After arriving in Mexico in 2021, Benny reconnected with Buddhism as a way of understanding and being in the world, a connection that began at the age of 16 at the behest of a mentor that rescued him from a deep depression.  Singing mantras and prayers, and facilitating devotional song circles that infuse meditation, contemplation, and song has been a way for Benny to integrate his passion for music with his commitment to be in service to community. He is currently active performing, recording, teaching and giving workshops through Mexico, Brazil, and the US.
