Some Comment at YouTube about this Video :
- I feel embraced by the spirit of purity
- I heard this mantra with headphone on and my eyes started to drip, I don't know why I cried- it just happened. yet, I am one of those person who never cries watching movies. I think that if you really listen carefully with everything absorbed (faithfully), it will give you the glimpse of the eternal bliss. It can heal. I probably had deep psychological reaction coming from within without conscious knowledge. i feel blessed.
- It is so beautiful that words cannot describe. It is waste of living without enjoying this song at least once in a life.
