Baul sangeet

Baul sangeet is a popular folk form of Bengali music, very similar to modern western folk music. It can also be compared to the popular Sufi genre, not simply because of the similarity in ragas, but also due to its similarity in the approach to music as a medium to interact with god. It aims to urge a man to find god within himself, instead of searching him in mosque, temples and churches. The lyrics and music of Baul sangeet are highly spiritual and intellectual.
