Inspire Nation Show with Michael Sandler HOW BLESSINGS & GRACE CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!! Krishna Das - The Father of Kirtan! Spirituality | Health | Self-Help | Inspire
If you've ever wanted to feel love, be love, or heal from the inside out, then do we have the show for you!
Today we'll be talking with a magical human being, and a soul-touching artist, his name is Krishna Das, he's the creator of at least 14 albums, and at the 2013 Grammy's was known as the Rockstar of Kirtans. He's also the author of Chants of a Lifetime: Searching for a heart of Gold.
Today we'll talk with him about the power of music, of chanting, and of kiertans, to touch someplace deep inside of ourselves, that's always been there, and always waiting, and how it's one possible path, to help you connect and heal your soul.
That plus we'll talk about Ram Dass, Mahara-ji, hearing tests for draft boards, a big form, why there's no pooping on the bus, (Blue Oyster Cult) turning down a record deal, and how to discover our own oceanness even as we're waves.
