Workshops with Krishna Das usually include: Chanting (call and response) with musical accompaniment, stories about his Guru, readings from spiritual traditions, teachings, and discussions about life and the spiritual Path. This forum provides the opportunity for Q&A in an intimate setting.
Krishna Das first traveled to India in 1970 where he met his guru, Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaj-ji). Through Maharaj-ji, he was introduced to the devotional practice of kirtan, an ancient method of heart purification. He has released several CD's and now leads chanting workshops around the world, helping us to turn within and find our own inner understanding. Krishna Das has also been studying Buddhist meditation for more than 30 years. Sharing his heart through music and chanting is the basis of Krishna Das's own spiritual work his way of serving the Divine within himself and others.
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, with over 300,000 records sold.
His album 'Live Ananda' (released January 2012) was nominated for a Grammy in the Best New Age album category. His most recent album entitled 'Kirtan Wallah' was a west-ward-leaning project that still captures the spirit of traditional Indian devotional chants. The feature film 'One Track Heart' the story of Krishna Das was released in 2012 to rave reviews.
KD has recently announced that he will be taking a sabbatical for the remainder 2015-16 year and this will be his final west-coast live performances for some time.
