Mantra Music & The Path of Sacred Sound

Mantra music, or kirtan is a growing phenomenon in the west. Over the past decade, as yoga has become more popular, so too has kirtan. What most people who go to a kirtan gathering or concert will say is that it enlivens you, lifts you up– and then takes you on a journey inward. My guest for this podcast is Aleah Gandharvika, a kirtan singer who has traveled the world for over a decade with her partner in the kirtan duo the Love Keys. She’s performed at thousands of events and festivals in over 15 countries – and has toured with other kirtan artists including Shantala, Adam Bauer, and Tina Malia. Aleah is also a vocal coach and facilities Bhakti Yoga immersions. In today's episode, we’re going to take a deep dive into the mystical world of mantra… Our program begins with a short two-minute performance by Aleah, which, unfortunately, doesn’t have the best sound due to zoom, but I decided to keep it in the podcast because you can still feel the deep beauty of her voice and transmission. Enjoy!

Trauma, Art & The Spiritual Path

My guest today is Dr. Sally Adnams Jones– She is an expressive arts educator, researcher, counselor, and author of the book Art Making with Refugees and Survivors which was published in 2018. The book has become deeply relevant to our times, especially as refugees from the Ukraine War are flooding into Europe, the US and Canada. But also as climate change and all the natural disasters that come with it are uprooting people from their homes and communities. The US National Art Education Association has also endorsed her book to it’s 1800 members to use as a resource in their classrooms to be become more trauma informed and to understand how art educators can facilitate healing through the expressive arts. (Quite an accomplishment!) Today we’re going to talk about her book and the intersection between art, psychology, and spirituality…

Finding Shared Identity & Purpose Despite Differing Views

One of the most important aspects of our spiritual journey is community — being able to come together with like-minded people on the same path, who share a similar view. However, the potential danger of this is getting caught in an echo chamber and therefore not being able to perceive when or where we might be getting detoured. My guest for this episode of the Karmic Warrior podcast spent nearly 2 decades building an interfaith community of spiritual and religious leaders committed to promoting global peace and healing. Reverend Charles Gibbs is an Episcopal priest, Sufi, visionary, peace builder and poet, and today he’s going to share his insights about the challenges of bringing people together of different spiritual and religious views and how these challenges can ultimately lead to a profound sense of shared identity and purpose.
