Dheera Das
... in the end, we are all just looking for love
- until we realize that we are love itself.
My Story
One day in a yoga studio, I heard a recording of the mantra singer Krishna Das, who would later become my teacher. I had the feeling of coming home.
Then something started to happen: I began practicing my own mantra in my own home, followed by invitations to chant in living rooms and yoga studios, at retreats and festivals, at weddings and funerals.
With my own musical compositions, traditional melodies from India, but also well-known songs by Krishna Das, I now pass on in his tradition what is called Nama Sankirtan in India:
The Mantras of the Holy Names.
Mantra Practice
Meditate Without Realizing It!
The power of mantras lies not only in the sound - it opens up a space of silence in which healing, connection and inner expansiveness can arise.
Dheera Das accompanies you with his voice and his experience through regular mantra sessions in which chanting together becomes a deep practice.
This creates a meditative space that touches the heart and mind - regardless of chanting experience or spiritual background.
“Chanting gives us the strength to let go of what prevents us from immersing ourselves in a deeper realm of our own being.”

After reading Jaya Prasada's book “Sri Siddhi Ma”, the melody to this mantra found me without me having to work on it in any way longer.
Ma once said: "It's all Grace. But we have to act like it isn't."
