Sadhak has been studying meditation with Sri Chinmoy for many years. His music and sense of poetry is excellent. Sadhak achieves a high level of expression, and his ideas are full of imagination. Here we offer a CD of his original works. Text and music by Sadhak, except for # 3 and 9 (text by P.B. Shelley) and # 10 (text by Dylan Thomas). I like the soothing, expansive quality of Sadhak's music. We hope to hear more from him in the future.
