Bhīma-Karmā Vṛkodara Sāragrāhi has devoted his life to the Mṛdaṅga, the rhythmic heart of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Saṅkīrtana culture. His profound study began in his youth, leading to collaborations with pioneering Kīrtana artists like Krishna Das and Jai Uttal (playing Mṛdaṅga on the first Grammy-nominated Kīrtana album). Choosing a path of deep spiritual and musical dedication, he moved to India in 1999, spending over a decade in intensive study under the Guru-Śiṣya Paramparā to revive Mṛdaṅga as a complete spiritual science and art, which he now teaches globally through his school, Mṛdaṅga Sampradāya.
