The Upanishads are the perennial source of spiritual knowledge. The word Upanishad means secret and sacred knowledge. Isavasya Upanishad is a portion from the Sukla Yajurveda samhita containing twenty mantras. The central theme of this Upanishad “Isavasyam idam stream” is to teach that God is all pervasive and regulator of all. All are entirely dependent upon him. It advises elimination of greed for spiritual pursuit; Performance of one’s prescribed duties in dedication to the God. To know the God as described above is right knowledge. The following prayer has rich spiritual content and a high degree of poetic appeal. Ohm, God lead us by the right path towards the prosperity (liberation), remove the bondage. We offer profuse salutations.
Brhadaranyaka Upanishad is the most important of the Upanishads. It details the theory of creation and the means of knowing the self and the Brahman three sections. Madhu Kanda,
Yajnavalkya Kanda and Khila Kanda. The Madhu Kanda teaches about the identity of the individual self and the universal self the superimposition of the world on Brahman."

The most important Brahadarnayaka Upanishad is the perennial source of secret and sacred spiritual knowledge. The Madhu Kanda teaches about the identity of the individual self and the universal self-the superimposition of the world on Brahman. Adi Sankara, Ramanuja and Madhava have commented on this Upanishad and commended its Scientific method of explanation. Sureshvara wrote a vartika (a gloss on Sankara’s commentary) there are two recessions of the Satapatha Brahmana, the Kanva and Madhyandina. Sankara followed the Kanva recessions."
"The Upanishads are the perennial source of spiritual knowledge. The word Upanishad means secret and sacred knowledge. Brahadaranyaka Upanishad is the most important of the Upanishads. The Upanishad conveys the ultimate message as Aham Brahmasri- I am Brahman:
“Atmetyevopasita – worship Atman as Brahman: Athata aadeso neti neti-Therefore, the instruction is not this, not this. When everything is negated, what remains the desideratum is Brahman. This Upanishad is considered the last word on Advaita. It also contains the famous Maiteyi Brahmana, which is the dialogue between Yajnavalkya and his philosopher wife Maiteyi who demanded that her husband indicate to her the means of Self-realization. “Atma va are drashtavyo srotavyo” etc.

"The Divine Mother of the Universe, Lalitha, once gave audience to all the gods. To worship her came crores of Brahmas (creators) and Brahmin’s (consorts of the creators), and crores of Narayanas with their Lakshmis and crores of Rural with their Gaur is. The different Shaktis who came to do Lalitha reverence were also innumerable, as were the Devas and Siddhas.
When they had all worshipped her, they took their seats, upon which, Sri Devi Lalitha, glanced meaningfully Vashini and others, the goddess of speech. There upon they began to sing the thousand names of Lalitha, composed by them earlier, at her express command.
While Devi Lalitha became glad upon hearing the hymn, all those who were assembled there were amazed at its exquisite beauty and puissance. “Declare these thousand names to my devotees. It a devotee recites it even once, I grant him all his desires,” Devi Lalitha told them.
The above details are conveyed by Lord Havagriva, the horse-faced manifestation of Lord Vishnu worshipped as the embodiment of intelligence, to the Sage Agastya, one of the most revered figures in Hindu lord. The passage occurs in the preface to the Lalitha Sahasranama, a great masterpiece that finds pride of place in the second part of the Brahmanda Purana. (The Puranas are sacred texts, which explain the Vedic doctrines, the fountainhead of Hindu philosophy, to lay minds).
Taken as a devotional hymn, the Lalitha Sahasranama is a wonderful track in which deep feeling is expressed in sublime language. The sonorous alliterations and assonances, and the beautiful cadences create an incantatory effect. Unlike other hymns of thousand names, the Lalitha Sahasranama is free from meaningless particles and words, and also from the fault of repetition. The hymn, in its straightforward significance invokes the celestial qualities of the goddess, and builds an ambience of majesty, beauty, power and sanctity.

"The vibrations of sound formulas of the Vedas work through the chakras to increase the flow of beneficial energy throughout the subtle body where these latencies and tendencies are stored. Mantra therapy starts by increasing the total amount of energy available for all our activities. Certain mantras used singly or in combination can greatly accelerate the quality and quality of energy used in the healing process. It guards the World against all ills. Our ancestors devised remarkable methods of chanting to protect the original form, their tonal and verbal purity against change and distortion. They laid down rules to make sure tat not a syllable was changed in chanting, not a swara was altered and ensured that the full benefits were derived from intoning the mantras. According the this the words of a mantra are braided together in different atterns like “Vakya”, “pada”, “karma”, “jala”, “mala”, “sikha”, “rekha”, “Ghana”. The intonation of a few words of a mantra is joined to the second the second to the third, the third to the fourth and so on, until we come to the final word “karma to ca caurgunam. This karma chanting bestows four times the effect of normal chanting of the Mantra.
Hence, this compact disc presents “Rudram” a popular and effective Vedic portion extolling the greatness of Siva, chanted to ward off evils, sins etc and to gain security and strength. This Rudram is chanted in the Krama format, by the traditional Pandit, Thanjavur Brahmasri S.Radhakrishna Sastrigal.

"The Devi Mahatmiyam is an esoteric Epic, a great spiritual occult text and a Mantra – Sastra. It is a part of the Markandeya Purana. The Devi Mahatmiyam signifies the march of the human soul to its destination. Three stages of transformation of the spiritual being of the aspiring sour are described in the three sections of the Devi Mahatmiyam through the anecdotes- Adi-Sakthi as Maha Kali awakening Maha Vishnu in order to destroy the original demonical forces., Madhu and Kaitabha, the same Shankthi manifesting as Maha Lakshmi and overcoming Mahishasura and Raktbija, and as Maha Saraswathi destroying Sumbha and Nisumbha. These three presiding forces are representative of the powers of the spirit within manifesting as themselves in an upward ascent towards ultimate God realization, which is described in the Devi Mahatmiyam. Thus, the dance of the cosmic spirit in its supernal effort at self transcendence, is majestically described in the beautifully worded sonorous songs of the Devi Mahatmiyam, where we are given s stirring account, a stimulating description of what Maha Kali did, what Maha Lakshmi did and Maha Saraswathi did in bringing about this evolution and transformation.
The Devi Mahamiyam is recited for averting calamities in life Catastrophies, tensions. When there is war treating a country, for example, or pestilence of epidemic everywhere, Or any internal tension or anxiety of any kind, the Devi Mahatmiyam is recited and it is a very potent remedy prescribed by seers of yore, not only for temporal terrestrial Prosperity, but also for the glory of the hereafter, for illumination, for the destruction of ignorance and to be a fit recipient of the grace of the Almighty.
The chosen and the effective prayer portions of the Devi Mahatmiyam have been recited by Thanjavur.S.Radhakrishna Sastrigal, the hearing of which fetches the desired divine fruit.

