Tibetan Buddhist music and chants performed by the monks of Gyüto Tantric College in India. This recording, made in the United States during one of China's crackdown on Tibet, includes these three tracks:

1. Yamantaka (27:44)
2. Mahakala (26:58)
3. #2 For Gaia (9:17)

To quote the review on Amazon.com: "Beautifully recorded, [this] features the monks, each singing two and three note polyphonics from the throat, accompanied by occasional percussion and ceremonial horns in trance-inducing meditations to the Buddhist deities Yamantaka and Mahakala (...) A bonus to this spiritual and transcendental endeavor is a track by Mickey Hart, Phillip Glass, and Kitaro, live in front of an audience (and the monks) in the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York."
