My Musings .. by Trishula
My life experience have been within different cultural groups. I am a world traveler, and have lived in Canada, Australia, and India. My past work related experiences have given me the opportunity to travel all over British Columbia, Europe, Canada and the United States. I have instructed women in health and healing, women's empowerment, positive thinking, yoga, and Chinese Qigong, Nada Yoga, and Sound Healing, Yoga Nidra, Shakti-Sadhana, and Indigenous Wisdom spanning 40 years.
Trishula is the name Babukishan gave to me in Haridwar India, Das is our married name. I have been a student of both eastern and western mysticism since the late 1970's, trying to understand my early experience as a child of telepathy, telekinesis, spirits, past life memory, a world so different from the world I was born into I am sure many of you know what I am talking about, however, the answers were not available to me at that time, it wasn't until years later and a very long search that I was able to understand my early life.
I am a Baul scholar initiated and tutored in the tradition by Babukishan aka Krishnendu Das Baul my scholarship is born out of experience not from the regular PHD scholarship of research interviews and field studies. I am a Baul Scholar from inside the "tradition." I have been graced and tutored by a living lineage Baul Sampradaya. Through sadhana and through thousands of hours of recording Babukishan for the preservation of this ancient Living Vaishnava Baul Sampradaya, thousands of hours listening to him sing and being told the stories 24/7 for an intensive 10 years. Babu has also tutored me in Shakti-Sadhana and all Indian Philosophy especially the authentic stories of the origins of Vaishnavism in Bengal, very rare and unique.
Everybody can learn to be a Mystic, to varying degree's depending on ones karma or past actions, to be a Mystic absorbed in Divine Love is the best. Mystics carry within them a memory from their past lives, the many lives spent in all cultures in a world as shamans, mystics, wise women and men who have an already developed a mystical six sense. The inborn Mystics arrive with a light in their eyes, it is their life challenge to keep this light burning brightly. Mysticism and Love come from the soul, mystics are already turned around and listening, they are already aware they are divinely connected to something beyond the body and mind. The body and mind can change, the soul never changes, Babukishan often says to me, ask your soul, what does your soul want?
I have raised two children Madison 27 and Myles 24 and I have two step daughters Anisha 26 and Manisha 20 all here in Canada.
Spanning two cultures and two countries. We are blessed with much love and many worldly challenges.
Sandi aka Trishula Das ..Trishula is my given married name from Babukishan, Das is my married passport name!

I have become a mad woman!
by Trishula Das
There is a magic, a beauty in Baul, I can not explain it, it is the magic of
the Lineage of Jai Nitai. I have become a Mad Women, now I understand what is wrong with me,
I am trying to be normal it is impossible when my beloved Babu (Krishnendu)
sings and I forget everything. I enter another world and can not function in this world of the mind.
I have listened to teachers for over 30 years, I have been to every western
Kirtan although beautiful it is not where the Baul lives. It is not the same as
the Mad Men and Women of the HEART. How do I explain, perhaps you can understand
the soil is different in India. The energy is different when you travel to
sacred sites. The air is full of Shakti, well it is the same with Baul, they are
from the Soil and Soul of Bengal of India and Shakti full.
I have spent years singing "Western Kirtan"
with some of the best Western Kirtan Mystics or shall I call them singers?
I have wandered India and this Baul has captured me Baul has made me a MAD Women.
I could not understand the reaction Babu would recieve in India when he sings. I
thought these people are Mad, the Women touch me and thank me. I thought what is
going on? Are these Mad Women too? I have mantra-ed, studied and read the
scriptures in a western sense and have learned there is a big difference between a western book tradition of personal opinions of copy and paste, it does not even come close to the original meaning, the original Rasa or Bhava is different,
Baul is from a esoteric oral living lineage, Baul has taken me beyond into the madness of the HEART.
I can use words like Ananda, Bliss, Ecstatic, Exalted, blah blah blah, but
that does not even cover it. Words will never explain what this Baul is. The Bauls
are the Men and Women of the HEART, the Masters of the HEART of what we call BHAKTI YOGA
that is what they do but authentically, they have the key, they know the formula from thousands of years of sadhana, you can listen to Bauls on "Youtube" or on a CD this DOES not compare to the magic LOVE SPELL, ADDICTION TO LOVE ONE FEELS when you hear, A LIVE WIRE BAUL FROM BENGAL.
They are an Ocean of Bhakti, not your regular singers or dancers. Their's is the dance
of LOVE OR THE HIGHEST PREMA, Magical Mystical Mystery of Love. They are the Living Lineage of Jai Nitai known as Gosai, thank Krishna for hiding them from angry English men and thousand of years before.
Baul is a current of LOVE that sweeps you off your feet and out your mind,
it fills the air from thousands of years of the history of Love. Baul singing!....Baul Kirtan ...If I
could bottle it I would be THE GENIE OF LOVE.
It is rare and that is why in some ways I prefer to keep him to myself. I can write about Baul but that is just mere
words full of the mind.
I am a mad women, oh my God what will I do??
I hear Babu start the drone of the EKTARA or GOPI CHAND,
oh no there he goes again, how will my mind survive another day of this, after all I have a Western
Mind, I have work to do, I have a sanity to maintain, then it happens my mind is
gone for another day as he starts to sing, I am a lost hopeless a Servant of the
Heart, another day of not knowing time of space. Oh God I am a madwomen of the
heart. There is no logic to this place. NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY BAULS ARE CALLED DAS & DASI.. Masters of the Heart they serve all HEARTS.. with kind words and acceptance of all, they do not like the rules and regulations of the orthodox and prefer to be a bird flying free... they do not like to walk they like to fly.
Tears steaming down my face not knowing what to do, I have nothing to hold
onto, there is no ground under this, I am grateful beyond the depth of my being.
What did I do to deserve this, now I know after a lifetime of karma good and bad
there is also GRACE.........
This is the biggest Grace to be a Madwomen of the Heart, at least it is just
a glimpse but it is something, it is pure Gold never to be worn..the gold glow
of the Heart.. a Heart of GOLD.. To be born a Baul is the greatest gift that God
can give to any Bhakti wanna be THAT IS ME....I am sorry I PREFER to keep him to
myself.....
I have become a MAD WOMEN of the HEART...When I read what some scholars have
written about Baul, I think they just don't get it. It is not about anything you
write, Man or Women it is about the HEART! I PREFER to keep him to
myself BECAUSE I HAVE BECOME A MAD WOMAN OF THE HEART

MY 'AMAR MONAR MANUSH':
MY MAD MAN OF THE HEART, BABUKISHAN AKA KRISHNENDU DAS BAUL
Babukishan knew Sri Anandamay Ma personally as they are both Bengali's. Ananadamayi Ma loved Baul singing and invited them often to her Ashrams to sing for her as special guests. Although Anandamayi Ma never met Nabani Das Baul she heard about him and asked SitaramDas Omkarnath many questions about Nabani. She was strongly associated with Sitaram Omkarnath who was Babu's father's Guru... and Babu loved him dearly... they were all like family.
