5.0 out of 5 stars Om Namah Shivaya, December 9, 2002

I originally heard this CD at a conference at Findhorn in Scotland, and the melody of the first song, "Om Namah Shivaya" echoed in my head for--literally--7 months, until I was able to lay my hands on a copy of it. The first two songs are my favorites, the second being "Govinda Hare." While the rest of the songs are also good (especially the two versions of the mahamantra, the first with Sting that flawlessly becomes "Amazing Grace," the second a 16+ minute ride through progressively more energetic cycles and variations), these two really stick out as exceptional and highly soul-touching. I've found these songs to be good for certain kinds of dancing, for meditating, for any ritual usage (though I am not specifically Hindu), and for general listening in the background. Nearly everyone for whom I've played this CD has fallen in love with it. It begs to be sung along with, and I'm sure you'll find that you will do this naturally (perhaps with some help from the liner notes) as you listen to it. I can not recommend this CD highly enough for those who are interested in this kind of music or are of a spiritual bent and just might be looking for something new and different.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sing along with KD, March 11, 2000

This man's voice is the sound of sweet melted chocolate. It was "Namah Shivaya" from Robbie Gass' "Chant" album that first lured me in; but I'm also in love with "Jaya Jagatambe" and the "Devi Rave" and "Mountain Hare Krishna" which has (amazingly enough) "Amazing Grace" embedded in it. A fabulous disc. I'm in love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pilgrim Heart by Krishna Das, June 7, 2000

Spiritual music at its best. Krishna Das performs Sanskrit chants for the American soul and spirit. Easy to listen to and have in your head for days afterward. The kirtan uplifts your spirit and it will stay there long after the CD has ended. What more could you want from music?
