Bio - Ishwari & Sruti Ram
Ishwari has been a spiritual explorer since her childhood. Her world burst forth in discovering the Divine feminine in the late 70's, which greatly influenced her music over the past 30 years. It wasn't until reading Autobiography of a Yogi a second time, that her Sat Guru, Babaji was revealed to her. Her practice as a Bhakti is simply one of listening to Divine orders, which came through studying psychic development for 20 years and chanting the Divine Names, which she has done for the past 7 years. She has a great regard for all the spiritual masters. Ishwari studies Advaita Vedanta with Shubhraji, and considers herself an employee of Neem Karoli Baba. Hari Om!!!
Sruti Ram has been in communion with the Divine through music since his childhood as a Catholic choir boy in the Bronx. Kirtan is for him another way to connect with Divinity. He has led kirtan at his home in Woodstock, New York, and in many places nationwide for three decades A longtime devotee of Neem Karoli Baba, Sruti Ram was the pujari and taught meditation with Ram Dass, the renowned spiritual teacher, for 30 years.
