Thank you so much Krishna Das.. My life has been more meaningful since i’ve started to chant with you. Thank you so much.. Ram Ram 🙏🏾❤️

[@marleneengleman88]

I was given a CD of Krishna Das about a year ago. I play it in my car. It is the most amazing CD I've ever heard, an Krishna Das' voice is magic, filled with passion and love, I end up crying of such great love that fills my car and my heart...I Love Him and his Voice. Krisha, Ram.

[@KundanKumar-uc2bi]

thank you KD. You are light to many. You show the path to many. I am in gratitude to you forever. your voice is dearer than any other voice to me.

[@ppal8218]

[@gracevalentine1666]

Thank you generous teachers, Nina and KD and the wise gentle commenters ❤

[@glittermuse-1]

I can't even express how beautiful the Neem Karoli Baba chant is...I feel like I am under his blanket

[@sarakunz9580]

MAGIC - thank you for your words - it made me aware of my mind pretending to be my heart

[@GoldandPinkLight]

WOW. Transformational stuff. His response starting at 40 minutes..... Wow.... that changed me/affected me deeply. Deepest gratitude to you KD for touching and ripening my heart. RamRam

[@awakenedheartyoga7895]

I agree WOW!! I was not going to listen to it as its so long but your comment made me curious so I went to 37mins .. such deep wisdom from years of regular & sustained practice. I know we can all find these realisations if we take the time & discipline required for sadhana but to do it is another thing. Thank you so much for your comment, one never knows how far & wide the vibrations of our own actions will reach. Gratitude & Blessings to you x

[@geninha2283]

How can it be that I look for your lectures sometimes and I just hear what I need to hear? Thank you so much. Namastê, KD.

[@drgeff1]

I can not possibly thank you enough for the new chant at the 5 min mark singing to our Baba... just directly opens my heart... I love you and thank you....

[@HowardYoungEagleflight]

So beautiful , Thank you so much. Namastê, KD

[@iainmclean7020]

[@Butterfly-t6d]

Thank you Krishna Das for shining your light.

[@sasbttrr]

it's like krishna das is the reincarnation of Lord Hanuman 🙏🏻✨.. He is been sent to us to save us from all the sins in this 'kali yug'.

[@patelranna27]

Thank you so much KD for sharing all your experiences with all of us. Words are not enough how much we are grateful to you!!!

[@susanbarnett4255]

Thank you for sharing this, Krishna Das. You talk about that 'bloop' in your chest. I get that emotionally every time I write anything to you. I often start wanting to write such a small comment and then I feel I need to extend it to get all the love and emotion in, and I never can. You know . . . . :-) A smile with tears in my eyes. Happy tears, love tears.

[@gloriaellis3214]

Really nice, as always. So thank you very very much....you wonderful glow worm.

[@nishagupta2599]

Jai Neem Karoli Baba 🕉

[@laidir1000]

KD! Hope you'll take in Dublin, Ireland on your next world tour. I do believe there's enough faithful to justify such a stop off. While many of us would welcome a second coming of Jesus Christ (JC), we would settle for a second coming of Krishna Das (KD) in the meantime.

[@SuperMadCabbage]

Chris Na Murphy Amen!

[@AnandSingh-do5hu]

Jai shree Ram

[@sharadam777]

Lov the intense love that KD has for his guru That is the grace we seek

Love kd, ram dass, Watts, Campbell, Merton...on and on. I say this tho about the suns nature: it shines on all directions. On love. Hatred and the slaying of evil. Ask, where does the sun shine on the side we can’t see? Peace

[@jordanstephens95]

"It is with the inward-going mind that you eliminate the outward-going mind. You do not set about saying there is a mind and I'm going to kill it, but you seek the source of the mind. Then you will find that the mind does not exist at all. The mind, turned outwards, results in thoughts and objects. Turned inwards, it becomes itself the Self. To ask the mind to kill the mind is like making the thief the policeman. He will go with you and pretend to catch the thief, but nothing will be gained. So you must turn inward and see from where the mind rises and then it will cease to exist. Whenever you are disturbed by thoughts you need merely withdraw within to the Self. This is not concentration or destruction of the mind but withdrawal into the Self. The degree of the absence of thoughts is the measure of your progress towards Self-realization. But Self-realization itself does not admit of progress, it is ever the same. The Self remains always in realization. The obstacles are thoughts. Progress is measured by the degree of removal of the obstacles to understanding that the Self is always realized. So thoughts must be checked by seeking to whom they arise. Go to their source and they will not arise." The beautiful quote by Ramana Maharshi that Krishna Das referenced in the video, courtesy of google.

[@anneinsf5194]

Really beautiful music which lightens and lights up the day. But I wish you would, in the description of the video, provide a list the names of the chants along with their starting times and ending times in the video. Just asking: it would be especially helpful for people who aren't familiar with your music.

[@electricalmindnews1838]

I want to join your hymn from india

[@TheSerenezen]

[@claudiapalazzi9145]

[@NicolasSotoBarrera]

FOR ME HE LOOK OLDMAN, THOUGH THAT EATING VEGETARIAN AND BE INTO INDIA RELIGIONS COULD MAKE AS BEEN YOUNG FOR EVER. BUT WHAT I SEE HERE, ALL OF US GROU UP OLD.

[@nobleM137]

oh peoples come back to one and only, our lord almighty ALLAH, this is only islam the true way of life, rest is man made religion.

[@ameenamayer9498]

great! but one thing: karma was a racist, classist system enforced by the Aryans to prevent intermarriage with the Dravidians. Abused animals are not abused because they have have had past karma----this line of thought is dangerous and oppressive to the suffering. do all those starving african children just have bad karma???come on- think deeper --God is not so cruel.

[@vinamrasinghai7319]

There is no genetic evidence for that. You are confused between karma and dharma. A tiger eating a deer is dharma of tiger. God is cruel or not?

[@ravindraprasad28]

Ameena Mayer plz dont say like this in india we r one aaryan n dravid its forign formula to divide us today most of the hindus knows about they divide us this fourmula will not work nymore we r new generation n we r not going to divide our country again in any cost even in our life cost we will save our india akhnd bhart om namha sivay
