This recording took place at the Bhakti Center, New York City.

We started with a cover of George Harrison's Be Here Now, which I listened to repeatedly in the first weeks of the COVID- lockdowns in 2020. George Harrison's life and creative work mean a lot to me and it was beautiful to segue into a mantra that he loved so much.

The Maha Mantra is composed of Divine names: 'Hare' - the divine feminine; 'Krishna' - the all-attractive; 'Rama' - the reservoir of all pleasure.

In the same way that monsoon rains quench the parched earth and bring verdant life back to the forests and plains, the sacred names revive the heart that has been thirsty for time immemorial.
The vibration of the sacred names awakens the innate beauty of the soul and uncovers our deepest potential.
