Purna Das Baul not your regular Baul!

BabuKishan.org

With the invention of "Youtube" we are now able to see some Baul singers. Purna Das Baul is a lineage Baul and Pioneer of Bauls who has achieved international success all over the world, thanks in many ways to his son Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das Baul, who recorded and produced all of Purna Das Baul music since the 1970's and managed his music career through the 1970's to early 2,000. 

Purna Das has many President of India awards, he is a Padma Sri, and was a cultural representative of India for more than 8 decades. 

All Baul follow this lineage, right down to the songs they sing, to their dress and follow them around the world, directly visiting their friends??

He is Baul Samarat (King of the Bauls) and the first Indian vocalist to travel outside of India starting in the 1950's. He is almost 90 years old and still very popular in India. 

He is the Baul that Bauls aspire to be like, they dress like him, try to sing like him, they followed his father Nabani Das Khyepa Baul, and his sister Radharani Dasi. 

His eldest son Babu Kishan aka Krishnendu Das is the first Baul to do Baul fusion music, become a music composer, the first Baul to Tollywood, to Bollywood, to Hollywood in Film and music. 

Everyday more Bauls are trying and doing Baul fusion and even singing in some movies. 

Just like his grandfather, and father Babukishan aka Krishnendu Das Baul has achieved an unlimited amount of milestones as a Baul. 

Babu Kishan is the first and only Baul to live in North America.

 He is the first Baul to be a monk in the Ramakrishna order for 12 years, the first Baul to be educated with a BA in Indian Philosophy and MA in Indian Music. 

Authentic Bauls spoke oral Sanskrit in the oral tradition with Manuscripts, the real Bauls were way more educated than any western form of education because everything, all Indian Philosophy, all the stories of Krishna and Radha, Ram and Sita and Yoga were remembered by word of mouth. 

They are idigenous Bengali, Birbhum Bengali speakers, not Bangladeshi Bengali or Assam Bengali. 

Bauls are not tribal but indigenous Vaishnava Tantric Indians from Birbhum Bengali Inaida, living a Vaishnava lifestyle since the beginning of the story going back 5000 years.

Purna Das Baul has received more awards going back to the 1940's than almost anyone in Bengal!

Today anybody can get an award for anything, it was not so easy back in the day.
