!

Devotional music at its sweetest.......2007-03-15

This 2-CD set is one of the best introductions to contemporary kirtan I've come across (and I own many kirtan CDs). Aside from the wonderful spoken section, where Jai Uttal chats informally about what kirtan is, the selection of songs is truly heartwarming. I love both CDs, but find I listen over and over again particularly to the second one for its variety of moods and styles. Jai's voice really cuts deep and brings out the intensity and authenticity of his own devotion to the path of music and the heart.

In addition, the musicianship of everyone featured on this set is superb and adds so much to the listening experience. It is hard not to sing along and feel the blessings flow, even if you are not a singer...and that is exactly the point.

Kirtan: The Art and Practice of Ecstatic Chant by jai Uttal.......2007-03-09

Wonderful kirtan, by a great artist.

How can I express my joy?.......2007-03-06

I was a big fan of Krishna Das and I still am. A couple of weeks ago, for the first time in my life, I heard Jai Uttal's 'Radha Rani ki Jai, Maha Rani ki Jai' - Track # 4 on Disc 2. Like all good music does to my soul, I was so enchanted that I played the same track again and again till I lost count. I wasted no time in getting both the discs and my favorites are as follows:
Disc 1: Track # 3 'Radha Govinda'
Disc 2: Track # 1 'Durga Pahimam', Track # 3 'Jaya Radha', Track # 4 'Radha Rani'
Originally coming from India and being a big proponent of 'Bhakthi Yoga' (Path of devotion and Divine love for God), I can say from the depths of my heart that Jai Uttal sings with such soulful melody and love, it takes my breath away every single time I listen to the tracks mentioned above. It surprises me so much that while I cannot listen to certain types of music even once leave alone repeating my listening experience, the kind of music that Jai Uttal, Krishna Das and others produce, I can listen for a lifetime and experience that joy again and again.

Customer Reviews:

Raising spirits.......2007-06-27

This Liquid Mind album is one of three that I currently own. When I put it on with the intent to "lift my Spirit," it does. I relax, sort out my thoughts, relfect upon positive aspects in my life, and that rejuvenates my spirit and mood. I intend for that to happen when I play this album, and the music definately provides an atmosphere of, and not a distraction to what I choose to think about. I think that "Spirit" is aptly named.

Feeds the Spirit.......2006-11-03

This is a great way to begin the day! I can put this on and have my cup of tea, and get in touch with my inner spirit.

Perfect for relaxation.......2006-05-26

Just what I was looking for. Perfect for massage, calming down or just relaxing before bed. Something about it helps me breathe better.

sound healers dream!.......2005-10-19

This review may only speak to a very few people, but nonetheless, I would have liked to seen a review like this somewhere in my neverending search for sound healing music. I use many forms of music in my healing sessions, and the LIquid Mind series are hands down the best. I primarily use these CD's through a vibroacoustic soundtable, and the overtones are just right. Constant and not too jarring. The music penetrates into the body in a mellow and flowing way. The vibration of the music is subtle yet powerful. If you are looking for good sound table music, this collection is what you are looking for, as well as anything by Klaus Wiese or Crystal Voices crystal bowl cd's.

Melt Away Stress.......2005-09-03

This is the first cd I've bought in the Liquid Mind series, but after hearing this one, I'll buy more. The music is calming and soothing; great to fall asleep by which I often do. It lulls you into a peaceful state of relaxation, letting your mind drift away from the cares of the day. It makes me think of floating on a cloud. I would highly recommend this cd for anyone with a busy, stressed-out life.

Sound as if I am in church........2007-06-07

Though my title says chicano_punk, I have an apreciation for music also. I have a church choir, and I wish they would just sound like the voices ensembled in this album. I usually listen to this cd when I am doing my college work or I need to meditate, it is very relaxing. The vocals in this album are wonderful, and I have to say that it sounds good. I usually dislike songs that are ensembled with instruments, and choir voices, but this cd surely proved me wrong. As my comment said, it sets the ambience as if I am in church though, when I am listening to this cd. You should here the previews on this cd, and hear the voices that I am talking about. This is a great celtic album, and if you want something that is mind relieving, then you should listen to this cd.

And drag down the overall score as well! This CD is beautiful by the way and deserves a full five stars. I am purchasing it again as a gift.

This is my absolute fav. celtic CD. I have had to buy it three times cause everyone loves it so much it keeps "turning up missing"

Beautiful; peaceful; classic Celtic.......2006-11-28

This was one of the cd's I put with the cd player we gave my mother when she started getting suddenly really sick with cancer, and she played it a lot. I hope, and think it must have had to take her mind off for a while at least. My other 4 sisters and I do some traditional songs, and we sang "Rosa Mystica" (which we first heard on this CD), voices-only, at her funeral Mass -- she had a very close relationship with Mary and the Rosary and there couldn't have been a more fitting song. This is a great traditional Celtic album; haunting but so beautiful. Doesn't sound at all like your typical church music but is very spiritual and would actually work well for meditation of any kind, as well as just being a very beautiful album.

