An American who moved to Vrindavan in the early 8o\u2019s, Aindra das leads a group of kirtaniyas who maintain kirtan 24 hours a day, everyday in the temple. He lives simply, he\u2019s learned in the teachings of bhakti and he is deeply devoted to kirtan. One can always witness and experience the most amazing things at his kirtans, not just occasionally, but every evening. Here\u2019s one example. It&#8217;s a fifteen minute recording that starts slow and gradually builds. The rhythms may feel unfamiliar at first, but if you relax and give it a little time I think you&#8217;ll find a special treasure here.<\/p>\n<p>Kaustubha das<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/_multimedia\/Aindra%201a.mp3\">Aindra Das Kirtan<\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Right-click to Download as Podcast<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/_multimedia\/Aindra%201a.mp3\"><\/a><br \/>\n[audio:https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/_multimedia\/Aindra 1a.mp3]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Listen On This Site<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Related Posts: <a href=\"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/2008\/01\/27\/podcast-as-kindred-spirits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PODCAST: As Kindred Spirits<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/aindra-kirtan.jpg\" alt=\"Aindra Kirtan\" width=\"520\" height=\"325\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/09\/aindra-thumb.jpg\" alt=\"Aindra thumb\" \/><strong>PODCAST:<\/strong> A live recording of Aindra Das at the Krishna Balaram Temple in Vrindavan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[31,38,59],"class_list":["post-346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-collected","tag-kirtan","tag-podcast","tag-vrindavan"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=346"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=346"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=346"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bhakticollective.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
