I first became aware of Deva Premal's "Embrace" in my Yoga class and finally went out and recently got a copy of this CD.

This music combines Mantras with eclectic music which draws from many styles. Deva Premal has one of the most incredibly beautiful and sincere voices I've ever heard and I find that this music truly reaches inside my heart and elevates my spirits.

It's wonderful music not only to practice yoga with but to hear at any time.

I can't recommend this CD highly enough, it is a truly wonderful gift of music and I am looking forward to getting more of her CDs.

Namaste

Deva Premal's, "The Essence", was there for me when my life dramatically changed. Now, with this new release, I find myself drawn to this music. Her unique voice is soothing, the music sometimes hypnotic. It's easy to become lost or part of the mantra. For quiet time, I light a candle, some incense, and sing along. It is wonderful!

You can find eight minutes and fifty-two seconds at the start of your busy day to chant with Deva Premal a most powerful Medicine Buddha healing chant "Teyata" contained on this disc; you owe it to yourself! Fill the "empty" moments of the day and stop mind-chatter with something useful and transformational. Highly recommended!

Likes most other reviewers, I became aware of Deva Premal's music through my Yoga classes. I will only say that "Om Namo Bhagavate" is perhaps the most beautiful, melodic and haunty melody I have ever heard. I have an expansive and diverse record and CD collection ( 50 years worth of material) and I have never heard a melody or a voice quit like hers. While the entire CD is excellent, probably her best, Track # 2 is the stand out.

I won't repeat what others have said, just purchase this CD

Terrific music - Deva's voice is so fluid and enjoyable. I sing along all the time - especially love the last song that just touches me at the core. I wish I had a translation for the indian words. Overall, I can listen to this cd over and over.

This CD is the most beautiful, inspiring CD I have ever heard...and it saved my life.

I was hiking in the Desolation Wilderness last year when I tried to descend from Mt. Ralston by an alternate route, following a waterfall.

On the way, down, I got in trouble and fractured my leg..wound up spending 2 nites on the waterfall with seemingly no way out.

No-one knew I had gone hiking, and I had no food or water..just my CD player with this new CD I brought up with me.

I was hungry and scared and I really thought I would die on the mountain and then I put on this CD and heard the most beautiful, life-affirming music I had ever heard. I played and replayed it and it gave me the will to live and to struggle down the mountain with my fractured leg and other injuries.

I have never met Deva Premal but I truly love her and her music.

Because of her, I'm alive...

Ever get a song stuck in your mind and Love it there? That's what Embrace is like. I just can't get enough. I left it at work over the weekend and actually missed it! I listen to it at work with headphones, and it gets pretty hard to remember NOT to sing along! Its beautiful, sweet, relaxing and upbeat.

I play Deva's music in my Yoga class and almost always receive comments on how beautiful the music is. Deva's voice is incredibly beautiful. I like the assortment of tempos this CD offers. It is a perfect CD to listen to for Yoga, relaxing, or any time you're looking to mellow out. Great buy!

Being Indian I started on this CD with trepidation, expecting a western pop version of indian chants. But Deva produces an authentic bhakti experience and dissolved my fear. Her music, though somewhat different from my past Indian experience, blissfully conveys the Spirit that are the words themselves. In India it is said that if one has bhakti in the heart then the singing of and about the Names will convey the inhernt bliss, irrespective of all else.
Listen to this CD and feel the bliss.

I first heard this CD while in my Yoga class. As soon as the instructor told me what it was, I immediately looked it up and listened to samples. I fell in love with it immediately. It is a very relaxing CD that I use during Yoga at home, to get to sleep at night and anytime I just need to destress. Deva Premal has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard!
