Mantra & Music

For over 30 years Sada Sat Kaur has toured the world, chanting mantras and singing kirtan in ashrams, concert halls, schools, public parks. In India, audiences have been known to flock to her as if she were the Beatles. “We play to crowds of 200,000 people,” she says. “They want to touch you and get your autograph. You go to these parks when it’s a Sikh holiday, and they hear that these American Sikhs are going to sing, and you can’t even see the end of the sea of people.” As the decades have passed, that sea of people has never managed to hoist Sada Sat Kaur toward a recording studio-until now. “The feeling inside myself was that this was all going to happen when it was supposed to happen,” she says, “and it did.” In 2000 she was hanging around the watermelon tent at a Summer Solstice retreat in the mountains of New Mexico when she fell into an exchange with musician and producer Jeremy Toback. “We just got to talking and Jeremy and I were like, `Let’s do an album.” The result of that chance encounter is Angels’ Waltz, the debut disc.

The Gong

“The sound of the Sacred Gong is the sound of Creativity itself. One who plays the Gong, plays the Universe.”— Yogi Bhajan

The Yogis call the Sound of Creation, Dharm Damama. Through the sound of the Gong we create anew our own self and our relationship to the Universe.

Listening to the gong you can experience deep relaxation and the healing energy that unlocks your unlimited and creative self. In the Ancient Buddhist Traditions, Gautama Buddha, the great Buddha himself, used the sound of the gong, to open the thousand petal lotus, the 7 chakra, to enter the state of Maha Samadhi….Bliss, Contemplation and Revelation.

Sada Sat Kaur learned these rare teachings directly from Yogi Bhajan

“Out of the Gong, came all music, all sounds and all words.” –Yogi Bhajan
