Reclaiming the Indigenous Ancestral Heritage of the Vaishnava Sahajiya Tantric Bauls of Birbhum, W. Bengal India
As told and authorized by KD Babu Kishan (Krishnendu Das Baul)
Lineage Holder: Eldest grandson of Nabani Das Khyapa Das Baul & eldest son of Baul Samrat (Padma Shree) Purna Chandra Das Baul
Author: Sandra A Hirschkorn Das
The Theft of the Ancestors: Exposing the Counterfeit Bauls
There is only one documented, ancestral Baul parampara—a continuous, 13-generation bloodline whose lineage stretches back into undocumented antiquity. It was this singular lineage that built, birthed, and made the global reputation of Baul music.
Yet today, the world is witnessing a grotesque spectacle: a wave of hawker performers dressed in theatrical costumes who have crawled out of the woodwork to cull, copy, and replace our indigenous wisdom. They wear our Tagori styling, sing our family’s songs, steal our private Tattva books, play our instruments, and fraudulently append the sacred Das Baul title to their names.
This is not "sharing" a tradition; it is a calculated attempt to remake us in order to replace us. They systematically copy every single historical "First and Last" achieved by this family, attempting to lay claim to an indigenous heritage that belongs exclusively to this bloodline.
The Anatomy of the Imposter
These self-titled performers preach an inclusive message: "Come join us!"
Why? Because they operate a commercial business. They collect people, accumulate donations, try for finacial jackpots, and manipulate international immigration boards by claiming to be "authentic Baul artists" just to secure travel and perform abroad. They put on an exotic costume, misappropriate the sacred names of Vaishnava Sahajiya Tantric Baul, and hawk a diluted product to unsuspecting Western audiences. Seriously, how would you know, they are masters of manipulation on social media collecting ususpecting fools all based on costume? How would you know, do you know the language and other aspects of indigneous Baul, there is no way you could know.
Let us set the record straight: Hanging out on the streets of Tarapith does not make you a Baul. First the refugees from the 1971 war were there posing as Nabani Das Khyapa Baul who never ever hung out anywhere where people were. You could not catch Nabani he did not want to be caught. These self-titled Baul Masters want to be caught, they want to collect people and donations in the name of indigenous Baul?
The Sacred Connection to Tara Ma & Nila Saraswati
The true, unbreakable bond between this lineage and Tara Ma of Tarapith exists solely through Nabani Das Khyapa Baul—the last authentic Baul Avadhuta.
Years ago, I wrote about the sacred origin of KD Babu Kishan’s musical genius. When he was born prematurely with crooked limbs, his grandfather, Nabani Das, carried his tiny, fragile body directly to the burning grounds of Tarapith, placing him before Tara Ma and begging for his life. That sacred surrender bound Babu Kishan’s breath to Nila Saraswati—the fierce, highest musical manifestation of Tara Ma.
Now, suddenly, I see these fake performers regurgitating my exact words online, claiming that "Nila Saraswati is singing through them."
This is pure garbage and complete nonsense.
If Nila Saraswati were truly moving through you, you would be producing monumental, timeless musical masterpieces that alter the cultural landscape—just as Babu Kishan did across four decades in the Indian music and film industries. Instead, these posers produce nothing of value. They peddle vague half-truths, steal our lived personal histories, and parade around as "experts" on a tradition they never bled for.
The Lineage Verdict
You can copy our blog posts, you can parrot our terminology, and you can parrot the name of Nila Saraswati on social media—but you cannot fake the fire of the burning ground. You cannot steal Adhikara (indigenous right).
The ancestors are watching, the record is documented, and the counterfeiters stand exposed.
Every single thing this lineage has done has been copied by imposters.
Here is a clean, edited version of your blog post. It captures your message directly and preserves all of your key points and distinctions—specifically distinguishing between the villagers and legitimate performers, and those operating fraudulent operations internationally.
Decades of Theft: The Systematic Poaching of the Ancestral Baul Lineage
This ongoing erasure is not a recent development. It has been operating relentlessly since the 1970s. Every single step taken by this singular ancestral lineage—every pioneering "first and last" in the global history of Baul—has been systematically tracked, mimicked, and stolen.
