All of the souls I've been privileged to chant with over these last five years have shaped me and my practice. May you be blessed!

Kailash is committed to sharing tools of mind, heart, speech, and song that equip you for success in the search for happiness. For many years a professor of human communication and a trained psychotherapist (as Kurt A. Bruder, Ph.D., M.Ed.), he investigated how our inner lives are fashioned in and through our interactions with others. An earnest student of spirituality throughout his professional life, Kailash presents a unique blend of wisdom and inspiration that will aid you on your path to the Supreme.
Among the things Kailash learned during his years as a communication scholar is the great extent to which our lives and worlds are shaped by what we say, both to those with whom we share our lives, and to ourselves. Our minds work with the raw material gathered by the senses, and what we hear figures importantly into this mix. We are our own first audience for anything we say, and our minds tend to follow the trajectory established by our words.
This is why spiritual practices like mantra recitation and chanting are so important. Through these practices, you can choose the substance of your conscious experience. You can offer your mind and heart something more focused, refined, and inspiring than the usual confused, overwhelming, and ugly stuff that too often dominates your thoughts and feelings. And this is crucial because we live in the atmosphere of our thoughts.
When you join Kailash in chanting, you're equipped to use your voice as a tool for your own spiritual development. Kailash presents chanting in a way that is accessible to all, putting people at ease with an unfamiliar, and perhaps initially uncomfortable, practice. He'll help you move beyond the commonplace self-consciousness that keeps you from discovering the power of your voice. With Kailash's inspiring guidance, you'll acquire a reliable technology for quieting your mind, opening your heart, and participating in your own evolution.
Whether Kailash is singing, recounting spiritual stories, or providing instruction, his devotion and insight are contagious. He helps people grasp even difficult-to-understand ideas, and equips them with practices that genuinely raise their quality of life. Kailash delights in helping others realize their true nature as Radiant Care and Awareness.

May you bless the world rather than curse the world... for love heals a heart & light overcomes darkness. REMEMBER YOUR OWN HOLINESS, feel it in your heart, then share that joy/peace with all you meet. GOD IS IN THE SHARING. Love, Lalita
Love has no cause; it is the astrolabe of God’s secrets.
Lover and Loving are inseparable and timeless.
Although I may try to describe Love when I experience it I am speechless.
Although I may try to write about Love I am rendered helpless; my pen breaks and the paper slips away at the ineffable place where Lover, Loving and Loved are one.
Every moment is made glorious by the light of Love.
"A Friendship blessing" (John Donohue from “Anam Cara“)
May you be blessed with good friends May you learn to be a good friend to yourself. May you be able to journey to that place in your soul Where there is great love, warmth .feeling and forgiveness May this change you May it transfigure that which is negative, distant or cold in you May you be brought into, the real passion, kinship and affinity of belonging. May you treasure your friends. May you be good to them And may you be there for them May they bring you all the blessings, challenges, truth and light That you need for your journey May you never be isolated But may you always be in the gentle nest of belonging with your “soul friend”