As tiny beings, babies require quite a few things the average human would need, but in smaller portions or in different wavelengths. For instance, sunlight…. It’s not that the sun will kill a baby, but if exposed to more than a certain amount, it could be harmful to the child. So also music… depending on the genre and volume, what a regular person may consider soothing or relaxing may actually be more than a child can handle.
Lullabies are often sung by parents in calming children, putting to sleep, or simply spending time with them. The simple lyrics, nature, and storyline of lullabies are usually intended for children, and are therefore suitable for them. A parent can rock a child to sleep with a lull-a-bye, calm a discontented child, or sing along with a playing child.

"The hymn of Saundarayalahari contains 100 poems (verses) of four lines each said to be written by jagadguru Shri Adi Shankaracharaya (8th Century Indian Philosopher). Legend of this work is often substantiated by the distinct difference that is present in the two sets of poems “Anandalahari”. The waves of bliss (verses 1 to 42) and “Saundarayalahari” – The waves of beauty (verses 43 to 100) the complete set is known as Saundarayalahari. Anandalahari deals with the Mantra, Yantra and Tantra practices of Shaktha cult. The Shaktha system is a system of rituals accompanied by Meditation based on Advaita philosophy. Shaktha sect worships Devi through rituals and meditation and is based on a non-dual interpretation of reality. These verses are on a metaphysical plane, describing the philosophical & spiritual aspects of Shakthi worship. A notable feature of this set of verses is that the verses are not interlinked in anyway, they stand apart. The language is also highly transcendental in nature.
Saundaryalahari, the second part, is a description of the Supreme Mother from crown to feet, as a description of the vision the Shri Adi Shankaracharya experienced. These verses are said to be written by Shri Shankaracharaya himself. He made generous us of figures of speech of Sanskrit poetcs. However, the term “Saundaryalahari” is now commonly applied to the entire hundred verses.

The Navagraha Pooja is important as the planets are considered to play a major role in deciding the destiny of man. All the nine grahas (planets) have the vital role to give us Pleasure or pain in life. In astrology, great importance is placed on the positions of the “Navagraha” in the twelve constellations of the zodiac, their planetary movements and their effect on human beings. A particular “graham” are said to remove the ill effects. Lord Surya was worshipped by Lord Rama before the war against Ravana. His grace is believed to lead to power, position, good health and so on. Chandra’s grace is required for the health of mind and consequently the body. The “Rasi” in a horoscope is decided by the position of the moon, just as the “Lagna” is ruled by the Sun. Lord Angaraka, is the moulder of leaders of countries. He graces those who stand up for truth. Lord Buddha is the giver of Wisdom. He imparts knowledge and beauty, prayers to Lord Guru can alleviate the suffering brought about by adverse positioning of any of “Grahas”. Guru is the Lord of the Devas associates with wisdom, Vedanta jnana, and purity of thought, word and deed. Fortunate beings are those with Lord Sukra strong in their horoscope. Sukra is proficient in all the Sastras. He can even bring the dead back to life. Sanaischara is a beneficient “graham” Any adverse effect is due to placement in an individual horoscope which could overcome by worshipping him. Rahu and Kethu, also do a let good.

The repeated reading of Valmiki’s Ramayana and especially the Sundara Kaanda is considered to be sacred. It bestows enormous powers to the reader and listener. It is common to any sect. The Ramayana contains the mystic syllables. It is an expository of Vedic Mantras. It is also studded with the letters of Gayathri mantra and many other incantations. The reading of certain sargas or cantos in Sundara and yuddhakaanda has been carried on form the days of yore for some specific advantage and relief apart from the mental solace one gets after listening or reading it. The select and the most efficacious portions in the whole of Ramayana are Anguliya Pradaana sarga (Sundara Kaanda- 36th canto) Sarvakaarya Siddhi sera (Sundarakaanda -41st canto) and Sri Ramapattabhisheka Sarga (Yuddha Kaanda -131st canto). Hence, in this C.D these sargas are devotionally recited by the traditional Pandit Thanjavur S.Radhakrishna Sasthrigal.
The Uma samhita, Skanda and a few other Purina’s praise highly of the efficacy of the repeated reading of the Ramayana, and the former text confirms that the reading even the Diseases which defy treatment will be cured. Longevity will result there form. Enmity from every quarter will vanish. Family problems will cease. Fear of premature death will disappear. Debts will be liquidated. All undertakings will be successful. Extraordinary powers would descend. And Sri Rama will shower his mercy and kindness. According to the pattabisheka sarga recited in this, the man who reads or hears is freed from sin; he is blessed with children; conquers the earth and dominates his enemies; Women give birth to long lived sons; the read gets long life; overcomes all trials and tribulation; reunited form the separated partners; and gets the desired boons.

