Confessions of a middle class quean*
*quean - /kwēn/- an impudent woman

Deep gratitude to Yogi Ramsuratkumar. To Mr. Lee Lozowick for infusing the lineage with his devotional rock ‘n roll and blues music. To Devaki Ma, Krishna Das and Parvathy Baul for continually inspiring me to chant. To Moll Jacobs for being my daring partner in this process.
Sorry Sanskrit scholars, pronunciation practically flew out the window on this one. Thank you for keeping the planet true to the Mother Tongue and for doing the work the rest of us are too lazy or too busy to do :).
