A request came to me by Arjun King to give out more info on less mainstream music. So... I will do a little bit of that per day. We will start with.. Chants of India ~ Ravi Shankar & George Harrison Sanskrit chants from the Vedas, Upanishads, and other texts have been handed down through the centuries by Traditional Scholars in India. In these renditions, Ravi Shankar reconfigured existing forms and composed new numbers to convey the spiritual force of these Sanskrit mantras and chants. Oftentimes, its the repetitive use of mantras that calls upon the internal spiritual self. And, its the primordial, and shortest, sacred sound Aum or Om that is used before or after each prayer. These chants, Shankar notes, were mainly prayers for the well being of the universe, physical, mental, and spiritual selves of everyone, without pollution, turmoil, illness, discomfort, and misery of any kind and for overall Shanti (peace).
