relationships, struggles, joys, and routines are the spiritual
path.

This time on Pilgrim Heart, Krishna Das opens our hearts
to:


The divine play (Leela) and mysterious grace behind
Maharaj-ji Neem Karoli Baba’s actions

Krishna Das’ experiences with the Dalai Lama 

Embracing aging with grace, staying rooted in present-moment
awareness, and living in truth

The story of Neem Karoli Baba and the haunted tree

Offering the positive karma and merit from chanting practices
for the healing of all beings

Holding space for global peace, collective happiness, and the
end of suffering and war

Working skillfully with sexual energy as a natural part of
the human experience

Learning through our relationships with others and all things

Using daily life, with all its challenges, as our spiritual
practice instead of seeking escape



About Krishna Das:


Layering traditional Hindu kirtan with instantly accessible
melodies and modern instrumentation, Grammy nominee Krishna Das
has been called yoga’s “rock star.” With a remarkably
soulful voice that touches the deepest chord in even the most
casual listener, Krishna Das – known to friends, family, and fans
as simply KD – has taken the call-and-response chanting out of
yoga centers and into concert halls, becoming a worldwide icon
and the best-selling chant artist of all time. His album ‘Live
Ananda’ (released January 2012) was nominated for a Grammy in the
Best New Age album category.


KD spent the late ’60s traveling across the country as a student
of Ram Dass, and in August 1970, he finally made the journey to
India, which led him to Ram Dass’ own beloved guru, Neem Karoli
Baba, known to most as Maharaj-ji. Krishna Das now travels the
world sharing his kirtan practice and wonderful stories of his
life, of Maharaji-ji, of his life on the Path and discusses
bringing chanting into our lives through retreats and workshops.
To date, KD has released 15 well-received albums, most recently
Trust in the Heart released in October 2017.

“When we’re not here, when we’re lost in dreamland, busyness,
distraction, we don’t experience time going by, and then boom, a
breath does not come in and we’re gone out of this body. To age
gracefully is with awareness, to be aware of what’s going on in
your life every minute.” – Krishna Das
