(Review by Lance).
Not a foot-tapper or a hip-shaker, this Sanskrit titled album is more a cerebral exercise. Wilkins' original compositions are, he says, inspired by personal psychological and spiritual experiences.
Jnana-Vijnana refers to the pursuit of understanding the knowledge of the Self and of the physical plural world in its many phases and incarnations.
There's more!
Jnana-Vijnana, it seems, was inspired by an event, in 2012, shortly after Wilkins attended a self-realisation seminar with a guru from India, Pujyashree Deepakbhai. "I'd been investigating Schopenhaur vis a vis Wagner and Zen philosophy, eventually leading to regular practice of Yoga and meditation..."This is all beyond my Karma.
Judge for yourself.
