Beyond: Buddhist and Christian Prayers

"In August 2005, His Holiness The Dalai Lama and Abbot Martin Werlen, head of the Benedictine Monastery in Einsiedeln (Switzerland), convened a shared ceremony of interreligious dialogue. They concurred in reminding the audience to cultivate and deepen their own religion and to search for shared values across all belief systems. We are deeply grateful for their wonderful blessings and the inspiration that the two spiritual and religious leaders' statements have given us for Beyond. Their meaningful words inspired the two singers Regula Curti (Christian) and Dechen Shak-Dagsay (Buddhist) to realize a CD with Buddhist and Christian prayers together. A wonderful journey began. Both singers started a quest to understand their own religious traditions and to inspire each other in finding the common truth. ... Inspired by the intense energy and passion of their work, the Beyond team then asked Tina Turner for her involvement. ... Tina's powerful voice, dance and music have given us comfort and courage" (CD notes by Regula Curti and Dechen Shak-Dagsay).
