He relates to life through rhythm, harmony and resonance. Where other people speak, he listens. And when he speaks, everybody around him listens. When he writes it is melodious. Every word chosen carefully, every sentence lovingly crafted, every paragraph composed meticulously. And when he sings he creates a field of deep resonance and spaciousness. Meaning emerges through his thoughtful compositions.

But let’s start from the beginning. The beginning of our relationship, his and mine. We met in a Yoga Center in Heidelberg. And as all meaningful stories go, this was not by accident. Little did we know that resonance brought us together when we first met in this place which happened to be called Naad.

Naad is the essence of all sound through which the infinite can be experienced.

I lived in Heidelberg at the time, and Gurprakash made is way across the border from Holland because he wanted to find out how to be in the Naad. And there we stood, two well-meaning souls in the Naad at the beginning of our journey into Oneness. We not only started working together but soon enough became life-partners, too. Ever since I have been honoured to witness Gurprakash’s sound travels with sneak peaks into his earlier musical explorations, the period of his life when he played in different bands trying hard, and almost signing a record deal with Sony.

Then came yoga and along with it a whole new world of sound. Gurprakash allowed seven years to explore and integrate the consciousness of mantra before he decided to offer his version of seven Sadhana chants, which are part of the early morning discipline in Kundalini Yoga.
