"In August 2008 my father was dying and I could not physically get to his side. I had remembered that Deva told us that the Om Asatoma mantra is traditionally played at times of transition, especially the passing of life.

"So, I went to a quiet room in my home, turned on Deva's version of this mantra and called up my father's image. I held him, I talked to him, I stroked his head and kissed him, encouraging him to allow himself to find rest and peace. I did this for nearly 15 minutes, with the Mantra playing.

"Then, suddenly, I knew I was finished, that it was complete. I stood up, went to find my husband and at that moment, the phone rang. It was my brother calling to tell me that my father had just died. I knew it of course, because I was there.

"This was the first time I had felt such a powerful connection through mantra. I am grateful for it. Thank you for bringing mantra to us in such an accessible and beautiful fashion."

Edtitor's Note: Deva Premal's recording of Om Asatoma can be found on her first album, The Essence.

Three days before passing, I came into her room, she had your Moola Mantra CD playing and asked me to lay with her and said to me:

“Maggie, what we do in this life does not really matter to the infinite, even if we live unhappy or happy. The infinite is still perfect and unharmed. The infinite, that we all are, is and will always be, perfect in all ways no matter what happens to us and earth.

"What we do here only effects our human experience and that experience ends when we die. What remain is our stories that others share together to hold the essence that we offered, yet no one will ever know our true self because that is a story which falls back into the illusion for the infinite. We are not this body, we are far more than this, and it is o.k."

Thank you, I will continue to cherish your music and celebrate in your concerts with my husband, we are grateful and thank you both for your continued display of couple ship.

Recently my daughter was in a coma for a month and I would sing your song Awakening to her over and over.

She has recovered in spite of all medical indications that there was no way she could live.

It had the doctors weeping in the hallways.

I know everyday is a miracle and they are all around but this one has shaken me open to profound spiritual possibilities...

Miten's song Awakening is on Soul In Wonder. Watch a live performance from Byron Bay, Australia).

Wow... this is one of the most amazing peices of music I have ever heard.

I have a huge day ahead of me tomorrow... am going to court for certain matters. I have literally been listening to Gate Gate all day long, over and over...the more I listen, the calmer I feel, the more I listen the more I surrender to the outcomes of tomorrow...

Bless you and thank you so much for this song. I close my eyes and my soul is washed clean by what I hear....
Gate Gate is also available on Love Is Space.