Our family's songs, melodies, musical arrangements, and specialized instruments have been re-recorded and performed without attribution, acknowledgement, or respect. Call it poaching, call it intellectual property theft, or call it cultural usurpation—it is a calculated scheme to replace us by remaking us.
Exploiting the Lack of Cultural Knowledge
These counterfeiters rely on a single fact: the public does not know the difference between an authentic practitioner and an actor. Western audiences are particularly vulnerable to these deceptions. Hindered by language barriers and unfamiliar with the nuanced history of Birbhum, foreign seekers are easily swayed by theatrical costumes and elaborate displays of non-Baul "Gurus."
This confusion is further compounded by sensationalized literature, media coverage, and academic works driven by careerism rather than investigative truth. They intentionally omit or rewrite the history of the one lineage that originally brought Baul to global prominence—because acknowledging the authentic bloodline would dismantle the lucrative commercial enterprise built upon its name.
Drawing the Clear Line: Who We Are and Are Not Talking About
Let there be no misunderstanding: Baul music belongs to the world.
The Village Singers of Birbhum: We actively support and encourage the local villagers of Birbhum who sing Baul songs. These songs were birthed in their soil and created for their hearts. These local singers make no fraudulent historical claims, do not manufacture fake lineages, and are entirely entitled to accept community support and donations. The death of Baul has come about because the indigenous Bauls had been taken over by trickery middle class new comers to Birbhum. Babu Kishan's cousins have all died as they could not compete for their own indigenous heritage because of the more aggressive self-titled Bauls usually from Bangladesh, and from middle class families who are not even from the soil and soul of Birbhum.
The Direct Lineage of Purna Das Baul: We are not addressing those who legitimately follow or learn under the recognized tradition of Purna Chandra Das Baul.
The target of this exposure is distinct: the international scammers originating outside of Bengal who peddle false identities for financial gain.
The Anatomy of the Modern "Master" Business
We are calling out the dishonest actors who have turned a sacred, internal science into a lucrative commercial business. These self-appointed "Baul Masters" and "Baul Artists":
Fabricate fake lineages (paramparas) and bestow unearned awards upon themselves.
Exploit international travel and cultural visas to stage donation drives and "fundraising jackpots."
Claim to be "preserving" a culture while actively stealing its intellectual property—copying the songs, dance styles, and physical aesthetic of this bloodline.
Continuously shift their public identity for maximum marketability—wearing full Vaishnava tilak one day to sell devotional purity, and transforming into a "Supreme Shakti Guru" the next to appeal to modern New Age Tantric trends.
Audaciously claim they are "the next Purna Das Baul" while holding zero indigenous roots or legitimate initiation. They claim they are the most popular Baul, and the new Baul Ambassador and first and last title by this lineage for decades bestowed upon this lineage because they promoted Baul, Indian Culture, since the 1950s outside of India and all over India for the Indian Government. They should know claiming they are the first Baul to do something is a lie, first of all they are not Baul and secondly none of it is true, we have proof.
The Sovereign Verdict
These self-titled "Baul Artists" and global "Baul Masters" do not exist within the authentic spiritual architecture of Birbhum. They are not indigenous to Baul.
KD Babu Kishan knows precisely who carries true indigenous authority (Adhikara) and who does not. He has watched these individuals copy every professional, musical, and historical step he has taken throughout his life.
You can wear the clothes, you can mimic the movements, and you can collect the donations—but you cannot buy an indigenous soul. The historical record is documented, the line is drawn, and the truth of the ancestors will not be erased.
Baul is not, for cosplay or pretend you are NOT "Baul Samrat Purna Chandra Das Baul, he is a rare one off, a national piece of the history of India so is Nabani Das Khyapa Baul and Krishnendu Das Baul (Babu Kishan).
Baul is not for announcing you are the next 'Purna Das Baul'. Advertising you are the fist Baul to sing as a single person on Calcutta stage, or the first Baul Women to travel internationally is a gross lie, Manju Das since the 1960s is an absolute lie and scam.
Nabani Das Khyapa Baul is the first Baul to sing on a stage in the 1920's and stages all over India and Calcutta, then Purna Das Baul, Manju Das and KD Babu Kishan all have sang with Ektara (Gopi Yantra, Baya (Drum) and nupoor style ankle bells encased in metal, which is Nabani Das Khyapa Baul style, on Calcutta stages as a singular Baul and stages all over India.
