Krishna Das – live in Barcelona

Jul 14, 2010

Casa del Tibet Barcelona, 13.07.2010 Yesterday I have been for the first time in my life at a Kirtan workshop with Krishna Das. For those who are new to this genre, Kirtan is call-and-response chanting with a leader chanting and the audience responding with a musical background of tablas, cymbals or violin. I love Indian music, the voice of the sitar, the sound and the rhythm of tablas. I also like to listen to chants and therefore I was curious about participating a live Kirtan. It was an unforgettable and brilliant experience that touched me profoundly. For that reason I highly recommend to you to join such an event. It was a very cosy atmosphere and a real honour to have Krishna Das within our grasp, compared with e.g. a Kirtan where he chanted in front of 12.000 people in Brazil. We started with Kirtan chanting. After that the audience had the opportunity to ask Krishna Das questions and so he told us about his spiritual path and shared his experience with his Guru Neem Karoli Baba. All in all, the Kirtan workshop was an excellent mixture of chants and talks. That evening everything had a positive effect on me and the atmosphere was full of energy surrounded by the smell of incense sticks, the light in the concert room, the thousand of golden Tibetan buddhas on the wall, the people and last but no least - Krishna Das with his wonderful and calming voice... and so much more, which I can’t express with words. I promise - the next chanting workshop I’m in again… Namaste, Nilu
