The Beyond History In 2008 Beyond Music launched with Tina Turner, Regula Curti and Dechen Shak-Dagsay to celebrate their various cultural and spiritual backgrounds through music. Their first album, Beyond (Buddhist and Christian Prayers), received the blessing of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. This platinum-selling album sparked international interest, and it became clear that Beyond held the seed of something larger. It would become part of a global awakening toward mutual appreciation and dialogue between cultures and spiritual traditions.