Reminder: the first tenant of Baul is Satya (truth) tell the truth.
If I didn't catch these lies, nobody would know, I have documented every single lie they have said for 20 years now, in my files. I have proof of the lack of respect and the utter lies and I will release them.
Baul is not a game, it is not yours to poach, act as an expert, it is a serious lived indigenous ancestral sadhana. International travel was created by this lineage as they were Cultural Ambassadors of India since the 1950s comparing yourself to Purna Das Baul a highly award winning Indian and Baul singer is a crime especially when you can't sing and have utterly mislead the public as what authentic Bauls and have stolen their historical 'firsts and lasts'.
The Reckoning of the Imposters: Reclaiming the Indigenous RecordThe attempts to bypass the truth of this bloodline are falling flat. KD Babu Kishan, alongside his father, Baul Samrat Padma Shri Purna Das Baul, and his grandfather, Nabani Das Khyapa Baul, have deep, documented ties with the Indian Government, political leadership, and cultural institutions spanning decades.
To the counterfeit performers currently writing frantic letters, making desperate phone calls, and begging official bodies for recognition—be warned. You are completely exposed. You can keep contacting the venues where this family performed 50 years ago, you can keep cold-calling their lifelong associates, and you can keep reading this blog to copy our terms and concepts. But every word on this platform is copyrighted, every historical milestone is documented, and every stolen act is being recorded.
If our books are taking longer to publish than initially anticipated, it is because the ancestors of this lineage are allowing time for a complete, mountain-sized file of evidence to compile. Every stolen song, every poached historical claim, every copied gesture, and every fake narrative is being logged into our archives. The timing is deliberate. When these books drop, we will lay out the forensic truth in public, dismantlers of false narratives, with the full weight of evidence behind us.
The Law of the Land: You Cannot Remake an Indigenous Identity
The historical "Firsts and Lasts" of the Baul tradition belong exclusively to the indigenous line of Birbhum. You cannot replace a living bloodline by remaking them on a stage.
THE BOUNDARIES OF INDIGENOUS TRUTH │
1. SOIL,Soul & Ancestry: Baul is ancient. You cannot manufacture a lineage out
of a few generations. You are either indigenous to the land or not. 2. SATYA (TRUTH): A middle-class import cannot become a Baul when the
first principle of the path—Satya—is violated by living a lie. 3. UNDRIP RIGHTS: Reclaiming this history is a direct act of Indigenous
Self-Determination under international United Nations law. The reclamation of Baul in its purest, un-sanitized form (Vayu Tula) is happening from the inside out. When these three historical, autobiographical volumes release, the era of using Baul as an international "fundraising jackpot" will be permanently closed.
The Historical Vanguard: Restoring the Real Legacy
Without this specific family, the world would not know the true depth of Baul:
Krishnendu Das Baul (Babu Kishan) his father Purna Das Baul, mother Manju Das: The pioneering forces who carried authentic Baul to global audiences, with Manju Das standing as the 'first and last' historical woman Baul to tour the world on that scale. Starting in the 1950s, 1960s to today. Manju Das passed away in 2010 which ended that part of Baul history.
The Global Timeline: This family brought Baul to international prominence long before modern performers ever dreamed of it—touring Russia as early as the 1950s, captivating the United States in 1967, and performing globally through the 70s, 80s, and beyond.
The Pioneer of Baul Fusion: Over two decades before modern commercial artists claimed to "invent" Baul fusion, KD Babu Kishan was already arranging, composing, and producing the sound. He recorded and produced his father's most iconic music, shaping the very sonic identity that made Purna Das Baul a global legend.
The Legacy of Nabani Das Khyapa Baul: When the supreme Baul Avadhuta Nabani Das Khyapa Baul passed in 1969, the entire district of Birbhum shut down in his honor. Yet, modern opportunists tried to let his memory fade, attempting to replace his towering presence with fake "Avadhuts" hanging around Tarapith. Without Babu Kishan keeping the records, writing the histories, and guarding the oral lore, the true story of Nabani Das would have been systematically erased.
