VICKI HANSEN BA (Comm.) Musical Ambassador for Peace on Earth
Starting out as a musician at the age of four, Vicki has learned to play a variety of musical instruments that many of us would baulk at.. keyboards, guitar, bass guitar, flute, recorder, didgeridoo, African and Egyptian percussion as well as having studied classical North Indian vocal music for several years.
About the chants on the CD:
Track 1 - Peace
Om Shanti Om
The first chant is Om Shanti Om, Om is the most pure sound - the primeval sound, the sound of the universe, the sound from which all other sounds come. It could be regarded as being the equivalent of white light, in which all of the colors of the rainbow can be found.
Shanti simply means "peace". This can be peace in body, speech, and mind (i.e. in the entirety of one's being), or as a wish for peace individually, collectively, and universally.
Track 2 - Harmony
Om Namoh Narayana
Prostrations to Lord Vishnu
Narayana is a name for Vishnu, the preserver of the world.
Track 3 - Immortality
Om! Tryambakam Yajaamahe Sugandhim Pushtee Vardhanam
Urva ruka meva Bandhanaat
Mrityor Muksheeya Ma amrutaat
Om! We worship Lord Shiva A chant beseeching safety and protection to overcome the fear of death.
Special Notes from the Composer:
Shaman Woman came about following a visit to tsunami-stricken Sri Lanka, where after volunteering with the amazing Sarvodaya organization, (www.sarvodaya.org ) my eyes and heart were opened to a level I'd never experienced before. I really felt the enormity and power of Mother Nature and was humbled before her. I also felt the tremendous power of the human spirit in the people who'd been through this tragedy. There we were, visiting the horrors of the tsunami where loved ones had been brutally torn and swept away, being offered food and hospitality by people that had lost everything. My heart ached, there was so little I could do.
Shaman Woman appeared to me as the healing force of Nature; I have come to know Shamans are
