A Vaishnavi artist passed away. Here is some of her Krishna conscious art.
Jahnavi Devi Dasi: Janaki-Devi Dasi passed away on Wednesday evening in Belgium, after an unexpectedly rapid acceleration of cancer. I didn’t know her well, but we had several conversations in the last couple of years in which I found her to be so warm, open, honest, and sincere. She had given me her album to listen to some time back, but I had not done so straight away, and as life goes, I forgot about it. On Tuesday I had been asked to lead kirtan at ISKCON London in her honour, and on the way there I finally dug out her music to listen to. Tears rolled down my face as I heard the sincere emotion and heartfelt honesty in her lyrics. I have never been into rock music much, but it moved me because of her devotion. She really just wanted to ‘sing for Krishna’, as she said, and you can hear it. Each track has it’s own special quality but I particularly love the last one…take a listen, and offer a prayer in your heart for this Vaishnavi as she continues her journey onward.
