5.0 out of 5 stars LIve On Earth (LIVE) Krishna Das, November 17, 2000

This CD brings the magic and love one experiences at a Kirtan meditation with Krishna Das to our daily lives. Krishna Das has indisputably received a gift of having the most beautiful open heart which he shares with such grace and gentility. I listened to this CD for a long time before participating in a live Kirtan(singing meditation).The first time I heard him live was when he accompanied Ram Das and there were at least 200 people chanting together. The energy he emits is one of love in its purest form. I then brought my two teenagers to a retreat with Krisnha Das. Not only did I have to bribe them to go but I promised them that if they didn't like it they could leave within the first 5 minutes. They stayed all weekend and since then have bought CD's for their friends and have learned many of the chants. After they experienced Kirtan first hand, they never asked me to play their radio station while we drove somewher again. This CD is so special because it captures the spirit of a live Kirtan allowing memories of the experience to flow through your entire being. Each chant is more special than the next one. He received the most beautiful gift from the Indian culture which allows Westerners to bring this beauty into our lives. His command of the Chaleesa is unprescedented and anyone who has heard it remarks of a load being removed off their shoulders. The market is saturated with meditation audio material..but this is by far the most remarkable source of peace, tranquility and brotherhood for all man. Each one of us has our own copy and then there is the one that lives in the magazine for the car. We never leave home without Krishna Das and the ever changing possey.

5.0 out of 5 stars A message of universal love, August 16, 2002

By 

Govind Seshadri (Bangalore, India) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Live on Earth (Audio CD)

When I first came across Krishna Das, I did not know what to expect. He was an intriguing enough subject. Here was a western Hindu convert, who had undertaken as his life mission the popularization of Bhakti Yoga - the path to eternal salvation through steadfast devotion, often expressed by the chanting of sacred hymns. I was familiar enough with the material. In fact, I was literally steeped in it, as a Hindu who had grown up in India. Nevertheless, I did approach the album with a mixed sense of curious apprehension (much akin to to the polite skepticism most Westerners would feel at the thought of a prodigy native Tibetan singing the Ave Maria, notwithstanding reputed prowess). And yes, like Latin, Sanskrit pronunciation can be quite difficult - even for many native Indians, let alone the western tongue.

But truth be told. Any doubts vaporized as I listened to Das's renditon of the first line of the first track on the first cd: "Radhe Radhe Radhe Shyam Govinda Radhe Jai Shree Radhe". A connection was made. Simply put, what followed was a three hour excursion to the inner depths of latent spiritual conciousness on the Dharma Spaceship. It would be a hapless exercise to try and further describe in words the deepest feelings of compassion, peace and fellowship that this music evokes. Experience the magic Krishna Das and join the family of universal love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invocation, February 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Live on Earth (Audio CD)

This CD offers several stellar chants that swept me away. The Shri Hanuman Chaleesa is incredibly beautiful. I am compelled to learn the 40 verses in order to sing along. I first heard a Krishna Das CD while practicing yoga. The ability to bring this richness into my daily life is a great honor. If you are seeking serenity, joy and beauty, I highly suggest you check out this double CD.
