On this account of Soundcloud i will share Mantras and Kirtans


Minük is the Swedish – Colombian husband-and-wife duo of Alejandra Ortiz (singer of Lulacruza) and Marcus Berg (singer of Kultiration / Markandeya).

They delicately weave exquisite vocals with acoustic strings  (guitars, cuatro, charango, violin) in a swirling harmonious tapestry  uniting both their Nordic and Andean traditions. Their music is the  loving confluence of two crystalline streams gushing with Scandinavian  purity and South American Earth medicine, merging in the undeniable  presence of the sacred.

After releasing collaborations with celebrated producers Nicola Cruz  and El Buho, and others, their much anticipated debut release AURORA  shares the rich legacy of their stellar individual musical careers and  spiritual journeys in nine tracks of unparalleled beauty.

Manu Om nace el otoño de 2007. Poco a poco los mantras empiezan a llegar. Brotan fruto del amor a Bhagavan. Cinco años mas tarde, después de innumerables cantos y de la grabación de una maqueta (un Canto al Guru), nacen los dos primeros proyectos bajo el sello de "Manu Om Mina". Son grabados en Varanasi con la ayuda de Lucas Masciano, Mina Petersson, Paco Zarate, Sukhdev Mishra, Pancaj Ray y Atul Sankar. "Mere Gurudev" y "I love Sadhana" abren nuevos horizontes y el proyecto se materializa con contundencia. 

En el repertorio se alternan mantras y rezos del Sikh Dharma (Gurmuki) e Hinduistas (Sanskrito). Ambos caminos ofrecen en su práctica el canto y la dulzura del Bhakti (devoción). 

Por parte de madre recibo la herencia del Kundalini Yoga. Un linaje con un movimiento joven (nace en la década de los 60 en EE.UU. de la mano de Yogi Bhajan) pero con raíces asentadas profundamente en el camino del Sikh Dharma. 

Paralelamente, pertenezco al linaje de Bhagavan. Maestro iluminado del norte de la india. A través de Él recibo la inspiración. Este proyecto le pertenece. Es su obra. 
Gracias a Bhagavan nace en mi interior el camino del Bhakti Yoga y el contacto permanente con el Advaita Vedanta. Pero por encima de todo nace el vínculo de amor entre devoto y maestro.
