about
India has an ancient tradition of honoring and revering what they call ‘Holy Madmen,’ individuals who are filled to the brim with the ecstasy of divine presence. Often these men and women will sing, dance and recite spontaneous poetry. Considered ‘crazy’ by the mainstream, they are a living treasure to those with eyes that can see past the surface. My dear friend Shyamdas (1953-2013) was a holy madman, an inspiration to all and a brother to me. This song is a love letter to him.
