Chants of a Lifetime

Searching for a Heart of Gold

De: Krishna Das

Narrado por: Krishna Das

Chants of a Lifetime offers an intimate collection of stories, teachings, and insights from Krishna Das, who has been called "the chant master of American yoga" by the New York Times. Since 1994, the sound of his voice singing traditional Indian chants with a Western flavor has brought the spiritual experience of chanting to audiences all over the world. He has previously shared some of his spiritual journey through talks and workshops, but now he offers a unique book-with-audio download combination that explores his fascinating path and creates an opportunity for just about anyone to experience chanting in a unique and special way.

Chants of a Lifetime includes photos from Krishna Das' years in India and also from his life as a kirtan leader - and the audio that is offered exclusively in the book consists of a number of "private" chanting sessions with the author. Instead of just being performances of chants for listening, the recordings make it seem as if Krishna Das himself is present for a one-on-one chanting session. The idea is for the listener to explore his or her own practice of chanting and develop a deepening connection with the entire chanting experience.

This audio product contains a PDF with supporting material, and the PDF is available to download.

Beautiful. Read it. Or listen.

Truly beautiful on so many levels. It set me straight and answered questions that I’ve had about chanting; all the while entertaining me with a great adventure.

Great lessons

As I listened to this book I noted all the teachings the author imparted to the reader by walking us through their life. It was good to hear about many spiritual leaders like Ram Das from a different perspective. It was good to learn about Neem Karoli Baba from other people who followed him during his life. More teachings for those of us who weren’t there to have these teachings were imparted on us directly. The chants are great to listen to which anyone can find. I listened to this book once and will listen to it again in a few months to get the most out of it. Love the chants at the end of the book!

Excellent

So glad I purchased this book. Just started following Krishna Das. Love the chants at the end. They put my tired bones to sleep each night now . But in a good way! Lol

Amazing!

Inspiring, hypnotic and uplifting. I will be listening to this audio over and over again. And what a beautiful start to the day to chant to the kirtan collection. Looking forward to seeing Krishna Das in Los Angeles this spring!

An epic, heart opening journey

Krishna Das’ journey in this epic story had me laughing and crying. His time spent with his guru, Neem Karoli Baba, and the pain he faced after his guru left the body, opened my heart in ways beyond words. I deeply respect Krishna Das’ vulnerability and his ability to tell the many stories of his guru and the many old disciples who helped him become the man he is today.

Beautiful

Beautiful, alive heart! Didn’t want to leave it. Opened my heart again and again. Tears of joy!

Amazing. Got so much from this book.

Amazing. Got so much from this book. Wonderfully spoken. Relatable and memorable. I loved it.

So good

This book is amazing! KD is down to earth and really relatable. He has great stories and even better advice on how to deal with your own shit! He wouldn’t consider himself a great spiritual teacher but he is!

Great storytelling…..

One of my Audible favorites. Will listen agin soon. Great Kirtan are included at end of audiobook.

So inspiring!!! Just finished my second listen!

I love listening to Krishna Das’s telling of his spiritual journey. It contains such deep emotion, sweetness, heart, and inspirational stories of Neem Karoli Baba and the devotees who love(d) him. These stories bring to light the reflections and lessons learned along the way. Deeply grateful for this narrative of a fellow wave finding its identity as the ocean. 🙏
