Nabani Das Baul 1954 Suri Birbhum W Bengal

Today many are calling themselves Baul Masters, give me a break, don't even go there. Even Westerners have called themselves Baul Masters when they have not even had a Baul Guru. What an insults to the only Lineage of Baul? Baul is an indigenous to Birbhum Guru shishya Parampara.

It is thousands of years old and is being reduced, watered down, and stolen by outsiders who are taking who have taken Nabani Das Baul names off his poetry.

Hijacking a tradition calling themselves legendary. Babu Kishan is coming back after all the decades of preserving his lineage of Baul? Baul is extinct, it has been preserved that is why you are singing the songs. Respect the ones that walked before. In this age of Internet anybody can be famous but can you be authentic and stop all this drama.

"Nabani Das Khyapa Baul, the last authentic Lineage of Born in 1890's in Ekkachakra Birbhum, passed in 1969"

(No one can pretend to be Nabani)

All Bauls follow Nabani - Ektara Baya Nupoor (ankle bells) that is only his style. Yet, you will see NEW Baul singers, copy and follow who have created Sri Sri Guru's claiming lineage when there never was a lineage. Babu Kishan knows who is who he has lived it since the 1960's and NO ONE would even know about Baul in India or around the world without his pioneering work, lifetime work preserving Baul and teaching Baul around the world at Universities and all.

Yet, you will have self promoting Baul actors claiming and name dropping, dressing as and using all the songs of this lineage, and even worse changing the narrative of who and what Baul is? Teaching wrong teachings, watering down and being self serving trying to create something for themselves when it is not their lineage in the first place.

Baul does not need any new Baba or Maa, come and join us I will save Baul, I will preserve Baul please donate. Baul has already been preserved back in the 1960- 1980's by Babu Kishan.

This photo is to all those who think Baul is simple and it is not about YOGA.

Sri Nabani Das Khyapa Baul was a Guru Master of Yoga & Tantra as he was an adept and Avadhuta @ Tarapith where he was blessed and initiated into Tarapith Sadhana by Bhama Khyepa. Today Tarapith is completely different.

This photo was taken by Richard Lannoy in 1954, in Suri Birbhum Bengal.

Nabani Das was the Baul inspired and initiated Rabindranath Targore into this Baul lineage, Tagore Named Nabani Kheppa and "Mirror of the Sky". Nabani gave Tagore the name Ravi Paul. Nabani was the first and onlyBaul to teach at Tagore's University in Shantiniketan, his student was Indira Gandhi who remained loyal to this Lineage of Baul until her assassination.

All content on this blog is the sole property of Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das. Please ask Babu directly before you name drop from his stories and lineage! Indigenous Baul identity theft is a real thing. No poaching, stealing, hijacking - by taking names off and recreating fake stories or stealing anything from this blog. This Blog is designed and written by Trishula Das who is Babu Kishan's wife of almost 20 years, listening to Baul for 24/7. Please do not copy these stories, rework them and then put your own name the stories or add other Baul names from fake lineages, there are no other lineages of Baul. Do not copy place by place, what he has accomplished reworking, retracing work, such as teaching at Universities when you never went to a University, or pretending you ever had an association with the Ramakrishna Mission when Babu Kishan the first and last Baul to attend the Ramakrishna Mission and fundraise for the Ramakrishna Mission for decades. Oh and worst yet do not make lose associations with Indian Cinema when Babu Kishan is the first and last and only Baul to have actually worked in all levels of Management, Filmaker and Music Composer in Indian Cinema (Bollywood). There is no need for fake PRETENDIAN Bauls called Baul Masters or Baul Artists to fundraise as saviours of Baul when Baul has already been preserved by Babu Kishan decades ago (1960- now) that is over 60 years. Please do not take his name off and tell his stories that can only be known or have only been told by Babu Kishan about his lineage of his Guru Nabani Das Khyapa Baul. Do not reprint and twist, turn, cherry pick, using names from Babu's life with people he knows, then on youtube talk like as if you know when you took it from this blog or his website. Do not make Baul randon or generic, to include yourself, first there is no way you are Baul and your fake Baul Guru and fake lineage are fakes, this is indigenous FRAUD. Nabani Das Style with Baya (hand drum at waist) Ektara and Nupoor style ankle bells, are Nabani Das Khyapa Baul style only, his son Purna Das Baul's style too, cease and desist from using their songs, style, faking this lineage this is indigenous identity theft, it not our fault your fake Baul Guru copied this whole lineage, it is your fault for lying and continuing the indigenous Fraud and even worse now trying to fundraise to preserve Baul when Baul is already preserved, this is indigenous fraud. This is Cultural Mis-Appropriation.

The content of this Blog will be expanded on and included in 'Historical Baul' to be released 2025 this is Babu Kishan's 4th book on Baul, the others are out of print from 1980's. Historical Autobiography of Baul The Rasa Lila Mystics Reclaiming the Indigenous Ancestral Heritage of the Vaishnava Sahajiya Tantric Bauls of Birbhum BAUL TANTRA- MANTRA- GOPI YANTRA, The path of the Avadhuta (Please do not call yourself an Avadhuta now) LOL Baul has been overworked, reworked so many times over, nobody would even know what is real and what is fake.

When anyone cuts the names and stories of this lineage off the stories and then replaces their names on these stories this is wrong. It is a fact that no one in India or around the World only know about Baul because of this family lineage.

This lineage is the first and only Pioneering Lineage to bring Baul out of the village in Birbhum to the World.

Some others were invited to travel with them or followed them, trying to do what they have already done, then Riding on the Coat Tails of this lineage saying they are they are first, they are not, the first Women Baul to travel around the world starting in 1969 was Manju Das before internet.

Copying what Babu Kishan and his family have already done is miseducating the public because many are making astronomical claims that are not true. Yet they are singing the songs of this lineage but adding other peoples names, this is a cultural appropriation. There is a Baul History and Her-story and this story was complete decades ago.

The real Baul is extinct! Babu Kishan has ARCHIVED BAUL decades ago, it has been done, it is complete. This will be presented one by one. This is important because 'Newcomers to BAUL', are watering down, reducing and dumbing down Baul. The speculation on who the Bauls are is mind boggling. Scholars have never got it right, they only speculate or talk to the wrong people. These statements will be qualified one by one.

Babu Kishan has preserved his one and only'Lineage Baul' because he could fore tell the change Baul was even going through back in the 1970's.

No one in this world would know who the Bauls of Bengal are without all the work of this family, this lineage and Babu Kishan. All Bauls follow this lineage, this lineage is ancient and they do not follow anybody.

The new Baul singers, follow this lineage by singing their songs, by dressing as they dress, by following them around the world and by meeting their friends.

Bob Dylan, Allen Ginsberg, Rabindranath Tagore, Osho and many others were only associated with this family and this lineage.

Babu Kishan is the eldest in his generation of Vaishnava Tantric Bauls, he is Nabani Das Khyapa Bauls eldest Grandson and raised by Nabani and Brajabala from Birth til he was 8 years of age, they instilled in him that he preserve his Lineage Baul and this he completed decades ago. It has been done and will only be presented in time.
