Notes From the Road

Sat Nam everyone.

Here is a picture of my mother, Prabhu Nam Kaur teaching a Gurubani Kirtan class at Hargobind Sadan in San Leandro California last night. We are here getting in some good R and R after our tour and some quality grandparent time in for Jap Preet Kaur. She taught about the Shabad, Waheguru Waheguru Waheguru Wahejio that is being offered today on Spirit Voyage (www.spiritvoyage.com) for a free download in celebration of her new album just released today called "Seasons of the Soul."

This is such a wonderful moment for our whole family that this album is out. You might be wondering what the big deal is. Well let me tell you. This is the kind of Kirtan that my mother does... for years.... and somebody managed to capture it in recorded form. Ramdass with his colleague Narayan really did it. You guys hit a home run with this. Thank you guys! The music is heavenly!! Thank you to Sahib Amar Kaur and Amar Singh for all of the beautiful flute, viola, and vocals. My goodness... the mandolin that Narayan plays is masterful, and heart opening. Manish is even on the album with his wonderful tablas and vocals. I love it! And the harmonies! Don't get me started! I absolutely love harmonies honestly. And this album is just so incredibly harmonically satisfying. So lovely. But, most of all... the absolute love and passion that my mother has for God and Guru is at the center of everything... the music, everything completely supports this love. I feel like I'm right in my mother's heart when I listen to this album. Thanx guys (Ramdass and Narayan) for producing such a lovely lovely album.

At the heart of the success of this masterful creation, I believe is the presence of God which came through Prabhu Nam Kaur, Ramdass and Narayan; that beautiful quiet presence which diligently, purposefully, masterfully, and joyfully brought forth the devotion in each and every note.

Sat Nam.
