Day 5 : Bindhumalini Narayanaswamy : Staying Grounded in Bhakti

"Her's is a powerful soulful voice. A voice that effortlessly takes you to places you have never been to. Deep within, far away, where coherent thoughts never manage to reach. It is a voice meant to heal. It is prayer, it is absolution." - Vineeta Nair
Growing up in an Indian family steeped in a lineage of music gave Bindhumalini a head-start or should we say heart-start on the Bhakti journey. In this candid and down to earth interview, National award-winning singer, Bindhumalini shares the journey of Bhakti from the cultural to the personal, from the guru outside to the guru within, from ritual to formless and the continuous unfolding and multidimensional nuances of the path of Bhakti Yoga. Truly deep, practical, grounding, and enlightening.
