Review:
“Krishna Das introduces Hanuman to the West in a personal, heart-to-heart way, a pure transmission of Hanuman. Flow of Grace is an extraordinary devotional book touching on various aspects of Hanuman ranging from who he is through why and how to chant the Hanuman Chalisa, the beautiful forty-verse chant in his honor. Having Hanuman in your life awakens you to loving service as a spiritual path, and this wondrous book provides us with a sweet and compassionate insight into Hanuman, the epitome of love and devotion.” - Ram Dass, author of Be Here Now “Like his chanting , Krishna Das' writing speaks to place deep within our own hearts. This text is infused with magic, yet it does not seem far out of reach. Through beautiful stories, and with his wonderful sense of humor, Krishna Das gently reminds us of who we truly are.” - Sharon Salzberg, author of Faith and The Force of Kindness “Wherever there is God's name there can be no unhappiness or fear. Wherever we find Krishna Das we will find God’s name. When he sings we are reminded of love invincible. By singing with him, eventually but inevitably the Flow of Grace, the power of love, will overwhelm our own hearts.” - Sharon Ganon, author of Jivamukti Yoga
Biography:
Krishna Das spent his early musical years leaning towards jazz, blues and rock and roll. When his spiritual path took him to India he was naturally attracted to the spiritual aspects of the Indian culture. Further travels that took him to the Far East and Africa continued to influence his musical perceptions adding new flavors and broadening his horizons. He has absorbed these influences, in particular Indian devotional music, and has translated this music for a western audience.
In 1990 Krishna Das founded Triloka Records. Early travels became the foundation for his work as a producer, musician, singer and songwriter and as head of A&R for the label, Krishna Das plays a pivotal role in establishing Trlloka Records as a vehicle to enable artists to offer their indigenous traditions to a new global audience.
“When I was living in India I heard much kirtan (chanting). I found that I could listen to the singers and sense the depth of their connection with God through the purity of their devotional singing. Krishna Das is an example of someone whose heartsongs open the channels to God.” - Ram Dass