"The Bhagavad-Gita is a book on self-discovery and journey into the Abode of God. It helps one move from sorrow driven mortal existence to eternal and blissful life. Desire is a central to all human activity. By eliminating the desires, but by not abandoning the actions, one can free oneself from the bondage caused by the desire driven actions. Such an approach not only liberates us from all struggling and striving, but also reduces greatly our inner anxieties and frustrations, creating in the process a permanent basis for a stable, intelligent and peaceful life. According to the Bhagavad-Gita in the external world is unreal not because it does not exist, but because it is unstable and ever changing. Since it is based upon impermanence, it cannot be relied upon as the vehicle of truth and it should not become the purpose of ones existence. He who clings to such an unstable phenomenon is bound to suffer as he is bound to engage himself in desperate actions to retain his unstable possessions and experience constant anxiety, anger, fear, and envy. Therefore, the Bhagavad-Gita searches for a permanent reality that makes life more meaningful, stable, peaceful and purposeful. It discards layer after layer of untruth that surrounds us and reveals the shining self that exists in all of us as the centre of truth and permanence that we should all ultimately discover. It is by understanding the hidden self in us we will ultimately discover the supreme self, that exists in all of us and in whom we all exist. The scripture fundamentally deals with three primary teachings, which are called the three secrets. The first secret is about duty. One must do one duty in Accordance with ones nature. The second is about the hidden self. In every one there is a real and hidden self which is different from the external false self. Everyone must realize this difference between the outer self and the inner self. The third secret is about the omnipresence of God. One must live in this world with the awareness that all that exists in this world is but Vasudeva. These three secrets are known as guhya (secret), guhyatara (more sectet) and guhyatma (most secret). The second third fourth fifth and eighteenth Chapters deal with the first secret. The second, sixth, thirteenth to eighteenth chapters deal with the second secret. The third, seventh, eight, ninth, tenth to eighteenth chapters deal with the third secret. Each verse and every chapter in it is loaded with multiple meanings, enabling each to understand it and interpret it in his own way. When we feel that we have understood it all can safely to elsewhere for inspiration, a particular verse or a chapter again starts bothering us with its new wisdom or a perplexing insight. That is why today we have so many interpretations of the Bhagavad-Gita form various scholars.
Each verse is considered to be a very sacred mantra. The seed mantra of this scripture is said to be the 11th verse in chapter 11. The Shakti mantra of this scripture, because of which it is endowed with the divine blessings and able to exert influence on the humankind for centuries, is said to be the 66th verse in chapter 18.

The Mridangam is a double-sided drum. The body of the instrument is made of one piece of wood. Hollow, the body has two opertures of different size, one very small, that will generate high-pitched sounds and another, wide, for low-pitched sounds. The walls of the instrument are 2/3 centiments thick and give it stability in the low frequencies. The goatskin, coupled to the high pitch opeture, wears a thick black disk made of flour, ferric oxide powder and starch stuck to its centre to allow the emission of harmonics. The skin coupled to the bas operture is coated in its middle with plain flour paste to give it a perfect tune. The two skins are stretched together with leather strips. The Mridangam is the main rhythm instrument of Carnatic Music- Music with Ghatam.

"When the transcendent absolute desires to manifest out of its own volition, there is a movement, a sitar, a throb. This primordial throb “adya spanda” starts a series of vibrations, which take the form of sound, “nada” which is the precursor of the creation of objects – nitya vak or Aksara. Aksara is represented by the seed symbol ‘AUM/OM’ for; it is the inexpressible fountain source of all the original rhythms of the supreme ether.
The foundation of all the creative sounds of the revealed word, ‘OM’ is the universal formulation of the energy of sound and speech.
Other seed sounds out of whose stuff, words of speech are woven are supposed to be the developed evolutions of ’OM’ ‘OM’ contains and sums up, synthesizes and releases, all the spiritual power and all the potentiality of ‘vak and sabda’ of all these sounds. All words and thoughts are an out flowering of the great ‘OM-‘OM’ the word, the Eternal, manifest in the form of sensible objects, manifest in that consicent powers of the Infinite. ‘OM’ is the sovereign source; seed sound ‘OM’ is the sound symbol that is use before every other ‘Manthre’. Om should lead towards the opening of the consciousness to the sight and feeling of the one, consciousness in all material things, in the inner being and in the supra-physical worlds, in the casual plane, above now super conscient to us and finally the supreme liberated transcendence above all cosmic existence.
Could there be a more simple seed sound than ‘OM’ for the meditation for human beings in this jet-set material life.

Imbalance created by action and passion, outer and inner events result in stress. The cause is not far to seek. Man thinks, he lives in the universe without realizing that the universe lives in him. Stress thus created, leads to all illness.
Music is the panacea and not merely a palliative for all the stress. It is the most non-violent form of therapy-no medicines, no surgery. It provides the support and sustenance of all plentitudes. It enables one to plunge into their heart and contemplate inwardly. Vibration created by music moves the whole the whole mechanism; the muscle, blood circulation and nervous system. No wonder, Tranquility is the result.

"There is Sanskrit saying “if one sees the Lord of Chidambaram, or If one takes birth at Tiruvarur or If one dies in Kasi , one will surely attain Liberation, but by merely thinking of Arunachala one gets this benefit”OM Nama Sivaya” is believed to be the most sacred and powerful mantra. It is said ‘One’`Arunachaleswaraya namah” has the equal power of chanting to one crore” Om Nama Sivaya” Sri Arunachala (Lord Siva) is the Lord and Master of the universe. The universal spirit ever shining in a blissful glory, the Brahman beyond name and form of fire “jyotir lingam”. Burns all the sins of his creations. Arunachala hill in Tamilnadu is the concrete from of Sri Arunachala, the Universal Lord. It’s that form of God that even our ordinary. For, the Aurnachala Hill itself is the biggest Siva Lingam in the world. (Brahmanda Lingam) This spiritual reality has been experienced and endorsed by many Siddhas. The Supreme Philosophical knowledge can easily be attained by anyone who sees or thinks about the form of this hill.
Aruanchala is the only holy place where the Lord gives eternally his viswaropa darsham. It is the spiritual solution for everyone, irrespective of race, religion or nationality. Arunachala is truly the holy mountain. It is truly Siva himself! Meditation on the divine name or singing the drive names of Arunachala will fetch enormous spiritual powers. The circumambulation of Arunachala hill or chanting his 1000 names Sahasranamavali is said to destroy the Karma of ten million births. No other spiritual pursuit has this kind of power.
Hence, to benefit our listeners Arunachala Sahasranamavali has been chanted by Dr.R.Thiagarajan Prof of Sanskrit Presidency College, Chennai, along with his team Sri.P.S.Raghuraman, Mrs.Usha Viswanath, Mrs.Umamaheshwari Mrs. Usha Ramachandran ms.Vijeta with the co-ordination of Mr.Manikkavinayakam, the music Director.

