Prem (Love)

Product Description A Chant Album from the Sacred Writings of the Sikhs to experience Love. Prem means the experience of love, deep love. It is the love that you have the courage and wisdom to feel in yourself for yourself, it is the love that God feels for you. We project ourselves through every moment of time and space whether it is through sounds, thoughts, or feelings. The gift of every human being is to truly express the soul through the intelligence of the mind and body. In order to project the reality of the honest self, the soul, Yogi Bhajan has taught the science of Naad Yoga. Naad means sound current. It is the primal sound that connects the basic elements of the physical body to the etheric elements of the soul. Naad Yoga uses sacred mantras from the writings of the Sikh Gurus in the beautiful poetic language of Gurumukhi. These mantras are traditionally practiced with a straight spine, in a meditative posture. As the mantras are sung the energy of the sound current creates a channel of healing energy through the spinal chord and out the top of the head. In yogic practice we call this the turning of the lotus. Through Naad Yoga the Kundalini energy rises from the base of the spine to the top of the head. At this time the lo! tus flower turns upside down and rains nectar down upon the yogi. In spiritual terms the sweetness of angels caresses each and every cell. Often times people tell me, " I don’t have a good voice, I can’t sing." I tell them that the very sound of your voice is what will heal you if you just allow it to be you. By practicing Naad Yoga we can obtain the experience of heaven on earth in our own body. This experience will in turn bring light to the rest of your life simply by the natural flow of energy that you have created within yourself. Prem is my new album that is created so that anyone can take it, listen to it, chant with it, and be with it. It is called Prem because in the beautiful process of figuring out which mantras to do, creating the tunes, and bringing them to the studio it gave me a deep sense of self love and healing. May it also bring self-love and healing into your life. Review In Snatam's voice I know there is purity, clarity, and love. Her voice honors the ancient traditions. --Ram Dass, Los Angeles, CA, September, 2002 About the Artist Snatam Kaur was born and raised with yoga and meditation as a daily practice as taught by Yogi Bhajan. She received musical training all throughout school in violin, voice, and percussion. Upon graduating high school she lived in India and studied with masters of the Sikh traditional style of music called Gurbani Kirtan. With her meditative practice and musical training she combined these two streams of disciplines into creating devotional music. She has shared her music throughout the world on Gurbani Kirtan tours to Great Britain, Canada, and India. She has also shared her music in many workshops for people committed to working for social change with an organization founded by her father Sat Santokh Singh which is called Creating Our Future. Creating Our Future has given thousands of people the skills to work for social change with notable speaker/teachers such as Ram Dass and Julia Butterfly. Snatam received a degree in Biochemistry and now she lives in Eugene Oregon and works as a Food Technologist for Golden Temple, Sunshine, and Yogi Tea. In fact she was in the lab creating Peace Cereals before they became so well known and established in the market place. Her creative capacity has served well as she has created and been a part of launching dozens of new cereals, teas, and cosmetic products. She has been an integral part of the team that established a monthly interfaith service after the tragic events of September 11. She serves as a minister in her local Sikh community and spends much of her time teaching children how to play music. Snatam has released three major albums and numerous mantra albums with a music group called Peace Family. These albums have focused on spiritually uplifting themes. Specifically one of her most significant releases to date is called "To Heaven and Beyond" which is a collection of mantras from the major religions of the world woven into one beautiful tapestry of music and sound. Her ability to transport people into the realm of the heart and spirit through music is her gift. This year she is releasing a new solo album entitled "Prem". This is a collection of mantras inspired by her journey to create and find Self Love. This is truly something from her soul.
