Lineage of Radha and the MahaVidya's.
Prakriti Sadhana, Vayu Dharma and many other Tantric Practices. The picture of Nabani Das Baul is why Tagore gave him the name Khyapa (Khepa) he was a Mystic, Siddha and one of his initiations and blessings was by Bama Khepa of Tarapith. He was the last of the authentic Baul Avadhuta a Baul Guru to many including Allen Ginsberg and Rabindranath Tagore.

The path of Radha - The Vaishnava Bauls of Birbhum Bengal. Believe it or not there is only ONE Lineage of Baul and this can be proved and will unfold in Babu Kishan's 4th book on his lineage.
All Bauls follow this Lineage, they sing their songs, they dress as they dress and they follow where ever they go right to a tee!

Baul is Extinct, Baul History and Her-story was complete decades ago. Baul has been PRESERVED & ARCHIVED decades ago!! It has been done all of it.
Baul has been preserved and archived decades ago by 'Babu Kishan' and his family long ago. There is no need for any outsider to archive Baul we have seen this be done by outsiders and they have made a huge mess, interviewing people who are not even Baul? What Baul needs are translators from Bengali to English of the material already archived. We have seen the songs of this lineage stolen and other poets names put on, this proves one is not a Baul and only trying to copy Baul when one does this. It can be proved and that is the sad part of this and because of this all the stories will come out (period). Babu has been the biggest supporter of New Baul singers but now that Baul is extinct, the truth must come out.
What people are doing today is a cultural mis-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 go and follow them now around the world to exactly the same places they have gone in the past??

The official Largest ever Baul Archive and preservation of Baul was complete decades ago, and it has already been preserved by Nabani Das Bauls Grandson 'Babu Kishan' as per Nabani and Brajabala wishes when Babu was very young. He has worked with a dogged determination and with a strong intent to do as his Baul Guru's from Birth have directed him to do. While he archived Baul and because of his musical Genius as an accomplished Music Composer he has also, categorized the Folk Music of India for all the biggest Record Companies in Bombay back in the 1980's.'
