For more than 30 years chanting has been part of my spiritual practice. It is such an easy way into the meditative state. I offer regular, by donation, programmes here at the Millthorpe Meditation Centre so that others might discover its benefit. The programme notes of a podcast with Krishna Das say:
Picture
"Layering traditional kirtan with instantly accessible melodies and modern instrumentation, Krishna Das has been called yoga’s “rock star.” With a remarkably soulful voice that touches the deepest chord in even the most casual listener, Krishna Das” known to friends, family, and fans as simply KD” has taken the call-and-response chanting out of yoga centers and into concert halls, becoming a worldwide icon and the best-selling western chant artist of all time. His album ‘Live Ananda’ (released January 2012) was nominated for a Grammy in the Best New Age album category. KD spent the late ’60’s traveling across the country as a student of Ram Dass, and in August 1970, he finally made the journey to India, which led him to Ram Dass’ own beloved guru, Neem Karoli Baba, known to most as Maharaj-ji. Given the name Krishna Das, KD began to chant as part of following the path of Bhakti yoga, the yoga of devotion.

In this episode, we discuss:
    1    Spiritual awakening and the need for a deeper connection.
    2    The potency of chanting the divine names.
    3    Chanting divine names as a way to wake up.
    4    The real meaning of divine names.
    5    The role of a teacher in the life of a contemporary seeker.
    6    The purpose of the spiritual path.
    7    Finding freedom by learning to trust ourselves."

I recommend that you listen to this podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/chitheads-from-embodied-philosophy/id1046733414?i=1000536414336 It will be time well spent.