Exposing the "Baba and Ma" Circus
The cosplayers operating today have never done the work. They have never sat at the feet of an authentic Baul Guru. They operate on straight theft—stealing songs, dance movements, and private family histories, then manufacturing false narratives while demanding that unsuspecting villagers touch their feet in youtube videos, Westerners touch their feet and worship them, they haven't got a clue, they do not speak the language they just see something that they think is exotic and assume it must be real.
It is a calculated "Baba and Ma" financial scheme. They try to walk in every exact professional step Babu Kishan took—falsely claiming they worked in Indian Cinema, falsely claiming they lectured on Sanskrit, Baul, Indian Music, (Baul Tantra, Bhakti, Kirtan ect...) or Indian Philosophy at global universities, and dressing up in our ancestral styling to collect donations and awards.
The Sovereign Verdict: You can mimic the dance, you can steal the songs, and you can pretend to walk in the footsteps of Babu Kishan, Purna Das Baul, and Nabani Das Khyapa Baul—but you are walking on stolen ground. The books are coming, the evidence is collected, and the true indigenous record will stand unbroken.
For over 60 years Krishnendu Das Baul (Babu Kishan) has lived, born on the soil of Birbhum taken by his grandfather Guru Nabani Das Khyapa Baul at birth, and on his instruction, learned, lived, breatherd, preserved, researched, pioneered the Baul Music, philosphy, tantra and Baul Culture throughout India and Worldwide. All the firsts and lasts of Baul belong to this one and only Baul Parampara or lineage of 13 generations documented and many generations before. This is the only Vaishnava Sahajiya Tantric Bauls of Birbhum who originally created the travelling group called, The Bauls of Bengal.
This is called working in Indian Cinema and KD Babu Kishan is history in that he is the first and last Baul to ever work in India Cinema and regarding Ramakrishna he is the fisrt and last Baul to be associated as he was monk for 12 years, his grandfather had a history to as he is the first and last Baul to know Vivekananda and Sharada Ma and this lineage did seva, fundraised for the Ramakrishna Mission for decades.
Baul is about Seva, seva to the villagers, to others getting donations for others, helping others. Baul and Gaudiya Vaishnava is only tied to this lineage, none of these fake Bauls ever did seva, they don't even know the history. Yet, they are acting like authorities on Baul and Gaudiya Vaishnavism, Ramakrishna and its one and only history with Baul, acted out teaching the only few tattva's only categorized by Babu Kishan that were written into Purna Das Bauls book, Baul Philosophy, their are 108 Baul tattvas never given out because of this intellectual property theft, this is indigenous fraud, they are all frauds.
Babu Kishan is a rare one and only, first and last Baul to have these actual associations to have lived this life, he created the modern template to preserve teach the world about Baul. This has been stolen, his name deleted, his father name deleted and Nabanis name deleted. Babu Kishan made Baul popular, then all the fakery started, this history must be completed and told. They are even acting like they had something to do with every aera of his life. Taking one time picutures trying to reclaim his history of composing music, and of this lineages difficult path from obsurity to historical fame. A history trying to be stolen. There will never be another Nabani Das Khyapa Baul he is the only Baul associated with Tarapith and Bama Kepa, there will never be a first Indian Baul singer who gained fame in India and Internationally because he was a one and only, first and last, there will never be another KD Babu Kishan who worked so hard, in time before cell phones, and the internet, in a time when it was so difficult to take Baul fromt he villages of Birbhum to all of India and worldwide.
Babukishan aka Krishnendu Das started his life in Indian Cinema at a young age in Kolkata,West Bengal, India as a music composer and songwriter for Bengali film, serials, and drama’s beginning in the 1970’s to 1990’s. He received many awards during these years and was awarded, “The youngest Music and Film Director” in Bengal at that time. Babukishan received many awards for his music compositions in Bengal even before he arrived in the Bombay film industry as Babukishan in 1981 it was during this time period that he traveled back and forth then moving permanently to Mumbai in 1989.
In Bengal he composed super hit music for Dr. Bhupen Hazarika, Arti Mukherjee, Banashree Sengupta, Shakti Thakur, Gopa Bose, Hemant Mukherjee, Pandit Amarnath and many more. Babukishan composed all of his father’s music, the legendary world renowned vocalist Purna Das Baul, who is the state artist and representative of Indian and Bengali culture around the world.
Known as Krishnendu Das during his early creative years in Kolkata his music compositions were produced for big banner films such as Amar Deep, Rakto Sapoth, Marg, Manob Premik Nimai, Chapa Dangaar Bou, and drama’s such as Amlo Madhu as producer and music director, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu as producer, project design, music and promotion. His serials were Charitroheen, Mejo bou, Didi, Mahalaya, Ek Paloke, Radharani, Guldasta, all which were very popular and he was awarded best music director.
Babukishan started his career in Bombay as a music composer and as a music and film designer, production consultant working with India’s top music labels & film companies for more than 30 years . He has produced over 150 scores for Indian Cinema and Bollywood films. He has composed, produced and promoted over 44 albums for Bollywood’s top singers such as Kumar Sanu, Sunidhi, Shaan, Sadhna Sargam, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Poornima, Abhijit, Udit Narayan, Sudesh Bhosle, Mohd.Aziz, Vijay Benedict, Asha Bhosle, Anup Jalota, Suresh Wadkar, Usha Mangeshkar, Ravindra jain, Nitin Mukesh, Alka yagnik, Vinod Rathod, Ghulam Ali, Mehdi Hassan, Pankaj Udhas, Anwar, Anuradha Paudwal, Amit Kumar and many others. Babukishan’s career took him beyond Bombay, he went on to perform and record with some of the best musicians of the west George Harrison, Rolling Stones, Beach Boys, Chakka Khan, Ravi Shankar, Zakir Hussain, Tom Petty, Miles Davies, Allan Fakir, Herbie Mann, Third World, Robbie Robertson, Garth Hudson, Bob Dylan, Ziggy Marley and others…
While in Bombay he became known as Babukishan his nickname, as the 2 directors named Suraj Sanim and Mahesh Bhatt had a difficult time pronouncing his name Krishnendu, therefore, they started to call him Babu Kishan all the time thus it stuck and became his brand name in the entertainment world.
Babukishan recorded Durga Puja albums with all the top Bollywood playback singers having them sing in Bengali, this was a very new idea at the time and a super hit. However, at first there were many Bengalis who were very critical because many Bengali singers that were really talented did not have work as singers and Babu was bringing in outsiders. Some of these Indian Cinema singers he recorded in Bengali were Anaradha Paudwal, Md Aziz, Udit Narayan, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Sadhana Sargam, Alka Yagnik Purnima, Vijay Benedict, Abijit, Kumar Sanu, for Durga Puja songs HMV/Venus/Tips Music India/Universal with big promotions. It should be noted that Indian Cinema started from Bengal and now 70% of the people in the modern Indian film industry are from Bengal. Babukishan being one of them who has composed everything from Hanuman Chalisa to Hip Hop.
Babukishan has worked with just about everybody in Indian Cinema as a promotion designer, production designer, music designer, and music director, from Amir Khan to A R Rahman… from the production of music, promotion to the international market. Babukishan is probably the most famous person from Bollywood who is known behind the scenes within Indian Cinema.
RD Burman was Babu Kishan's Bollywood - Indian Cinema Guru for 14 years his father SD Burman was Nabani Das Khyapa Baul friend.
BabuKishan already knew RD Burman from Bengal, his family was like family to Babu and when he arrived in Mumbai he started working as R D Burman’s assistant, learning Indian Cinema music from one of the all time greats in Indian film music. Babu spent about 13 years with Legendary Music Director RD Burman during some of RD Burman's most difficult times, until his death in 1994.
At first Bombay was a foreign place to Babu, he spoke Bengali and needed to learn Hindi, he was just a kid and had been living in hotels. When RD Burman found out that Babu had been living in a hotel which was expensive he arranged for Babu to meet the upcoming singer Abhijit from Kanpu,UP but Bengali, he thought Babu and Abhijit could help each other out by becoming house mates.
RD Burman also suggested that Babu start working in the music industry while he was getting his music composer career off the ground. Burman introduced Babu to his first contacts, at R.K Electronics. Burman thought Babu was dynamic and energetic; he knew that Babu would be perfect for the job. Babu is so grateful to R D Burman. R.K Electronics needed someone to promote their company and Babu, already having fame as a composer in Bengal, was the guy to do this and Babu Kishan knew all distribution contacts from the Eastern Zone.
