When our desires are fulfilled, and we still feel unhappy – this is the moment we begin the process of letting go.

Krishna Das

Let’s just chant and be good people, alright?
KRISHNA DAS

Chant Goodness People
I knew that if I did not start chanting with people, that I would never be able to clean out the dark corners of my own heart. I knew it with every cell in my body and mind.

Devotion is a way of being, it’s not something you do. It’s dedication to finding awareness and Love. Chanting is like asanas for the mind and the heart.

Dedication Devotion Finding Heart Mindset Way
I chant to save my heart. Every time I sit down, that’s what I’m doing.
KRISHNA DAS

Heart Myself Save Time
This is what I do to keep my head screwed on semi-straight and keep my heart open. Whenever I sing, that’s why I sing. Whether it’s at the Grammys, whether it’s in the bathroom, whether it’s in front of 10,000 people or three people, by my guru’s grace, my head stays in that place.
KRISHNA DAS

The heart is like a mirror. When we dust it off, we are able to see ourselves. The dust is all our stuff – guilt, anger – this stuff is reflected back to us. Practice removes the dust from the mirror of our hearts.

You can’t think yourself out of a box that’s made of your thoughts.

Compassion is a college education. It’s a doctorate.

Even if somebody tells us something, the hit, the light goes on inside of us, not out there. We learn and understand everything within ourselves.
