Indigenous Baul fraud and Indigenous Identity theft!

https://lineagebaul.blogspot.com/2025/02/indigenous-identity-theft-indigenous.html



No other Baul had anything to do with Allen Ginsberg, his father met him through Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das Baul. Babu Kishan was a baby when Allen Ginsberg met Nabani Das Khyapa Baul in Birbhum, Allen asked, who is this little guy following you everywhere, always next to you?? 

Starting in the 1980's Babu would visit Ginsberg almost every year in New York until Ginsberg passed in April of 1997.

This is Babu Kishan's very personal story, do not steal his story to sell your book or generalize, please ask Babu Kishan for permission to use any of his story

Yet, you will see many writers, make false associations in their books with other people who follow Baul. I will point all this out clearly in my book and at press releases. Doing this is a cultural misappropriation, using Babu Kishans life stories, taking his name off and adding other names is a intellectual property theft and it dilutes the history of Baul.

 I have even seen a Western Baul say Baul was associated with Allen Ginsberg? No the only Baul associated with Ginsberg is Babu Kishan.

 Please use the Baul's name, his name is Babu Kishan or Krishnendu Das Baul, do not use his story and then write a book with a picture of another Baul beside his story. 

Enough tell the truth and if you do not know it, do not misappropriate Babu's story.

The only Baul poetry by Allen Ginsberg, who was many decades dear friend of Babu Kishan's aka Krishnendu Das

The only Baul poetry ever written
 by Allen Ginsberg.


 Babu Kishan is the only Baul that had a many decade friendship with Allen Ginsberg. 

Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu the eldest Grandson of Nabani, first met Ginsberg when he was a baby in the lap of Nabani Das Khyapa Baul in Birbhum 1962. 

Ginsberg travelled to Suri Birbhum, to specifically meet 'Nabani Das Khyapa Baul' Baul Avadhut and Baul Poet the only Baul who initiated Rabindranath Tagore into Baul. Ginsberg always told Babu who on his yearly visits to New York from early 1980's to 1997 Babu would go to Ginsberg's home in Greenwich Village Lower Manhattan that Babooo was a little Nabani. 

Many stories to tell, Babu Kishan's stories and associations, not yours, do not name drop!

“Baul of Bengal, I sing for all,  Blue Danube is my Jamuna,  Hudson my Vrindavan, see me in Calcutta, Toronto and London,  Hear my call Baul of Bengal,  Same man many names,  same player,  many games,  Love is magic to win at life,  Hear my call O Baul of Bengal.” 

By Allen Ginsberg, 
given to Babu Kishan in honour of Nabani Das Khaypa Baul
 
Sung by Babu Kishan, presented on the stage with Bob Dylan & The Band during the 1985 tour of USA
