An Alchemy of Sound
A Treatise on Music of the Gurmat Kirtan Tradition
Smithsonian Institution & Roli Publications · Fall 2026
Â
Professor Singh's forthcoming book is the distillation of four decades of research into a single definitive volume — a richly detailed exploration of the sound traditions of ancient India and their influence on human behavior and psychology. It weaves together ethnomusicology, the philosophy of sound, and emotional intelligence to illuminate how musical practice shapes the human experience.

Book Now"When I think of Yogi Ji, I feel the warmth of a gentle hand offering wisdom. He knows what life is truly made of — and that is felt in every word, in every gesture. His clarity and determination become an inspiration that encourages my own steps. His humanity, his dedication and his example invite me to live my life with mastery."
Guru Kaur
President, Naad Yoga Council | Founder, BeSound Naad Yoga
"Before I found this tradition, I thought I knew how to listen. I had been listening my whole life — to music, to teachers, to the world. What I did not know was how little of it I had actually heard. What Yogi ji opened in me was not a technique. It was a capacity — to receive sound in a way that moved through the body before the mind could name it. There is no word for what happens in that stillness. The closest I can get is this: something that had been waiting for a very long time finally felt heard. I did not expect to be changed by a sound. I only expected to hear one."
Simrit Kaur
Director, Raj Academy Canada
"In a special moment in 2007, I discovered within myself that emotions are the portal to Oneness. Soon after, I met Yogi Ji and encountered his profound art of “Soundlife,” where emotions connect deeply with sound. This was the beginning of my journey on the path of Naad – to learn about life from the angle of inner communication and to use emotion and sound for composing an amazing life. Along the way, Yogi Ji has continually inspired me to think beyond my limits and to live and expand this wisdom. His support and uplifting perspective have guided me through many moments and in some situations also have saved my life. Whenever I listen to him, my heart and mind begin to smile, and a new level of growth unfolds. There is no end to this journey—it keeps evolving and blossoming. Thank you, Yogi Ji. I feel deep gratitude for you as my teacher of sound."
Prakash Kaur
Teacher, Raj Academy
"This practice of sound plays a big role in my life. It is my way of entering myself and giving direction to my life."
