about

A Prayer for Liberation is a deeply meditative track for yoga, meditation, healing and massage. It is based on the ancient Sanskrit Maha Mrityunjaya mantra the recital of which is said to help overcome any obstacles we may need to face, as well as overcome fear and ultimately death (our biggest obstacle).

Inspiration for this new creation was the song ‘A Prayer for Healing’, which was released back in 2017 by Praful, Dana Devi & the band Spirited Tribe on the album Silence Speaks. In this long piece co-conceived by Vimal Gabrielsen, a Sanskrit shloka (long Mantra) was also sung in a very slow, stretched-out and healing way, inviting in the listener an experience of stillness and vastness. With A Prayer for Liberation we are offering a sequel to this much-loved piece, with Dana Devi on lead vocals, Praful on many instruments & vocals, and special guest Zhubin Kalhor from Iran on kamanche.