"Dattatreya represents all spiritual traditions. As an incarnation of God. Data was born to the sage Atri and Anasuya to spread the universality of true religion. He is the Eternal Spiritual Guide of all mankind. Dattatreya is usually depicted with three heads, symbolising Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, past present and future, and the three states of consciousness- waking dreaming and dreamless sleep. Around him are four dogs that symbolise the four Vedas.
The Saandilya Upanishad states, “The Supreme Brahman performed penance and desiring to become many, assumed the form of Dattatreya. From that, form came out the three letters AUM; the three mystical names Bhuh, Bhuvah and Svah; the three-linded Gayatri; the three Vedas Rig. Yajur and Sama; the three Gods Brahma Vishnu and Maheswara etc”. The name “Datta” signifies selfless sacrifice. The Dattatreya Upanishad explains this. “Not by action, not by progeny, nor even by self, but by renunciation (tyaaga) alone is immortality attained. “Real renunciation is the giving up of “I” and mine, not the mere abandoning of duties. Living a selfless life require giving up one’s ego. As a yiga-avatar, Lord Dattatreya teaches us to perform all our duties skillfully and diligently. Yoga does not require outside aids, nor does it demand great physical effort. All we have to do is change our outlook our mind will be freed from agitation and attain the restful state called “equanimity”. This is the state of Bliss that every soul ultimately aspires to. This is the state of Datta-the ultimate Gift to God.
Such a Divine Guru is prayed for in this Compact Disc by chanting Dattatreya Sahasranama and the Kavacha to secure his grace and guidance thought our life. Dr.R.Thaigarajan, Mrs.Umamaheshwari, Mrs.Usha Viswanath Mrs.Usha Ramachandran Ms.L.V.Vijeta Mr.P.S.Raghuraman, Mr.Sowmyanarayanan have recited them supported by mr.Manikkavinayakam.

"Sages, pleading for those much afflicted with struggles and sorrows, approached Lord Kumara and asked him for the path of permanent happiness, at once Lord Kumara suggested that if one performs the Sankatahara Chaturthi Pooja, done to Lord Vinayaka and follows the Vrata, and his life will be happy and prosperous. This Vrata was suggested by His brother Lord Vinayaka himself as a remedy for his mother Parvati, when despite her severe performed this on the advice of Lord Krishna and conquered the war. Further, Lord Shiva himself undertook the austerity prior to his burning Tripura. Lord Indra desirous of ruling over the three worlds and Lord Hanuman prior to starting his search for Sita performed this Vrata. The emperor Harishchandra also performed this Vrata to keep the people of his empire happy!
It is believed that the practice of this vrata bestows high educational acumen, knowledge wisdom, progeny and a disease free life! The day of performing this Pooja every month is generally notified in the Indian Calendars and almanacs.

"God has never failed to respond to the sincere appeal for help and protection made by men with faith and hope. He gets Himself” “bound” by their devotion and lavishes His grace on them. In this regard, worship of Subrahmanaya is effective, as he possessed the divine nature, super human personality, celibacy, humility, selflessness, devotion, determination, and fearlessness.

"God has never failed to respond to the sincere appeal for help and protection made by men with faith and hope. He gets Himself “bound” by their devotion and lavishes His grace on them. In this regard, worship of Subrahmanaya is effective.
Lords Subramanya is one of the most revered Deities. He is the second son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati and younger brother of Lord Ganesa. Subrahmanya is also known as Shanmukha-six faced one. His six faces represent wisdom, strength, wealth, fame, dispassion and divine power. His two spouses Valli and Devayani represent will and action respectively. He is also known as Skanda and Kartikeya. He is said to be the Presiding deity of this kali Yuga. His weapon, the javelin, symbolizes victory, and eventual restoration of peace and harmony, destroying arrogance, violence and injustice.
He is depicted riding a peacock. The peacock grips a cobra with its feet. The cobra represents the ego. This symbolizes complete control ver the ego when the ego is held firm and the desires are kept under perfect control, mangains mastery over the mind and reaches perfection. Man must realise that he is God-“Aham Brahma Asmi”: If he practices this, concentrates and meditates upon his real self, he becomes the Atman. He attains the state of Subrahmanya. Lord Subrahmanya has many names. Each one signifies His Power and chanting the thousand names of Subrahmanya, confers His grace on His devotees. They are blessed with numerous powers and the power of poesy as well.

"Only the supreme mother of universe is capable of saving us from misery, and hence we pray and worship her in the from of Lalita. Lalita means “She Who Prays”. Pleased with our worship, she bestows all the blessings of a good life and ultimately grants us liberation. All creation, manifestation and dissolution are considered to be a play of devi or the Goddess Mahatripurasundari. Chanting Sri Lalita Sahasranam daily with devotion is of the utmost value for spiritual growth and material prosperity.
Sri Lalita Sahasranama is an ancient hymn of 1000 names of the Divine Mother. Every name contains very powerful bijaksharas (seed letters) the sound vibrations of which transform both the body and mind. It is said that the Lalita Sahasranama is a stotra par excellence, capable of curing all fevers and diseases, giving all wealth, remedying premature death, bestowing long life and children. For the aspirants chanting the Lalita Sahasranama with faith and love is the royal highway to moksha, liberation!
This powerful stotra is narrated in the Brahmanda Purana, (Uttara Khanda) during the discourse between Havagriva and Agastya as the Secret of Secrets to pleae the Goddess and to derive her grace. Thus, it is a sacred stotra, a beautiful hymn of praise, extolling divine consciousness in the exquisitely lovely form of Lalita Devi, the playful and tender, Divine Mother. It was composed by the eight Vag Devatas, Goddesses of speech, at the command of divine mother herself. Lot of benefits is started in the Purana for chanting Lalita Sahasranama as well as Trisati (300 names of Devi) and a few alone are highlighted above.

