About this title

About the Author

Vipul is an un-pin-downable free spirit — a traveller, poet, novelist, singer, dancer, meditator, and seeker. He has cultivated over the years a deep taste for the ordinary, an ability to savour the simple in each moment. A man’s true wealth is his “time,” Vipul says, and he stays resolutely “rich” in this regard. He has been fellow for literature at the Akademie Schloss Solitude in Germany in 2010-11, and he has published a novel (2012 Nights), a book of poems (Solitary Beyond Time), and short stories. Since 2012 Vipul has plunged into the world of bhakti poetry and music with the Kabir Project, journeying into the oral traditions in villages, doing translations and original writing for two forthcoming books and a web archive. A tambura came along as a gift, and he has taken to the joy of singing himself, interpreting and sharing these songs with diverse audiences. His love for bhakti music notwithstanding, Vipul Rikhi has a hidden and formidable knowledge of old Hindi film songs. And, be it tango or garba, he loves to dance.
