Vaishnavi’s mesmerising, pure voice has been described as “a flute that the Divine uses to carry heart-penetrating beauty.”
Vaishnavi is one half of sacred mantra duo EARTH (
www.earthmantra.net) and this is her first solo release. She only began singing when she turned 30 and found her voice through connecting with the Bhakti path of devotion.
This song was received in 2008 whilst she was living on the roof of a Kali Temple in South India. “I had begun a daily practice of journalling my gratitude for one thing each day. On about day three, I chose ’trees’. I began writing words and this song just flowed out, fully formed. I truly believe it came from the trees themselves.”
It wasn’t until 2017 that the song was finally recorded - and it seemed to be very much the right time. “I had spent 2 months living completely Off-Grid, without even solar or wind power, in a Hobbitty roundhouse deep in the Welsh woods. I began to feel the trees imploring me to release this song out into the world.”
“She sings like an angel, touching hearts at a deep devotional level.” Chloe Goodchild
it is a song of the heart… the words and your voice carry the soul’s longing and truth” Jerome Flynn
“serious all over goosebump-making music”
“a beautiful voice that has powerful healing energy that penetrates into your body and gets directly into your heart! That’s my experience!”
“Pure Sattva”
“her voice is captivating in a way I have never heard”
“Only one who has braved the journey of transformation can spread the sweetness of its trials”
“a real gift for evoking the divine in your singing”
“Her voice is mesmerizing!!! It reaches your heart and fills it with affection, peace and love. It is a magical experience hearing this enchanting soul sing! I am spellbound!!!”
