The Lost Souls by Niraj Chag Print E-mail
Yoga MusicWhile there have been many Indian/electronic fusion CDs recorded, The Lost Souls stands out by its sultry, mystical and magical sweetness as well as through its minimal use of electronica elements. While the guest vocalists make these tracks shine, they are perfectly balanced and accented by guitars, classical strings, harmonium, tabla, flutes and electronic instrumentation.  The lyrics are a mix of original and traditional songs sung in Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi, Braj basha, and Classical Indian sargam. The liner notes are beautifully designed with ethereal photography and poetic translations of several songs. While mostly upbeat, the album has a good mix of tempos and intricate arrangements that would work well with a yoga practice.

Yogic Wisdom
These days, my practice is teaching me to embrace imperfection: to have compassion for all the ways things haven’t turned out as I planned, in my body and in my life – for the ways things keep falling apart, and failing, and breaking down. It’s less about fixing things, and more about learning to be present for exactly what is.

Ahimsa, the yogic practice of non violence must be adhered to when engaging in the practice of hatha yoga. Respect your body's limitations and inner wisdom, if something feels wrong or dangerous, please do not do it.
Please consult your health care practitioner before starting a yoga, pranayama or other exercise program.
