Upon release, Daina Darzin of Cash Box described the album as an "engaging mix of Indian music, spacey, weirdly spiritual-sounding electronics" and a "shimmering, undulating collection that manages to be ambient without becoming repetitive".[2] Tom Demalon of AllMusic considered the album a "pleasant - if fairly unadventurous - listening experience". He added: "The most satisfying tracks are those on which Currie sings lead. But with the lyrics mostly consisting of simple phrases chanted repeatedly over repetitive, hypnotic rhythms, most of the tracks tend to blur into one another, leaving them indistinguishable."[1]
