Yes, the whole album is great! You can hear the whole album on Spotify or name your own price to download it from Bandcamp. Also all of the songs are on youtube.
@fenwizard ⦠Thats so interesting to read about Krishna Das experience in India!
Baba must have seen Krishna Das future and what he could do to raise the level of collective conscience in the future. The energy at his concert you attended must have been incredible
Thank you for sharing that.
A+ song (definitely an earworm, had it playing in my head lomg after listening to it) and A+ video
Havent seen the movie in 2 decades. Time to check it out again.
LOVE that song, never heard it before, its soooooooooooo GOOD!
Very cool synchronicity, last week I was reading Andrews Reverse Meditations book, and he uses the Turtles stacked on Turtles (all the way down) to illustrate the layers of contraction of the body and mind all the way down to the very subtle body (soul?).
Rare to find a song where almost all the lyrics are golden, this one hit a huge homerun!:
" Iāve seen Jesus play with flames
In a lake of fire that I was standing in
Met the devil in Seattle
And spent nine months inside the lions den
Met Buddha yet another time
And he showed me a glowing light within
But I swear that God is there
Every time I glare into the eyes of my best friend
Says my son, āItās all been done
And someday youāre gonna wake up old and gray
So go and try to have some fun
Showing warmth to everyone
You meet and greet and cheat along the wayā
Thereās a gateway in our minds
That leads somewhere out there, far beyond this plane
Where reptile aliens made of light
Cut you open and pull out all your pain
Tell me how you make illegal
Something that we all make in our brain
Some say you might go crazy
But then again, it might make you go sane
Every time I take a look
Inside that old and fabled book
Iām blinded and reminded of
The pain caused by some old man in the sky
Marijuana, LSD
Psilocybin, and DMT
They all changed the way I see
But loveās the only thing that ever saved my life
So donāt waste your mind on nursery rhymes
Or fairy tales of blood and wine
Itās turtles all the way down the line
So to each their own 'til we go home
To other realms our souls must roam
To and through the myth that we all call space and time"
Om Namah Shivaya - Krishna Das
OMG!
WOW this one is amazing! Not often do I get a head and body high off of listening to a song, Thank you for that. Love how the audience joins him. I hate to say it, this song may be one of the best ones I have heard all year
Not sure the instrument hes playing, but its really beautiful.
Just listened to this song tonight. This evening I found out they had to put down one of the horses at a place I volunteer at. I think this is a very fitting tune as her R.I.P song.
I love Sturgill! That good old time Psychedelic Country music!
Yes indeed! Sturgillās the man!

Couldnt resist posting this scene either, the pen is mightier than the swordā¦:
Yeah Krishna Das is the man! Probably the most famous Western kirtan singer. I can give a little background since I have been involved some in the kirtan scene. Kirtan is a big part of Bhakti Yoga, which is the yoga of devotion, so itās a spiritual practice. It involves call and response chanting of mantras. The instrument heās playing is a harmonium. Itās ironic that Christian Missionaries took the harmonium to India to teach Indians to sing Christian hymns. Indians loved it but instead began using it to chant mantras! Howās that for Karma? LOL
Yeah he is, talk about making a crowd resonate, WOW! Very impressive.
I dont think I havevheard of him before. Better late than never
Very cool, never heard of Kirtan or Bhaki Yoga before.
The first time I listened to the Krishna Das video, I wasnt watching it, just listening with headphones and laying down. The energy of the crowd was palpable. Then I listened a second time and watched the video, and I could see why the sounds vibes were so powerful.
Karma, like the Lord, works in mysterious ways
@NightHawk999 ⦠Wow! Thatās amazing you had such a beautiful reaction. Its thanks to @fenwizard as i had only posted because of Deva Premal & Miten being posted.
Oh, that is sad news. I understand how you must have felt, i too worked with horses at a Racing Stables. A beautiful RIP mantra song for her.
Ive never seen the Fifth Element. Love the opera singing! Theyre all great, i had the chills with Jane Zhang (reminds me of Kingdom of Zhung Zhang)
Yeah, there is a whole Kirtan scene here in the Western world right now. The most famous Western Kirtan musicians are Krishna Das, Deva Premal and Jai Uttal. Jai Uttal was also among the young hippies who followed Ram Das to India. Bhaktifest, that I just attended near Joshua Tree California is all about Kirtan and Yoga (although they have non-kirtan musicians there also, like Ayla Nereo and Michael Franti), and they also do a similar festival in the Spring called Shaktifest.
Here it is to watch for free, I consider it one of the best Sci-fi movies of all time:
