"Kyrie Karuna" is a unique song of compassion created by Jennifer (Salima) Holt that weaves together the Gregorian chant 'Kyrie Liaison' ('Christ have mercy'), and 'Om Mani Padme Hum,' the Tibetan Buddhist sacred chant for compassion. Produced by Ben Leinbach and Jennifer Salima Holt, the music features Holt's powerful vocals and violin against a backdrop of lush, mellow instrumentation and a compelling, deeply inspirational collection of photographic images.
