True World of Mantra and Sacred Music from India : an interview to Bapu

I personally have always considered it as a blessing for me to have been born in such a culture like Bhārat (India) with its ancient roots and its vast, bottomless, fascinating world around mystical wisdom and spiritual legacy, reflected also in all of our forms of arts expression, like music, dance and so many others.This podcast features a very interesting interview to Bapu Padmanabha, a musician from South India, who besides being a wonderful Bansuri player disciple of Hariprasad Chaurasia, is also a genuine presenter of this ancient science and ancient tradition of Mantra, Vedic chanting and other styles.The interview takes us through a journey across the world of sacred music from India and its authentic practices, what it takes to represent this tradition, how many years of learning and dedication are invested in such journey, what is the path of a musician, a teacher, a spiritual seeker and an eternal student, when it comes to music from India.Besides other long and patient trainings, just to start with Bapu’s training in chanting, we know that he dedicated around twelve years, every single day, two hours per day... on getting trained in the atmosphere of this discipline, in a Hindu Vedic school in South India, knowing that this is the required patience and dedication to honor this tradition.Listen more to his interesting stories and answers to questions from Manish Vyas in this interview. Specially conceived for lovers of traditions from India, its music and the science of Mantra.You can also find a video about Bapu’s music and work in this link, when he contributed to the upcoming documentary, “The True World of Mantra and Sacred Music from India”: https://youtu.be/DlqABwkXwbs
