BAUL IS an ORAL and INTANGIBLE
CULTURAL HERITAGE of HUMANITY
UNESCO 2005
___________________
When the UNESCO made this declaration they did not talk to any real Bauls, they gave some '9 million Dollars' to a Bangladeshi UN official who obviously thought this was a good way to line his pockets and disappear he made up stories about Baul being from Persia and completely fabricated his story?
Baul is only an Oral Sanskrit tradition, the Poems were then converted to Bengali and sang in 'Birbhum Bengali' so the villagers so they could understand.
Baul is Extinct, Baul History and Her-story were complete decades ago.
Baul has been preserved and archived decades ago by 'Babu Kishan' and his family long ago. There is no Baul to be archived, it has been done already. What Baul needs are translators.
What people are doing today is a cultural appropriation. There is only One lineage of Baul the 'Das Baul and Dasi Lineage and that is this lineage, all Bauls follow this lineage from Ekachakra Birbhum W Bengal. They sing the songs of this lineage, they dress like this lineage, they go where they do and follow them now around the world.

A message from Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das to New Baul Singers:
www.babukishan.org
Today 2017 people love Baul song due to my family and our dedicated lifetime work of pioneering Baul around the world for over 70 years before there was Facebook, can you even imagine how difficult it was.
Before my family nobody knew who and what Baul was, we are the only lineage of Baul going back thousands of years. We have always been around and in the villages of Bengal as Guru's and teachers the spiritual newspaper before the newspaper. The original Das and Dasi Hare Krishna singers and dancer. My Grandfather and Guru Nabani Das Khyappa Baul was part of the Freedom Movement in India singing before Nehru gave his speeches as Baul has always been known as the biggest attention intoxicating through the honey of their song.
Nabani Das Khyapa Baul sang for Nehru before all his talk all over India. Then my parents (Purna Das Baul and Manju Dasi) and myself (Krishnendu Das aka Babu Kishan) did the same for Indira Gandhi and her son's Sanjay and Rajiv Gandhi. We sang on thousands of stages all around India hundreds of times.
My parents and the women in my lineage were legendary, they are the first and we are the only Lineage of Baul. Nobody in Baul every said Lineage except me and now there are others making up stories that are not true.
"So please go in a smooth flow like a trance of river and sing for Moner Manush, just saying because I am watching someone's youtube who is singing my Grandfather poetry but naming a different poet? Don't be fake, we know you are, don't make people stupid or saying you and setting up for preservation. Baul is already preserved my dear, that is why you are singing the songs from my Lineage.
Even though people are liking but they mostly do not have any training in Baul music or musical ability, of course they are screwing the wonderful lineage of Baul!
We didn’t have internet back then and it was so difficult to communicate and travel around the world. The hard time we had to make a road very easier for new comers!! I always encouraged every new Baul singer.
From what I hear they (the new Baul singers) are not Baul Masters and need voice lessons, beyond voice lessons, development of voice quality, you cannot even sing in a cord or track!!
Just singing Sakhi re…… then what, or trying be more tourist attractions spinning hair around and theatrical Bauls then Sadhana? They need more and more practise, all my life I composed music for World's top musicians and recorded singer like Lata Mangaskar and Asha Bhosle and many other. You can call me egotistical but it is my lineage I am an award winning music composer. I know tone and pitch and you are way, way out of tune and tone.
Be a Baul do great work, help people and inspire people but don’t make up 4 generations and sing the songs from my lineage giving other poets names it has already been recorded and documented before you were born. If someone gave you miss information that is not my problem it is yours.
Please do the practise and don't makeup stories and drama, just be true Baul!!
Love u all, my blessing with all my brothers and sisters, don't try to be Nabani Das Khyapa Baul or Baul Samrat Purna Das, just salute them have a great respect for them they are the one who gave you a chance to be Baul!!
Joy Guru!! Don't even try to be them, you cannot even dream!! You don't even know how was hard to making this Baul from a village to International platform!! Not easy, and ofcourse only are one which is the last oldest BaulLineage in Bengal and World!!
Don't make stories, first learn how to sing and do Sadhna of Baul!! Just keep focus on what you are doing!! Who can sing like Purna Das Baul, Manju Dasi, Radharani Dasi, Brajabala Dasi or any of my lineage? We are the only lineage, I can tell you who everybody is and where they came from except for the new Bauls who are young and now I am seeing these bizarre stories.
"Kichhu Din Mone Mone"
Kichchu Din Mone Mone was written by the one and only
Nabani Das Khyapa Baul.
Nabani was Rabindranath Tagore's friend and the only Baul to initiate Tagore into this Baul lineage, he gave Tagore the Baul name Ravi (Robi) Das Baul.Paul
One of the best Baul kirtan written and tuned by my Grandfather and Guru Nabani Das khyapa Baul. It was officially recorded by my father Purna Das Baul in the 1960's at India's First Record company, Hindustan Records.
Kicchu Din Mone Mone was written by Nabani Das Khyapa Baul and it is part of this lineage Baul.
Lineage Baul Parampara Sampradaya the only Baul lineage.
This is a very simple recording of my Grandfather Nabani Das Khyappa Baul song, singing by me his grandson Babukishan, aka Krishnendu Das Baul. The sound is not great but it was recorded in 2002 in California on a simple recorder.
This song belongs to this lineage and credit to Baul Saint Sri Nabani Das Khyapa Baul. No one would even know about this song if it were not for my family rather than making up new lineages, tell the truth, know the truth.
New Baul singers are making up stories and new lineage that never existed before and leaving out where the songs originated from or putting in different poets names.
Please have respect for our Baul songs if you sing or record songs from this lineage please say who the Baul poet is and if you do not know, do not make it up.
Love song of Radha Krishna

A rare photo Of Nabani Das Khepa Baul and his Son Purna Das Baul the last of the Authentic Vaishnava Bauls of Birbhum. 1940's.
No funny business Nabani was a serious Sadhana (Tantric Baul Yogi).

