Raas Leela from the album The Legacy of Bhikhari Thakur is a play of aesthetics or more broadly “Dance of Divine Love”. Here Bhikhari Thakur depicts the Krishna Bhakti tradition. Rasa - Leela is considered to be one of the highest and most esoteric of Krishna’s pastimes. In this tradition, romantic love between human beings in the material world is seen as merely a diminished, illusionary reflection of the soul’s original, ecstatic spiritual love for Krishna, God, in the spiritual world. Kalpana Patowary through her body of musical recordings and collaborations, ie The legacy of Bhikhari Thakur, Anthology of Birha, The sacred scriptures of Monikut and Jimochhaya is archiving and preserving India’s musical heritage of folk traditions which is fading into oblivion without patronage and exposure. She has taken up the challenge of passing on the legacies to the younger generation with help of audio-visual aids, documentation, explanation, archiving etc. and restore them to the glory they deserve by travelling far and wide, recording on-site and polishing their finds in studios before making it available on modern platforms such as iTunes, SoundCloud and YouTube.