"“Mananat –trayte it Mantra” – By the manana (contemplating) of which one is protected is mantra. A Mantra, is so called because it is achieved by the mental process. A mantra is divinity encased within a sound structure. It is divine power manifesting in a sound body. The Mantra is itself Devata.
A Moola Mantra is the combination of Bija Aksharas i.e., seed letters. It is a very powerful Mantra. Every Devata has his or her own Moola Mantra. Repetition of any Moola Mantra is Japa. In this age, practice of Japa is effective and can give eternal prosperity, peace, bliss and immortality. Doing Japa after the dhyanais good. Dhyana is meditation on the front of the Lord. During the performance of japa of a particular deity, the picture of the deity comes before our mind. Therefore japa and Dhyana go together.
Sounds are vibrations, Repetition of a Mantra has a mysterious power of bringing about the manifestation of the Divinity, just as the splitting of an atom manifests the tremendous forces latent in it. When a particular Mantra appropriated to a particular God is properly recited, the vibrations so set up create in the higher planes a special form which that God ensouls for the time being to fulfill the aspirations of the devotees.
In this compact disc some of the important Moola Mantras are recited to facilitate proper diction of pronouncing the mantras. These are recited by Dr.R.Thyagarajan, Prof. of Sanskrit Presidency College, Chennai, along with his team sri.P.Raghuramam and Sri Shanmukha Sundaram supported by Manikkavinayagam, the Music Director.

Invocation to Deities is of different kinds. We praise and pray to the deity to secure the grace of them. Suprabhatham is a mode of prayer done early in the morning as if awakening the Lord, though the Lord is ever awake.

Among the four Vedas, Viz Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atharva, the Yajurveda has two branches called Krishna Yajurveda and Sukla Yajurveda. Yagnavalkya the Sage, the Philosopher and the Yogiswara was the founder of Sukla Yajurveda. The speciality of this Veda lies in the “Swara” (the accent and intonation) which makes the distinction between krsna Yajurveda and Sukla Yajurveda. Again this sukla Yajurveda has two schools, the Madhyandina and Kanva. The Kanva rendition is rare and for the first time some glimpses of the rendering of this rendition has been brought our and also preserved for posterity, in the Compact Disc format for the sake of tour listeners!
This compact disc begins with Yagnavalkya Dhyana and continues the prayer to Lord Ganapati, Goddess Saraswati and Savitri. Then starts, KanvaRudram an effactious Vedic hymn that extols the omnipresence, omni potency and the omni science of Lord Shiva. While chanting this hymn the vibration is created in the atmosphere of the cosmos which drives away all evils, bestows mental peace, wisdom and at last salvation. It is equivalent to the chanting of the entire Veda. The Purusha Sukta which enunciates the Supreme Being and reveals the grand concept of cosmogony. The whole universe is only the part of Him and He is the whole. By contemplating on Him one gets more than what is desired for, and gets rid of fear. Then follows Shanthi Sukta (richam vacham) for attaining peace in all spheres.
The Chanting of Lsavasya Upanishad a part of Sukla Yajurveda samhita itself contains the basic concepts in brevity, which are expanded in other Upanishads. This compact disc concludes with the rhythmic Fana Chanting a device followed for preserving the Vedas and also some important extracts form the Brahadarnyaka Upanishad. All these mantras are recited by the eminent Ganapati Parasurama Sastri along with his disciple Srinivasa Sarma being Co-ordinated by Prof.R.Thiagarajan, H.O.D.of Sanskrit Presidency College, Chennai and Mr.Manikkavinayagam, the famous Music Director.

The present day heavy schedule in ever body’s life deprives many normal needs of individuals. In that many needs, sleep is also one among the many and it is the basic requirement for an individual to get along with his daily routines. If we deprive ourselves from sleep for 35 hours continuously the normal function of the brain gets disturbed and the balance is at stake. The level of serotonin is reduced and the relaxing mind also gets feeble. Hence normal sleep of six to eight hours in a day without disturbance is must for every individual. Bur the requirement of sleep hours may vary individually.
Sleep is restorative, during sleep some of the vital substance gets re-synthesized in the nervous system. Any how for the so called normal and for the disturbed individuals, classical music does a wonderful effect on their sleep patterns.

The present day negative stress leads to many physiological problems. It comes to surface by affecting the physiological functions of one or more organs either temporarily or permanently. Heart and Pancreas are the easily affected organs.
In the Diabetic, the carbohydrate supply of the liver is low, due to deficient storage primarily as a consequence of lack of insulin. Because of that lack, sugar cannot pass from the blood into the liver and other cells that require it; thus blood sugar level is high. The sugar in the form of complex carbohydrate (glycogen), which is released into the blood stream on demand-the demand typically being the action of epinephrine.
Classical music as a refined sound stimulates the “Beta Cell” activity in the organ and ensures normality over a period in all aspects. In emotional situations, blood sugar level is often affected. Classical music helps to present the quality of neurotransmitters-epinephrine in a subtle manner. Music plays a wonderful role in this aspect. The selected ragas given in this album are very special with its effects with regard to its notes/swaras and the way it been essayed.
The research has been carried out by Dr.T.Mythily, PhD, a Research Scholar, a Clinical Psychologist, and Music Therepist.

Learning takes place only with memory. Learning is the process of building up memories for future use. Neural basis for retention is termed as “engram”. Memory is the “static residue” of past activity in a neural pathway. Each learning trial involves reactivating the same neural circuit. Eventually, the circuit is in some sense permanently modified, and when it stimulated only partially later, the entire circuit is reactivated.
Music enhances the bio-chemical nature of the memory. The Swaras/notes of the selected ragas are played in such a way to activate the potential chemical agent. The individual memory is the prime satisfying aspect in the therapy. Music as refined sounds gets into the neural circuit to take its own specified neural path. There are a number of chemical substances are involved in the “memory molecule”. The selected ragas given in this album are very special with its effects with regard to its notes/swaras and the way it has been essayed. These ragas help to activate the neural circuit and enhance the concentration of the individual.

