I heard this today in my yoga class and I think her music is just beautiful. My instructor let "Tumare Darsham" play repeatedly, and I liked the song so much that I asked her for the name of the artist. Never considered myself to be a New Age fan at all (extra emphasis on the "at all") but the combination of her voice and the music makes for something I think any true lover of music can appreciate.

I discovered this CD during a yoga class at a meditation retreat in the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia. The beauty of the music struck me right away. I interrupted the teacher in the middle of class to find out what was this wonderful music. Bought the CD as soon as I got home. That was two months ago. Now I play it and play it and can't stop playing it. It's just extremely soothing and I don't get tired of it. My favorite is the classic Guyatri mantra. It's magic. Go buy this CD and do some spiritual healing.

This is an absolutely beautiful CD of Hindu mantras. I first heard it in a yoga class and was captivated. If you're interested in this type of music, this is a must have CD.

I wish this cd had more songs! Her voice is soothing, the songs are relaxing...I play this in my salon and everyone who has heard it so far has loved it.

This CD is beautiful and relaxing. The music is lovely to listen to, would be wonderful for meditation.

Nice DVD overall, but the "essence" doesn't come through.
Deva Premal comes across more strongly on the Youtube videos.

This CD was playing softly at workshop I did recently and the music coordinator jotted the name down on the back of my nametag. When I got home and ordered it I was not prepared for the lush beauty and power of Deva and Miten. I have since ordered every single one of Deva and Miten's CDs and they are ALL MAGNIFICANT. Deva's soothing voice and the fantastic arrangements make this an amazing CD to play while loading the dishwasher, healing a client, AT WORK or as a meditation itself. Recently myself and a group used her beautiful Gayatri Mantra in a world healing - and it was so powerful, we were all vibrating when we finished. I cannot say enough about how powerful this CD is, and Deva's music is in my life.

Yet another wonderful cd by Deva Premal. The songs seem to flow over me like colorful silk scraves waving in the wind. They're fun, upbeat and dancy in some, soft, thoughtful, introspective in others. Its a great compilation that's simply beatiful. I can listen to it over and over!

I have a large CD collection, including many, many New Age-type CDs. This is one that I come back to, again and again, in a hundred different situations. It soothes me on a plane, it makes wonderful background music for almost anything except housecleaning, and just generally makes me feel good.

A diverse collection of people have heard this and loved it, from my mother-in-law to neighbor kids. I played it continuously when my grandmother was ill and dying, and while I'm not sure what it did for Grandma, all the caretakers and family members said that it brought them great peace.

I'm buying "Love Is Space" today as a gift for my mother, who also loved "The Essence". If you are looking for something with a beat and a variety of tunes, look elsewhere, but if you want hauntingly beautiful healing music that washes over you in soft waves, then buy Deva Premal.

I have a collection of "new age" music, including chanting, chakra clearing, meditation and relaxation. This CD was so much more. Before Deva Premal I thought WAH! was the best when it came to chanting on a rhythmic, easy to listen to scale. This CD is so very much more. You just float along with the chanting. And since I attended a recent retreat at Samasati - track #6 - was a special bonus. Although she spells it differently, I'm sure it is the same retreat. A extremely uplifting experience.
