Regularly, I ‘have to’ listen to ‘Soulweaver’. This recording is a truly positively addictive audio psycho-acoustic device. Soon after Kalyan gave me this album, Soulweaver became a very important component of my sound library since I see it as a sonic tool for active meditation and for my yoga practice. The music deliberately, literally puts me in a state. What is that state? It is something deep blue, like clouds. That state is also the grace of Sri Saraswati, the Vedic Goddess of music. It seems that everything is flowing out of that state, yet Kalyan’s music does not claim anything and is not involved in anything that is coming out of it. This is the state of perfect comfort, like natural samadhi state, the most natural state.

J’ai écouté ‘Soulweaver’ (quel beau titre!) plusieurs fois et c’est une excellente musique, très inspirante, presque hypnotique. En tous cas Soulweaver est une méditation active très originale. Un CD que je vais réécouter souvent et faire découvrir à plein de gens car j’en connais beaucoup qui recherchent exactement ce genre d’approche musicale.

Danke! Deine ‘Soulweaver’ ist wunderbar und eine Perle. Ich habe mir die Musik nun schon in verschiedenen Situationen angehört. Sie gefällt mir immer besser. Die Zärtlichkeit deiner Kompositionen öffnet mein Herz. Ich habe Andrea gefragt, welche drei Wörter sie der Musik geben würde: Liebe, Geborgenheit, Hingabe.

Wonderful for a slow class; the vocals are lush, beautiful, not intrusive. Loved this one.