The present day heavy schedule on individuals and work pressure tolls, first the mindset and then many organs. The beating heart is a delicate mechanism, highly sensitive to emotion-provoking situations. Many research and several independent studies relate emotional circumstances to physiological conditions effecting cardiovascular function as well as to the cardiovascular pathology.

Stress is the most imprecise word in the scientific dictionary. The present day heavy schedule of work and other activities extols the individual’s positive mindset.
Stress has become a major buzzword and legitimate concern of the times. Stress is an inevitable part of everyday life for every one of us. Stress is of two types. One is positive the other is negative. Negative stress leads to physiological problems, which in turn leads to psychosomatic problems. Continuous exposure to stress, the individual’s Psychological and physiological resources become depleted; leads to gastrointestinal problems.
Stress either positive or negative music plays a wonderful role in overcoming the same. Ragas with specific notes with its vibration give relief from stress and help maintain freshness of the mind. Listening to music as a habit enhances the quality of some chemicals in the brain neurotransmitters-which are helpful in restoring calm and relaxation. The selected ragas given in this album are very special with its effects with regard to its notes/swaras and the way it has been essayed.

Pious tradition reckons her to be the veritable descent of Bhumi Devi (Mother Earth) in bodily form to show humanity the way to His lotus feet. She is present in all Sri Vanishnava temples, in India and elsewhere, next to her Lord, as she always desired.
Andal is remembered for her poetry, in which she often strikes autobiographical notes about her love for her Lord. She describes herself as a young girl, still not fully mature, pining away for Him. She beseeches her friends, the god of love, and even animals for help in her quest to attain Him. Finally, she describes her good fortune of being the daughter of Vishnucitta, the best of the devout, who lives in Srivilliputtur and adores the Lord.
Her first work is the Tiruppavai, a poem of thirty verses in which Andal imagines herself to be a cowherd girl during the incarnation of Lord Krishna. She yearns to serve Him and achieve happiness not just in this birth, but for all eternity, and describes the religious vow (pavai) that she and her fellow cowgirls will take for this purpose.
Thiruppavai the collection of 30 hymns considered as the necklace among the prabhandams is the yearning for eternal service to god with the total and unconditional surrender to GOD.

The ancient sages of India unlocked the secrets life for humanity. Their wisdom is embodied in the great mantras which they have given us. The greatest of these is the single syllable ‘Om’, which is the first name of God. It is the primal vibration that emanated in the process of creation. Chanting of Om, the queen of all mantras and their source as well, restores the spiritual balance of the individual and brings peace and strength. The ganapati mantra, Krishna Gayatri matra, Lalita Gayatri mantra and Surya Gayatri mantra are again powerful chants that brings success, wisdom, health and prosperity to as paints. Another special feature of this album is a rendering of the tenth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, the Vibhooti yoga in which Lord Krishna speaks of His manifestations in the world. A remarkable array of divine vibrations await you in this excellent album.

The greatest step in the history of mankind was taken by the Vedic seers of India around five thousand years ago. When they pierced through the iron curtain of death shrouding man and experienced immortality and infinitude. Their path-breaking experiences are gathered in the Vedic lore, not as the work of human beings however great, but as the revelations of the Supreme. This rare album distills some beautiful Vedic hymns as well as powerful mantras from the post-vedic period. The Siva Sankalpa rings in the ancient tones of auspiciousness, while the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad sections (Braahmanam) I and II of the first chapter) take us right into the heart of the ancient search. Speaking in the context of the great Aswamedha sacrifice, the passages assert that knowledge of the Supreme Brahman alone is capable of freeing the soul from all its limitations. The purusha Suktam gives us a glimpse of the Cosmic from of god. Chants (Om Sri Ramaya Namaha). Powerful hymns (Mahishasuramardini) time tested recitals for all round well-being (Aditya Hridayam), protective chants (Sundarshna Kavacham) and Vedic benedictions (Bhadra Suktam) also form part of this valuable album.

The Devis and Devatas (goddesses and deities) of Hinduism only represent the different functions and powers of the one Supreme God. The deities are shown as male and female because the existence of the manifested universe depends upon the primary differentiation of the Supreme Reality into two opposite aspects, one positive and the other negative. This is the secret behind Lord Krishna’s assertion in the Bhagavad Gita that prayers addressed to all gods reach only the Supreme Being. In this album ‘Mantras of Gods and Goddesses’, we first address our prayers to Ganapati, the elephant faced Lord of good beginnings. When we begin our endeavors with his blessings, they are bound to be successful. Adoration of Ganapati brings victory, wealth and yogic realization. The Lakshmi Ashottaram and Ashtalakshmi Stotram bring the positive vibrations of Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, auspiciousness and compassion. Authentic versions of Subramanya Gayatri (removal of bad effects of Mars), Dhanvantri Gayatri (freedom from diseases of every kind) and Hanuman Gayatri (intellectual might, strength, courage) follow. The prayer to the twelve jyoti lings (aspects of light) of Shiva and chanting of Om Arunachaleswaraya Namaha is another aspect of this important album.

The Vedas, which are the fountainhead of Hinduism, are considered to be the breath of God. The import is that they embody the subtle vibrations responsible for the creations of the universe. When we chant or given ear to the Vedic mantras we connect ourselves to the most powerful sound on earth. This carefully structured album begins with homage to Ganapati, the god of good beginnings, and presents the third section of the Brihadaranyaka, the greatest of the Upanishads, called the Udgeetha Brahmana; it narrates the Vedic allegory of the gods and demons and reveals that only the knowledge of the Supreme Self can annihilate man’s ignorance. This album also includes very powerful chants like the Sarabha Gayatri (victory over enemies), Varaha Gayatri (cure for poisonous bites) and very powerful chants like the Sarabha Gayatri (victory over enemies), Varaha Gayatri (cure for poisonous bites) and Pratyangra mantras (achievement of aim) which give certain victory in all endeavors.

