Three deep singing monks - Buddhist Monks of Maitri Vihar Monastery

The Maitri Vihar Monastery is located in Swoyambu Nath in Nepal and is home to some 50 monks from both Nepal and Tibet. They have released a CD, Tibetan Mantras and Chants, on which producer John Matarazzo of LogicalDrift presents a compilation of ten samples of Buddhist liturgical music. Most of the selections are chanted by the temple's resident monks. During some of the chants, bowls, cymbals and horns are used.
