I love his singing.” – Jai Uttal Keshavacharya Das’ musical and spiritual journey has led him from the pristine mountains of Switzerland , to the ancient temples and simple monasteries of India , and now to the yoga studios and ashrams tucked within America 's bustling cities. Through it all, he remains a simple monk and lover of devotional chanting. He sees kirtan as a way to connect the performer and the listeners on a spiritual and artistic level, and an opportunity to create sacred space and invite others to enter into that space through the medium of sound. “On a deeper level, kirtan is more than just catchy Indian music,” he says. “When performed from the heart, kirtan is an offering of devotion.” -KD WELCOME BACK SURAJ KAUR!