Legendary Lineage Bauls 1978 Australia Purna Das Baul and Manju Dasi
1982 -
Who is sitting in the audience in the front row, while Babu Kishan's father is performing Authentic the only Lineage Baul music?
Do you see Indira Gandhi in the front row she was a student of Babu's Grandfather Guru Nabani Das Khyapa Baul at Vishva Bharti where Nabani Das Baul.
Nabani Das Khyapa Paul was the first and only Baul Guru (professor appointed) by Rabindranath Tagore to teach Baul at Vishva Bharti and Indira Gandhi was his student because her father Nehru has Nabani Das Khyapa Baul sing all over India for him, Nehru knew the drawing power of Nabani Das Khyapa Baul, this is part of the Freedom Movement and History of India.
Later, Babu Kishan's father Purna Das Baul and his wife Manju Dasi sang for Indira Gandhi, then so did Babu Kishan, they sang for Sanjay Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi before their political talks. There are many stories to be told and the now President of India Pranab Mukerjee was completely devoted to Indira Gandhi. They all were so close and there are many stories to be told.
Sitting in the audience is also, the President of India then Zail Singh seventh President of India, serving from 1982 to 1987. Indira Gandhi and all the Cabinet Ministers of India, including todays President Pranab Mukerjee who is also by the way Babu Kishan's uncle on his mothers side. Indira Gandhi was also, Babu Kishan's family friend his mother Manju Dasi was her great friend. Babu remembers being at their house all the time. One time he was a book beside her bed and he asked her what the book was, she said, the Bhagvada Gita and read it every night.
Purna Das Paul was performing because it was Jawaharlal Nehru birth anniversary in Delhi Teenmurti Bhavana. Hey and Babu Kishan was there too. This was his life, he has been there done that.
This is lineage, mystical and intellectual Baul beyond.

Radharani Dasi's parents Mother.. Brajabala Dasi and Father Brajabala Dasi...
When Babukishan created the Guduri in the 1970's his thought was that it was a symbol of Love and Unity among all people.. as the Ektara or Gopi Chand is a symbol of Peace Love and Unity for the Bauls the Guduri was created with this in mind.. Nabani Das Khyeppa Baul wore a real patchwork dress but it was somewhat different than what Babukishan created and the Bauls are wearing today.
Guduri, this patchwork dress that the Bauls are wearing today was created by Babukishan in the 1970's, as an attractive dress for Purna Das Baul. This costume was on record covers, magazines covers and festival performances all over the world. He created this multi coloured dress for a symbol of oneness, unity and peace for the world. A Symbol of no caste, no creed, all colors in one, multi-cultural.
Babu created this dress for his dad because in his mind he wanted to preserve Baul and while they were attending all the festival, concert hall, and doing lectures this dress would draw to what Baul was a multi coloured lineage.
Most Baul performers are wearing this dress today without even knowing who the master minded behind it is. Babukishan would go around to all the tailors and collect bright colors and his mother Manju Das would sew them together by hand creating this bright Baul costume.
Babu wanted that dress to promote his father Purna Das Baul at all festivals around the world including Poush Mela. Babukishan at first was endlessly criticized about this patchwork Guduri. However, hen his Dad first started wearing many fell in love with it and he received many compliments from people such as Dr. Ananda Shankar Roy, Priya Ranjan Dasmunsi, Pranab Mukerjee now President of India and his wife Mrs Subra Mukerjee. Tv Producer Abhijit Das Gupta, Jyoti Basu W Bengal former chief Mininster, Diretor General of India Radio. Dr Bhupeen Hazarika, Mithun Charabhorty, Bapi Lahari.. MF Huissen, Amarta Sen, Chuni Goswami and Allen Ginsberg they were all Babu's well wishers and they all loved his design, the design the new Bauls are wearing and do not even know where it came from.

The Legendary Baul Saint, Guru, Avadhuta, Sri Nabani Das Khyappa Baul, and his Grandson Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das Baul... Living Master of Baul and Bhakti Yoga. Nabani Das Baul was a Guru to many, he was Rabindranath Tagore's Baul Guru, the Baul who inspired and was best friends with Rabindranath. Nabani Das Baul was legendary.
Sri Nabani Das (Gosain) Khyappa Baul and his wife Brajabala Dasi both Baul Guru's
This Video below was recorded by Krishnendu Das Baul.. aka Babukishan
This is a recording of Babukishan's uncle Laxshman Das Baul recorded in the USA 1967, although the album was a huge success the Baul's never recieved any money from any of their early recordings in the USA.
"Linda Fleming _ My old friend Brian Davison, drummer of The Nice and Gong had this record and said if you listen carefully you can hear Bob Dylan singing on it.
Babukishan's beautiful Pure Vaishnava Baul 'Grandmother' Brajabala Dasi probably one of the last authentic Baul women from this lineage. Brajabala Dasi raised Babu Kishan until he was 8 when Nabani passed into samadhi she sent him to Calcutta to be with his birth Mother Manju Dasi and Father Purna Das Baul. Brajabala taught Babu Kishan taught him all the stories orally in Sanskrit through until she passed in the 1990's, a very very sweet person she was very much his Vaishnava Baul Guru.
Old Statue in Shantiniketan Bhirbum W Bengal India of Sri Nabani Das Khyeppa Baul this statue was commissioned by Rabindranath Tagore in honor of Nabani Das Baul whom he loved.. Perhaps one day soon we can get it restored in Nabani's memory he was one of the last origninal Bauls, the Bauls consider Nabani Das a Baul Saint..

Ravi (Robi Baul).
