Custom matte paper inner sleeve. Extracts from liner notes: "Ashram means 'hermitage'. Of the many humanly-constructed ashrams and monasteries throughout the world, I feel that the real ashram is in your heart... ...'Turiya' is a state of consciousness. It is regarded as the high state of Nirvana, the goal of human life... ...IHS means 'I Have Suffered'. It exemplifies the sufferings and tribulations of mankind in general. According to Eastern thought, suffering is a gift from God. Certain individuals suffer to a greater extent, more than others, depending upon Karma (action in general). The highest of these individuals are those who sacrifice themselves for humanity and love of God".