Amazon.com essential recording

This collection of solo flute pieces from Navajo-Ute musician R. Carlos Nakai is an evocative delight. The album consists of mostly original material, from the composition "Canyon Reverie," to the improvisational "In Media Res," to "Athabascan Song," an arrangement of a traditional song. The latter in particular stands out, with a faster rhythm and more lilting melody than most of the other pieces. There's also "Ancient Dreams," performed on a bone whistle; the instrument almost exceeds the upper range of human hearing, and Nakai occasionally sounds like he's imitating birdcalls. A classically trained musician, Nakai blends musical traditions to create a whole that reminds one, on occasion, of Japanese shakuhachi music. --Genevieve Williams

Flute-tastic........2005-11-09

This is an album I got once after a trip to New Mexico, and obviously every time I hear it I'm transported right back to Santa Fe, on a cool night with the smell of mesquite in the air. I'm no expert, but his native american flute is so wonderful and peaceful, and sounds just as I'd expect and want it to. The music is quite relaxing and great to daydream to, and I'll assume "Earth Spirit" is in many a massage parlor. Highly recommended.

This is a very high quality, creative recording that combines sound in many different ways. The styles presented vary, but the CD as a whole hangs together very well. I find that it is very good for meditation, relaxation and healing. It soothing, comforting, nurturing and uses sound in fascinating ways. While the samples on the product page will give you a feel for the sound, you can't fully appreciate the rich range of frequencies, harmonics and overall impact unless you hear it through a good stereo or set of headphones.

Album Description

Many of the chants and mantras in this album are written by Guru Nanak, the First Guru of the Sikhs who lived from 1469 to 1538. Guru Nanak traveled on foot with his disciple, Mardana, throughout much of India and other countries in Asia. Mardana came from a long lineage of master musicians. Mardana played the rebeck, a simple stringed instrument of Persian origin. Guru Nanak would settle in an area perhaps under a tree, or by a river, and begin to sing with Mardana accompanying him. People would come from miles away attracted by the pure sound current and soon many people would be gathered around them in absolute rapture and love. Guru Nanak's songs have amazing rhythm and poetry, and his message speaks to the Soul.

One of Guru Nanak's most well known gifts to our planet is the sacred composition called Japji. It is recited daily by hundreds of thousands of Sikhs throughout the world today. Japji has forty "pauris" or stanzas. In the words of Yogi Bhajan, " Each pauri addresses different aspects of the relationship between man and God and each has a specific power and gift that comes with it. The particular power of each pauri in Japji lies in the combination of sounds which creates the chemical and magnetic change in and around the being who recites it."

The awareness imparted in these stanzas is simple, practical, and uplifting for anyone on a spiritual path. Japji means meditation of the Soul. It is for all people, as this was Guru Nanak's way.

Very disappointing - Doesn't even rate 1 star.......2006-08-17

The thought that came to mind as I listened to this album was that this is music to which one might suicide or have a drug overdose. Ms. Kaur's voice and instrumentation is monotonous and irritating. If you have tin ears, have had a lobotomy, or are seeking to have one, the voice of Ms. Kaur may give it to you for the price of her album. Ms. Kaur's westernized "inventive melodies and instrumentation" are a definite impediment to any value gained from this sacred composition.

wholeness happens.......2006-07-06

Snatam Kaur's music first enchanted me in a recent couples yoga class. Her delicate sense of melody, her seamless blend of western and eastern instrumentation and composition, and the purity of her voice all merge to offer a rich, luxurious aural context for meditative pleasure on many levels.

Shanti, on its own merits, transports, soothes, and inspires; two of her other CD's offer context. The predecessor Prem (2002) brings a more traditional, more conventional eastern sensitivity; Grace, which followed in 2004, still speaks eloquently and exquisitely, with a slightly more western feel and structure. Shanti evokes, for me, the richest balance. Gently powerful repetition and variation facilitate trance-like consciousness; lyrics in Gurumukhi, the sacred language of the Sikhs, often find complements in brief English phrases. By the time you let the repetitions of "I am in peace/Peace is in me" soak through you in Ong Sohung, you'll feel it truly, deeply, exquisitely. You may even begin to see the world differently.

As the CD ended upon my first listening, I felt moved to say to Snatam Kaur what I said to my beloved partner in our yoga class: "Thank you. Sat nam."

Shanti.......2006-04-07

I recently discovered Snatam Kaur by way of her GRACE album and her music transports me to a finer place. I wanted more, but was apprehensive that the albums would be too similar or not have the type of music I hoped for. Not so in this case. Her SHANTI album is lovely and unique from Grace, and NOT a disappointment! Yipppeee! More beautiful music to sing on my way to work and in the pasture. (OK, I don't know the words on ALL the songs, but she does offer the words on the insert.)

Peace and Tranquility Abound!.......2005-06-03

Shanti is an amazing CD! I first heard it in (surprise, surprise) yoga class and have been absolutely hooked. It is a recording that will permeate your life in a profound and healing way. I listen to it in the car, while practicing yoga and when I simply need peace. Snatam Kaur has a beautiful gift in her voice that comes through in a divine way.

