The Bauls are a mystic group of singers and musicians, immensely popular in the countryside. Bauls, which is a word that comes from the Sanskrit word batul, means "divinely inspired insanity". They sang primarily in the 18th and 19th centuries and are a group of Hindu mystic minstrels from the Bengal region. They have been immensely influenced by the Kartabhajas, which is a Hindu tantric sect. and also by Sufi philosophers. Bauls traveled and sang in search of the internal ideal, Moner Manush (Man of the Heart or the inner being), and descried "superfluous" differences between religions. Considered to be the greatest of all Bauls is Lalon Fakir, alternatively known as Lalon Shah, who lived in the 19th century in and around Kushtia.
