As Deva notes, Tibetan Mantras for Turbulent Times "originally arose out of a desire of mine to chant mantras together with Gyuto monks – those precious souls who have devoted their whole lives to the practice.Their incredible voices and the intense vibration they create, infused with such a deep immersion into the holy sound, has always inspired and intrigued me."
Deva and the Gyuto Monks are joined by Grammy Award Winner David Darling on cello, Kit Walker (producer of Love is Space and Embrace) on keyboards, and Nepalese bansuri maestro Manose, enhancing the deep silence that the mantras carry and creating a potent sound healing journey.

The lyrics of Deva Premal & The Gyuto Monks of Tibet's song "Buddha: Om Muni Muni Mahamuni Soha" are deeply rooted in Buddhist philosophy and teachings. The mantra "Om Muni Muni Mahamuni Soha" is a Tibetan Buddhist chant which translates to "OM, wise one, wise one, great wise one, to you I pay homage." Through this mantra, the soul is seeking to connect with the wisdom and compassion of the Buddha for guidance and illumination.
The repetitive nature of the chant itself is a form of meditation, allowing the mind to focus and quiet the noise of daily life. The use of the mantra by the Gyuto Monks of Tibet, who are renowned for their deep, harmonic chanting, adds an extra layer of spiritual significance to the lyrics. The combination of the mantra, the monks' voices, and the accompanying music creates a powerful, transformative experience for the listener.