In the Transcendental state, God is the only realty. But in the relative world in which we live, He is the King of Kings. The Hindu worships the deity in the temple as a great king and receives boons from Him. This is an experience of life. Just as the king is roused from sleep with music and panegyrics early at dawn, the deity at the temple is Worshipped with Suprabhathams. When the devotes wakes up form a refreshing night’s sleep, he first worships the Lord with fervour. The sacred vibrations that flow into the devotes because of contemplation on the divine form at dawn, give him the strength and power to see life in the proper perspective, In this excellent album, there are powerful dawn hymns like sriman Narayana (in the delightful morning raga Bhouli), Uchishta Ganpati Suprabhaatam (victory in all endeavours) and yogalakshmi Narasimha Suprabhatham (good luck, victory over enemies, riches). The Muthuswami Dikshithar hymn (morning prayers) on Lalitha. Shiva and Durga are divine prayers that confer great blessing on the devotee. The gayatri mantras brim with powerful vibrations. The gayatri mantra proper confers a mighty intellect, strength and spiritual vision. Sudarshana gayatri (victory, power, protection) and Dhanvantri gayatri (health energy) are valuable mantras. Om, the one-syllabled name of the Almighty is the pinnacle of mantra power. By awakening the Lord, one awakens one’s own luck, spiritual vision and divine energy.

A Mantra is more than uttered prayer, more than physical sound. It is a potent Compelling force, as it consists of words of power. By the chanting and repetition of a mantra. Or by meditation on it (through hearing), the deity is attained and compelled to act in one’s favour. For, the mantra of a deity is the deity itself. Sincerity, devotion and steadfastness in chanting and hearing mantras transform a person and brings spiritual clarity and balance. ‘ Inner Power of Mantras’ begins with a rare chanting that reinforces the Vedantic truth that all organs, gods and worlds emanate from the Supreme self as little sparks from a fire (Brihadaranyaka, Section I of Part II). The incantatory effect of this sublime Upanishad passage casts a divine spell on the listener. The Rudram and Chamakam are powerful hymns from the Veda, and are chanted to this day in most Siva temples. Also called Namakam, Shatarudriya and Rudropanishad, the Rudram which occurs in the Yajur Veda is said to be superior to all the Vedas put together. Freedom from the effects of past sins, right knowledge and release from bondage are the effects of devout listening to the chanting of Rudram and Chamakam. Om Arunachaleswaraaya Namaha (addressed to the Lord of the Spiritual hill, Tiruvannamalai), Sir Sundarshana Gayatri (success in endeavours, triumph over inimical forces), Sri Shyamala Gayatri (mastery over subjects, power of discrimination) and Mritynijaya Mantra (health, freedom from disease longevity) are among other powerful mantras in this album. The Lalitha Pancharatnam brings good fortune, knowledge, and great happiness. A priceless array of mantras.

The great sages of India called the early hours of dawn as ‘Brahma Muhoortha’ – the hour of the gods. It is the period of time most conducive to meditation on the divine forces. ‘Music for Morning Meditation’ builds on the potent vibrations of early morning with the powerful Ahir Bhairav raga. The limpid notes recreate the cool tranquility of dawn and establish harmony and happiness in the individual. The mind is enlivened and feels divine exhilaration. This is followed by a beautiful tonal poem to Ushas, the beautiful Vedic goddess of daybreak. The roseate and golden hues of the skies are mirrored in the captivating strains of Charukesi. The exquisite beauty of creation unfolds in wondrous cadences. The energizing power of the magnificent Sun is then set forth in the puissant notes of Bhoopali. The final dhun underscores the fact that all work is worship of the divine.

The mantra rings in the ambience of meditation and music sustains the mood in this special album meant to guide you to realms of eloquent silence. ‘Om Satyam, Gnaanam, Anantham’ (Om Truth, Knowledge and Infinity) chants the Guru from whom the fragrant bamboo takes over with whisphering cadeneces of mellow Madhuvanti raga. The vibraphones build up the atmosphere of peace. The onset of meditational ecstacy is echoed by the Guru’s mantra “Om Brahmaanandam Paramasukhadam” (Om, the rapture of Brahman, the ultimate Bliss), which the bamboo weaves into magical webs captivating Chandrakauns. The sweet strains of innocent happiness culminate the meditation. An album you will cherish.

During the month of Phalgun, i.e. February –March, on the 14th night of the new moon, millions of devotees of Lord Shiva celebrate the holiest night of the year, Mahashivarathri.Observed both as a discipline and also as a festival, devotees observe this auspicious occasion by keeping a strict fast and staying awake throughout night. They venerate the Lord through meditation and also by chanting his name, singing his praises, intoning “Shri Rudram” and by pouring holy water on the Shiva Linga. (Abhisheka)
Once in mount Kailas, Parvati asked Shiva, “O Venerable Lord! Which of the many rituals observed in thy honour doth please thee most?” To this, the Lord replied, “It is Shivarathri”.It is believed that worshipping Shiva on this day bestows prosperity, inner peace and power that all human beings aspire to attain in their path to ultimate salvation.

The Tabla Tarang represents a tour de force of transforming the tabla from a percussion instrument into a vehicle of melody. In the tabla tarang, the ‘dayan’ drums of the tabla are tuned to different pitches in the ascending order to enable the playing of melody. In this rare programme, veteran ‘tabla tarang’ player H.P.Ramamurthy, who comes in the line of Ganayogi Panchakshara Gavai, makes the tabla tarang ‘ sing’ in classical, folk and devotional styles. Taking advantage of track recording, he has also accompanied himself on the tabla. This is an exhilarating treat of music played with exceptional élan on a rare instrument.

