Maxananda has developed a system of overtone singing that incorporates the full body as a tuning instrument. The sounds created are the natural frequency sequences that balance and aligns the human energetic system.

"I was born and raised in NYC and had a talent for music and composition at an early age studying at the Greenwich School Music House. My road to overtone singing began later in life a few months before the Kalachakra event in NYC lead by the Dalai Lama. At that time I had an awakening experience with sound meditation.

I then created a "sound room" that served as an echo chamber and immerse myself in toning that year which later developed into a Spiritual Sound practice.

I have studied with many energy masters including Barbara Brennan, Roselyn Bruyere, Jason Schulman, Michael Mamas. I am gratefull to all of them. However, in the field of Sound Energy, I am self realized.

More recently I was asked to join Krishna Das' group as a recording member. He gave me the name Maxananda which means in NY Sanskrit 'Maximum Bliss'. I am grateful to KD for opening my heart and learning the way of Call and Response to elevate group energies. I have been leading Kirtans in NYC for the last few years playing harmonium and sharing my talents with harmonics. I believe this is one of my most important mission in life."

Om Shanti,
Maxananda
