About The Event
KAL KE KABIR: An Evening of Folk Music & Philosophy
Reading books endlessly, the world grew tired, yet none became truly wise.
One who understands the two-and-a-half letters of `Love` is the only true scholar.
Experience the timeless wisdom of Sant Kabir through the voice of Padma Shri Prahlad Singh Tipaniya.
Pune has long been a sanctuary for arts, literature, and deep spiritual inquiry. In a city that cherishes the Bhakti and Abhang traditions, H3LF & Lalit Kala Kendra Gurukul (LKK) are honored to bring the earthy, soul-stirring resonance of the Malwi folk tradition to our cultural capital.
Join us for "Kal ke Kabir" a captivating live performance by legendary folk singer Padma Shri Prahlad Singh Tipaniya and his troupe. A performance by Prahladji is often described as a Satsang (a gathering of truth). He doesn`t just sing; he pauses to lovingly explain the deep, often radical meaning behind Kabir`s verses in simple, everyday Hindi. For decades, Prahladji has been instrumental in taking the mystic poetry of Kabir out of academic texts and returning it to the people. Armed with a tambura and kartal, he sings Kabir`s verses with a sahaj (natural) and saral (simple) energy that transcends language barriers. His performances are not just concerts; they are immersive dialogues on love, equality, and the breaking down of societal labels.
Whether you are a lover of Indian classical and folk traditions, a seeker of philosophy, or simply looking for an evening of profound musical storytelling, this event promises to move your heart and awaken your mind.
