"The music on this cd draws heavily from Tibetan tradition to create a listening experience of being set aright. The most common instrument on the cd I think is the voice -- Tibetan overtone chanting, vocal harmonies, & choruses. Goldman also uses singing bowls & other Tibetan bells & instruments -- even Pythagoran tuning forks -- to create music of true balance."

Hippie Buddhism....

"....and thats no criticism. A potpourii of tibetan flavors: starting with a deep split vocal cord tibetan prayer which extends beyond imaginable pulmonary capacity. That blends into eastern chanting. Then a backdrop of groovy wahwah moog music accompanies this chantric trance mix. Tibetan Calypso? And back to some more prayer before we are joined by some new age feel good chanting. This blue skinned medicine monk music purports to bring inner healing through its encodement of transformation from within the spirit. Well anyway you can feel the effort Goldman has put into this CD and the power of these harmonics. If your into mantra you will enjoy this CD."

A treasure

"As with most of Goldman's works, this includes a valuable booklet that explains the chants on track 2.

Chant along with the music and find bliss in the arms of the Medicine Buddha!"
