about

This album is dedicated to you.
One by one the tracks channeled through with though word 'Krishna' resonating in my heart.

Although I have been curious about everything that presents it's self in my reality, including religion, I don't have any interest to be involved in any. Krishna is the famous Hindu God easily recognised due to the flute he holds in his hands.

'Krishna' for me is a word the represents ‘Love’. The flute is a bridge or a portal through which Love animates into the breath of life. This emotion (energy in motion) manifests into sound. We hear the sound as it makes love with our receptive audio awareness. The emotion carried with it penetrates the heart and awakens our curiosity. As we follow that curiosity we journey through the portal to the source. It is the core of our own heart and simultaneously the heart of all manifest expression.

I was once meandering in the main street of an area of New Delhi known as the Pahar Ganj. This street is filled to the brim with an atmosphere of hustle and bustle. It feels like a place where local people struggle competitively to survive. A feeling of corruption and danger lurks in certain corners and undesirable back street alleyways. After a few hours in these streets it seems necessary to return to the guest house and clean the blackness of dust and pollution from one’s nose.

However, Mother India produces the nectar of love from her heart everywhere if we are ready and willing to acknowledge and receive it.
So as I was wondering aimlessly in this hectic street I saw an ordinary looking man with a humble cart made of an old wooden door on wheels. It was the kind you see very frequently, adorned with items such as cheap plastic toys and cigarettes. There was also a collection of pictures of Hindu Gods and Goddesses. I always found these images to be very childish looking, distasteful and lacking of the depth I felt such magical beings might deserve.
Yet there always seemed to be an innocence in the style in which they were often painted that would catch my attention and charm my heart.
There was Lakshmi, the Goddess most recognised for her power to manifest wealth. There was Hanuman the heroic God of devotion portrayed in the form of a monkey, Ganesh with his head of an elephant who has the power to remove obstacles of ignorance. Shiva of course, the creator and destroyer of reality with his sacred fire and damru drum, performing the cosmic dance.
Then I looked at one picture with confusion. It is just a picture of a farmer with a white cow in a countryside setting ploughing a field. As I curiously ploughed through my ignorance in order to understand the point of the picture it was revealed to me that there was a tiny image of Krishna in the heart of the farmer. then I noticed him also hiding cheekily in the heart of the cow and residing in the heart of a tree and a bird. And even in the heart of the plough. Then in an instant I understood what is ‘Krishna’.
Since then such pictures that seem lacking in depth reveal themselves to me as ripe with deep symbolic meaning and inner direction.

So this album is dedicated born from 'Love' and dedicated to 'Love'.
