The rich blend of harmonic overtones created when Tibetan bowls are struck with various beaters was carefully recorded and gathered together into a musical journey which takes it's inspiration from traditional Buddhist teachings. Each track represents a stage in the 'eightfold path' to enlighten through meditational practice. The Jhanas are eight altered state of consciousness which can arise during periods of strong concentration. The word Jhana is from the 'Pali' language and means meditation. In addition to their usage for meditation, Tibetan singing bowls are also used in many Holistic therapy treatments including deep relaxation, chakra balancing, Reiki and stress reduction.
