Event Description

A concert of beautiful folk songs of Kabir and other Bhakti and Sufi poets, such as Meera, Bulleshah, Rumi and Khusro. The songs combine exquisite poetry with deep wisdom for our lives. The meanings of the songs will be explained in English before the songs themselves.

In this uplifting and joyful concert by Vipul Rikhi, you can fully immerse in the mystic spirit and beauty of these poets. These songs connect folk music with the beauty of Bhakti and Sufi poetry, bringing to light deep wisdom, which with its truth opens the human heart like a key falling into a lock.

Kabir and other mystic poets offer a distinct and very relevant message of understanding and love based on self-awareness and the practice of conscious attention.

The meanings of the songs are explained beforehand so that they are easy to understand and relate to for any audience.
