Hindu Drummer Goes for Second World Record
For Phildas, drumming is an act of worship. The Switzerland native once held the Guinness Book of World Records title for non-stop drumming. She plans to break the current record even though it will mean drumming non-stop for 125 hours. The Hindu reported that Phildas has integrated her two loves: drumming and Hinduism.

For Phildas, drumming is more than music. She considers it a spiritual tool and a sort of meditation. Read more here: Drumming her way to glory
