New Musical Offerings

Greetings All,

Well, for me time and space have really been altered. Since the pandemic cramped our style, I didn't feel feel as if I'd really done that much. Maybe it was the lack of travel? Or not driving around this big town of LA to teach? But as I got ready to share these latest recording efforts, I see I did OK — 3 albums and a 31-minute Sat Kriya!

LINKS TO THE ALBUMS AND ALL MY MUSIC:

Here's a little background on these recordings:

The "Forces Joined" album utilizes musical versions of Sikh, Buddhist, Hindu and English mantras. Besides the joining of those forces, there is a merging of the chants' ancient wisdom with contemporary musical backings.

And you know Sat Kriya is Sat Kriya...
This rockin' musical track is a way at to add joy and momentum while keeping proper pace during the practice of this Kundalini Yoga staple.

The "Yogable: A Gentle Approach to Yoga, for Special Populations" and "8 Limbs, 10 Bodies, 12 Steps: Yoga for Addiction" are accompanying tracks to the manuals written by Patty Patwant Wildasinn. She asked to use some previously recorded tracks and requested I record some others. Versions of Sa Ta Na Ma, Kirtan Kriya, Sat Kriya, I Am, Laya Yoga Meditation and Sat Nam Wahe Guru are the newer recordings among them. All the cuts are meant to be applied for class/kriya meditations.

It is my wish that you enjoy listening to them as much as I enjoyed creating them. And, I hope you find them useful and uplifting for your students, friends, and colleagues.

All Good Things,
~ Vicky Jap Dharam Rose

latest album: Universe Unmanifest

Thoughts on this album:

The title track ‘Universe Unmanifest’s’ words are translated from the Tibetan Book of the Dead—meaning the energy of the Universe before it was organized is the true home.

The energy of the mantras were there, and then the mantras themselves were there. I did not find the mantras for this album, they found me. High in the Himalays and along the banks of the Ganga, this collection of mantra and song were undeniably presented to me from Mother India.

Yogi Bhajan said, “70% of what you know or plan does not happen.” This album came from that sacred space of the 30%, that starting point of my soul, from the place I consider my home.

May your road home be smooth. Sat Nam.
