Radio Ananda is honoring the incarnations of Babaji/Krishna in our celebration of Babaji Janmashtami day. Though millenniums separate these two great incarnations, their presence upon the earth have uplifted the conscious of all mankind. We are so grateful for the love that God has shown his children in sending his enlightened ones to show us the way.
Please join us in celebrating Babaji / Janmastami day with our host Emersen, a member of the 2021 Ananda Village Internship program as he shares music, inspirational stories about Babaji’s life from Autobiography of a Yogi and his own experiences while participating as an intern at Ananda Village in California.
Event Starting Time
California: 2:00 pm – Mexico City: 4:00 pm – New York: 5:00 pm
Visit World Time Buddy for times in your area. 🙂
You can listen in with our “website player” or “mobile apps“.
May you be inspired by the life of Babaji / Krishna and remember Lahiri Mahasaya’s promise: “Whenever anyone utters with reverence the name of Babaji, that devotee attracts an instant spiritual blessing.”
Soul Calls: Krishna’s Flute
Swami Kriyananda
Play Krishna’s Flute
I’ve heard your flute high on a cloud;
Your call I can’t resist!
Oh, let me come and play with you:
We’ll scatter music with the dew,
And sound the morning mist.
I’ve heard you piping on a hill;
All else I’ve set aside.
Oh, let us dance the mountain peaks,
We’ll skip with breezes on the creeks
And soar the valleys wide!
Flute or whistle interlude
Your flute has called me to the fields;
Now I’ve no place to live.
Don’t send me back rejected, Friend.
Whatever I call mine must end.
All that I am, I give.
I hear your flute in ev’ry tree,
In ev’ry flow’r and stream,
And sweetest melody of all —
A song that heaven’s joy recalls —
Here in my heart you seem!

About Ananda Music
“Music is so much more than entertainment. It doesn’t merely reflect a state of consciousness: It also generates it.” — Swami Kriyananda
Ananda Music began in 1964 when Donald Walters (also known as Swami Kriyananda) was inspired to introduce a new kind of music to the world: music that expresses spiritual aspiration and a desire for a more meaningful way of life. This music is, as its purpose suggests, quite simple, yet beautiful. Find out more about Ananda Music.