He introduced R.K Electronics to the Eastern Zone and the combination today is known as TIPS Industry, one of largest Entertainment Company in India.
Babu is an author of 3 books in Bengali and English, the last book was sponsored with the help of George Harrison and Ravi Shankar. He is a prolific poet and has been travelling worldwide for 40 years as a cultural ambassador for Bengal and India. He has performed at all top festivals worldwide and has lectured at Universities world-wide. He has performed at Carnegie Hall and The Royal Albert Hall in London and many other large venues around the world.
No the cosplayer fake Bauls did not work in Indian Cinema, they did not do the work regarding the Ramakrishna Mission, Gaudidya Vaishnavism, Baul in the West or any of the history of Baul. Experts acting as experts on Baul are just as bad.
Hawker Bauls and these actors acting as experts on Baul only 'RIDE ON THE COATTAILS' of this lineage and their indigenous ancestry including pretending to be NABANI DAS KHYPA BAUL -THE ONLY 'KHYAPA BAUL' AND THE ONLY 'KHYAPA BABA' OF BIRBHUM OR EVEN BENGAL, PURNA CHANDRA DAS BAUL AND KRISHNENDU DAS BAUL (BABU KISHAN) all documented the truth will be told.
These fakes did not categorize all the Folk Music of India, don't even know the folk music of Bengal of which Babu Kishan is an expert at and has composed for all the famous people of the 1970's onward, they do not even know the difference between folk music and Baul spiritual songs. They can copy and steal them off of Babu Kishan which is never a Baul.
They can copy this lineage using Nabani's style Ektara, Baya drum around the waist and his style of Nupoor (ankle bells) you can see them singing them on youtube or in documentary videos, but that is not Baul, they never give credit, or even attribution "where did you steal the songs and style from" they only know indigenous intellectual theft, thinking nobody will know, and perhaps Babu Kishan have been too silent for too long, those days are over. Baul does not need any do-gooders for your personal greed or just plain stupidity.
If they wanted to really be a Baul they would do some seva to the villages and leave the youtube videos out of the picture, especially these vague platitudes, maybe consider a new mouth piece. It is a game of dress up and the singing is not Baul singing, can't you tell, seriously what do you know about Baul if it is what you learned from them, it is not anywhere close. Today you can get anything on the internet and fake anything. No they do not have any adhikara, their Gurus were not even Baul Gurus. Have they done any decades long fundraising for others, or major Seva, no they are just promoting themselves.

Baul and Ramakrishna is only associated with KD Babu Kishan as he is the only Baul to be a monk in the Ramakrishna Mission for 12 years, this is a first and last in Baul.
Baul and Tantra is only associated with Nabani Das Khyapa Baul and KD Babu Kishan, Baul and Tarapith is only associated with them both too. Those others are not Baul as Baul Artist of an non-indigenous Baul is not a Baul but a users, poser, actor trying to remake the already lived lives of this parampara, do you speak the language, do you know what they are singing or who is the owner of the songs, or even if the songs are Baul songs, no you do not, so don't make emotional promotional comments when you do not even understand. You are cheering for a fake Baul and have no clue.
The practice of "Baul Kirtan-anga" Copyright, all songs will be reclaimed that belong to this lineages.
(only this lineage, parampara, no one used Baul kirtan until they read it on this blog, this is downright appropriation and false advertising by fake opportunistic self-titled so-called Bauls for marketing purposes, they have appropriated this lineages intellectual property, it can be proven and must be brought to the attention of the public because they are asking for donations and fundraising for jackpots, awards, grants and are not Baul, their Guru is a fake Baul Guru.
The "Rasa Lila Mystics" this is the only lineage parampara that is Vaishnava and Vaishnava Sahajiya Gosia Chandra Das Baul and Dasi, there is not another, never was. #BaultheRasaLilaMystics

"The path of the Avadhuta". Copyright there are no other Baul Avadhuta's and that title only belongs to this lineage or singular parampara, there is not another. They make Baul a no name generic Baul while claiming the intellectual property and the already lived firsts and lasts of this lineage.
