Immerse yourself in the divine love of the sacred names. Jaya Lakshmi's singing is filled with true heart and passionate devotion. Her blissful blend of Sanskrit chant, harmonium, flamenco guitar, sarod and ambient grooves will comfort your heart and free your soul. Jaya Lakshmi is co-founder and lead singer of the acclaimed world techno-dance band, Lost At Lost. In recent years, she has been performing with Deva Priyo (on flamenco guitar and sarod) to packed audiences. Lakshmi has established herself as a major presence in today_s new devotional chant scene. This inspiring mantra chanting is unsurpassed for yoga, healing and meditation. Jaya Lakshmi's singing is absolutely phenomenal. The passion and grace in her voice really stirs the soul.

All Music Guide
Love Sheila Chandra's albums fusing Indian and European musical forms on Peter Gabriel's RealWorld label but miss the slightly poppier sound of her early-'80s albums with the synth pop trio Monsoon? Then Jaya Lakshmi's Ocean of Mercy is the perfect midpoint. This is not fluffy crossover pop; the eight-lengthy songs are all sung in Sanskrit and feature devotional lyrics. Yet Lakshmi (who also sings with the more pan-global band Lost at Last) subtly updates the arrangements with synthesizers and worldbeat touches that are well integrated into the rich, billowing sound. Unlike many albums that sound tacky and somehow off when exploring similar cross-cultural areas, Ocean of Mercy has a unified and powerful sound. Songs like the hypnotic, largely acoustic ten-minute chant "Gypsy Krsna" are perfect for those newcomers to South Asian music who find the Nonesuch Explorer series too forbidding. Purists may well find it far too pop, and an argument could be made for that belief, but Ocean of Mercy is a quite enjoyable listen.

Backroads Music
On Ocean of Mercy Jaya Lakshmi's singing is filled with true heart and passionate devotion. Her blissful blend of Sanskrit chant, positive lyrics, harmonium, flamenco guitar, sarod and ambient grooves will comfort your heart and free your soul. It reminds [me] of the music Sheila Chandra made earlier in her career, and will be perfect for Yoga, the Healing Arts and ecstatic dance.

Music Design In Review
Jaya Lakshmi is, without a doubt, one of the most innovative, up-and-coming artists in the realm of contemporary chant music. Spiritual as well as sensual, her music is an intoxicating mix of ethereal Vedic chants, percolating tabla beats, harmonium drones and even a little Gypsy spice thanks to the flamenco guitar of Deva Priyo. It's music for dance and deep trance all wrapped up in one, providing the perfect accompaniment for yoga, ecstatic dance or just chilling out.

Common Ground Magazine
Jaya Lakshmi is co-founder and lead singer of the acclaimed world techno-dance band, Lost At Last. In recent years, she has been performing with Deva Priyo (on flamenco guitar and sarod) to packed audiences, and has established herself as a major presence in today's new devotional chant scene. Lakshmi is one of the few touring female Kirtan performers today. On Ocean of Mercy, Jaya Lakshmi's singing is filled with true heart and passionate devotion. Her blissful blend of Sanskrit chant, positive lyrics, harmonium, flamenco guitar, sarod and ambient grooves will comfort your heart and free your soul. It reminds one of the music Sheila Chandra made earlier in her career, and will be perfect for Yoga, the Healing Arts and ecstatic dance.

Innerchange Magazine
This CD is alive with passion, a powerful celebration of life, love and the Universe. It is hard to sit still while listening to this music. "Ocean of Mercy" takes Sanskrit chanting and blends it with gypsy guitar, tabla and sarod to create an upbeat devotion to life. I find it difficult to stop listening to this CD. This is one to just leave in the CD player for a while... the most wonderful production of chanting I ever heard. I give this album the highest rating I have!
