~ "Snatam Kaur is an American singer, peace activist and author raised in the Sikh and Kundalini Yoga tradition. She has an amazing ability to transform traditional Sikh chants of India into a contemporary sound that appeals to the modern ear and awakens an ancient yearning in the soul. For over thirty years, she studied with and grew up in the presence of her spiritual teacher, Yogi Bhajan, while he was in his physical form, learning the essence of Naad Yoga, a form of yoga focusing on sacred sound. At the core of this practice is an essential experience of peace and healing which has helped her music to be accessible to people of all walks of life. She has taught and shared Naad Yoga and Kundalini Yoga and meditation through her recorded CDs, concerts, and workshops for the past 20 years as a part of her commitment to give people tools for a daily experience of inner peace. Her new book Original Light; the Morning Practice of Kundalini Yoga is a compassionate and supportive guide to creating a personal daily spiritual practice."

"In the early morning hours, I opened the door to the little cabin I was staying in to walk to the group Sādhanā practice just down the road. It was just me; not a soul stirred. I was living with my sister for the summer in a sacred community nestled in a valley of the Jemez Mountains of northern New Mexico. I was in my early twenties, and I felt totally safe as the cottonwood trees sang, rustling in the wind. The cool air invited me in, and as I took a deep breath, my eyes were drawn upward to the sparkling stars in the dark blue sky. It was at that moment that I fell in love with my practice. It was God’s time to say hello to me, to tell me how much He loved me, and it was my time to say hello to Him, undisturbed by the hustle and bustle of the day. From that moment on—whether in a busy city, on a tropical island, in a quiet forest, or through the window of a cozy home—I have always looked for the stars and moon before beginning my practice."
