In a few days I will be in India. I will be bringing a box of my new CDs and I hope to give copies to many schools in India which are run by the Ananda Marga organization. In addition I will be participating in a six day event of kiirtan (spiritual chanting) and meditation, and at the end of the my stay in India I will give a few lectures. Last year I spoke at a college in Odisha and at the Renaissance Universal Club in Bhubanesvar.

I was busy this weekend. I drove four hours to Carbondale in Southern Illinois on Saturday and then gave a very nice “house concert” in the Ananda Marga Center (402 South University, Carbondale). The next morning I got up and drove back to Urbana and led a “Songs of Peace” gathering at the Channing Murray Foundation on the University of Illinois campus. I was not able to broadcast the the Songs of Peace program as I had promised due to technical problems. Later on Sunday I also participated in the weekly meditation program at the Ananda Liina Center.
Speaking of house concerts. If you can gather ten or more people in your living room and want me to perform, then send me an email. I’ll try to make it work, depending of course on my schedule and the distances involved in responding to your request.

I will be singing songs of Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, John Lennon, Phil Ochs and others (including a few of my song) at the Channing Murray Foundation in Urbana, IL on Sunday at 1:00 PM. Details are below:

I just posted the studio version video of “I Don’t Eat Meat.” Some years ago I posted a live version which was made at the Divine Moon Festival in England in 2006. That video is most viewed of all of my videos. The new video is the studio version with slides that illustrate the lyrics. I hope you like it.