Given the multi-million-copy selling success of Sacred Spirit: Chants and Dances of the Native Americans, its follow-up, Sacred Spirit II is bound to have a built-in audience. Like its predecessor, the collection mixes chant and song with dance beats and electronic instrumentation. While tracks such as "Dela Dela" and "Yane-Heja-Hee" meld these elements most effectively, the overall effect of the synthesized sound is heavily over the top and distracting from the gentle melodies and heartfelt cries of Native music at its best. A prime example is the tender and lovely female vocal on "May You Walk in Sunshine," obscured by overly aggressive accompaniment. A more solid and aesthetically pleasing choice for the genre is Prophecy: A Native American Collection, which achieves a finer balance of modern and ancient. --Paige La Grone

Amazing!.......2007-06-13

If you enjoyed Sacred Spirit I, you will love this one too! I can't stop listening to it.

Relaxing With Sacred Spirits II.......2007-05-07

A new type of music for the soul. It's wonderful. It's beautiful. It's exciting. And worth listening to. It's Native American chants and dances
done with some of the most amazing music I've ever heard.

The music has a rhythmic beat that's very catchy, but very soothing. I enjoyed it immensely.

Yet another excellent CD from the same producers.......2007-04-22

Continuing from the first great CD, Sacred Spirit II brings you more of the great mix of Native American music with modern grooves and beats.
I highly recommend this CD as well !!!

Good but not excellent as Vol 1.......2007-01-26

I expected more of this volume since the first one is real extraordinary, and seems to be hard to beat. However is good enough to have it. Good production and most of the tracks are in the same mood of the first volume.

FABULOUS!.......2007-01-15

We bought this CD while visiting Arizona last summer. We loved it so much that we have purchased this copy through Amazon for a friend as a Christmas Gift. He loves it too! This is a great combination of spiritual, Native music and chants along with "pop" melodies. I normally play inspirational CD's....lots of Native flute music, and meditation CD's but this one (and also Sacred Spirit Vol. 1) I can play when I have guests over and they do not fall asleep!
Love it!

Album Description

"An impressive work jam-packed with spiritual information [and] put together with love and devotion. Simply reading the information that comes with the disc is as unique an experience as listening to the sounds. A soothing listening experience and worth a visit." - ROLLING STONE

Jonathan Goldman is a world-renowned authority in the field of sound healing who presents lectures, workshops and intensive training sessions around the world. Goldman has been empowered by the Chant Master of the Dalai Lama's Drepung Loseling Monastery to teach sacred Tibetan overtone chanting. After finding that many of the chakra resonance recordings available were difficult to listen to, Goldman created Chakra Chants, an album that uses authentic and gloriously rich harmonic sound ripe with deeply resonant overtone chanting for a gentle yet powerful listening experience. Named Best Overall Album and Best Healing/Meditation Album at the 1999 COVR Awards, Chakra Chants remains the best-selling CD of its type. Features an extended booklet that explains, in detail, how the disc resonates and aligns the energy centers of the body in addition to how it may be used as a self-healing and meditation tool, a sonic environment, and a self-teaching tool to create sounds for greater balance and inner alignment. Also includes a bonus guided visualization, which may be used for enhancing the Chakra Chants experience.

Activating Vocal Harmonics.......2007-05-05

Some music can affect us so strongly that it moves into a category of "important" - the second track "Sacred Union" brought me into a vision that was integral to my sound healing work. I mentioned that to Jonathan at one of his intensives and he said that many have given similar input. Certain music allows us to "vibrate" to a certain state very quickly. This one helps me in that way and I have often used it in meditation and sound healing sessions.

Masterpiece of Sonic Healing.......2006-03-27

Chakra Chants contains seven tracks, each corresponding to one of the chakra points on the human body. Starting with the base chakra and ending with the crown chakra, it is a deeply moving piece of music suitable as a meditation tool, for cleansing and balancing your energy body or just for sheer listening pleasure.

The high quality booklet discusses the subtle body, the chakras and the principles of sonic healing. Each track is made up of the appropriate vowel sound, a bija mantra, an elemental and/or shabd sound and a particular keynote. A thorough and easy-to-practice guided visualization and an explanation of overtones are also provided in the booklet.

Overtones or harmonics are geometric multiples of the first note and represent the "colour" of sound. The human voice harmonics heard here add a deep emotional resonance to the sound. The voices are those of Goldman, Rabbi Shefa Gold, Gwen Tuesday and Lauren Cuggino, and all the instruments are authentic, i.e. no computerized sounds are used.

The result amply rewards the listener in glorious wave upon wave of swirling, uplifting joy. This is a true masterpiece that invites repeated listening and might serve as the ideal soundtrack to various holistic healing practices. Finally, Donald Beaman's cover art combines the Shri Yantra symbol with a square mandala and the human form in a most magnificent way. Chakra Chants is sublime; I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Ultimate Relaxation.......2006-01-06

I wouldn't have believed it, if I hadn't experienced this cd myself. The sounds seem to be in tune with some very deep level of energy. I have listened to this while meditating, but beware if you lie down and close your eyes you may fall asleep it is so relaxing. Besides meditating it helps with insomnia and also puts my 2 year old granddaughter right to sleep.
I would highly recommend this for yoga practice and meditation, it is the best I have experienced.