The sweetness of tone of the bamboo flute and the liquid grace of the gottuvadyam, the ancient fretless stringed instrument, wonderfully complement each other in this distinctive album of Carnatic masterpieces. B.V.Balasai (flute) and A.aDurgaprasad (gottuvadyam), individual musicians of proven merit and charisma, have struck out a lovely path of congenial duetting that has led to gracious and dignified music of the highest caliber. The musical variations that the duo invests on the compositions bear the stamp of maturity and classicism. From a choice culling of pieces form the Carnatic Trinity (Muthuswami Dikshithar’s Varali piece Maamava Meenakshi is the central composition) to the wonderful Kanada song of Swati Tirunal (‘Maamava Sada Janani’) and the masterworks of contemporary composers like Papanasam Sivan (Naanoru Vilaiyaattu) and Thanjavur Sankara Iyer (the masterly Ranjani Mala), melligluity, sublimity and class are the hallmarks of the playing here. A delectable fare of first – rate music.

This is a tasteful attempt at taking famous and catchy compositions of great composers to a larger audience by imaginatively giving them a setting mood, harmony and context. Talented flutist B.V.Balasai, whose sweet tonality, excellent blowing and grasp of the Carnatic idiom have made him a byword for versatility, has played the flute apart form scoring and arranging the background music. Evergreen hits like Brahmam Okate (The Supreme truth is one), Kurai Ondrum Illai (Rajaji’s rare offering), Muruganin Maru Peyar Azhagu (the bewitching beauty in Behag), and Krishna Nee Begane (the magic of Yamuna Kalyani) are dressed up in brilliant fineries of melody and rhythm. Western bounce, Carnatic charm, folk allure, light classical appeal…. all these in a sensitively evoked musical atmosphere backed up mainly by Balsa’s flute go to make ‘Moods of Bamboo’ an unforgettable album.

The shadows grow longer as the sun inclines towards the west, and the day’s activity begins to wane. As one grows sensitive to the natural cycles, the rosy hues of twilight become an invitation to meditation. Appropriate music greatly enhances the atmosphere of calm, giving one spiritual, mental and physical peace. ‘Music for Evening Meditation’ brings contemplative music of the highest quality from time-honoured Indian raags. Yaman, which has strong associations with the evening, creates a distinctive ambience of peace and tranquility. As the raag exploration soars up the higher octave a feeling of ecstacy and rapture is generated. The soft, lyrical tones of the Dilruba attuned to the ringing notes of the tambura build an experience of quiet and serenity that one yearns to return to again and again. Ragas Mishra Khamaj and Bhoopati build on the tryst with serenity.

The chakras are centres of vital energy in the subtle body, revealed by the great sages of India. Imbalances in the chakras caused by sprees, wrong thinking and trauma, lead to obstruction in psychic energy flow. When balanced, the Sahastraara or Crown chakra opens up the individual to universal consciousness and it slimitless energy and joy. Imbalances blight the inner life. Attuning the mind to the vibrations of Darbari Kanada, the great raga associated with the crown chakra, rewards the listener with divine wisdom, Tranquility and inner richness.

"“Jyotirgamaya” has been created to support the cause of our welfare trust “Trinayani”. I thank all my friends for their invaluable contribution towards the making of this album.
A prayer does not is looking for the right path, a prayer leads us to the ever-shining zone of light, the ultimate haven, where one is always welcome as a human. I believe that this feeling is no different from the way a child, in its purest form feels, when it looks for refuge at the bosom of its mother. A prayer takes us to that place, where one is always welcome. Despite ones pretensions, sins or failures and is secured in the embrace of the Divine. I am fortunate enough to be able to create this album, which I have dedicated not only to my mother by to the ever-embracing divinity of motherhood at large.
Besides as a compilation of some brilliant prayer songs this album is a pathfinder in terms of bringing cult figures such as Kabir, Yakrang, Narayan Swami, Khalas and Bhaji together. The content of the songs have a universal appeal and will speak to all beyond the barriers to age and time.

"It is the experience of the sages of India that human life is a great opportunity for spiritual evolution. They looked at the entire spectrum of life from the spiritual angle. It was in this manner that they discovered the chakra, psychic energy centres in the hyman body that shows the path of higher consciousness. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The heart chakra, called the’ anahata’ chakra because the sages heard the unstruck sound there, is the wish fulfilling centre which confers all boons as well as the greatest blessings of everlasting life. Imbalance in its functioning leads to arrogance, greed and vanity, while its health confers optimism, endeavor and the capacity to discriminate between truth and untruth. Bhairav, also called the Adi Raaga the first raaga, is associated with the heart chakra, and bestows all the positive vibrations of the chakra on the listener. In this rare album,
Pandit Pandurang Parate of the Tanras gharana plays Bhairav in the authentic traditional way on the majestic Surbahar.

The sages of India found answers to the great questions of life and revealed the way of everlasting life and happiness. One of their great discoveries was that the body is a microcosm of the universe. They found the subtle body to be a marvelous universe of crisscrossing nerves called naadis and energy centers called chakras. They also perceived the deities who presided over the powers of these chakras so that aspirants could contemplate the deities, go up the ladder of the energy centers, and realize the highest potential of their life. This album is graded to take you up the chakras by making you contemplate the powers that are dormant in them. Ganapati, the elephant headed god who ensures success by averting hindrances presides over the Mooladhara, even as Sakti, the mother goddess represents the entire cosmos. The planet concerned in this respect is Mars. We have here traditional Sanskrit scholars spiritedly rendering the hymns connected with each energy centre. We move up to the six petalled Swadishthana and with Saraswati and the planet Mercury attunes ourselves to its benign vibrations. In this way we move up to the six chakra, the Ajna where the vibrations of the Pranava guide us to the regions beyond mind and word. Still future, Dakshinamurthi, the supreme guru illumes us with the true vision of our divinity culminating in the Vedic benediction. Chakra Chants for you to travel to the Beyond with the help of the divine deities.

"The Vedic religion, popular known as Hinduism, helps people live a life a fulfillment through manifold spiritual insights embodied in mantras and sacred hymns. Hinduism looks upon the body and life on earth as the expression of divinity and teaches us the art of expanding the horizons of our consciousness. The mantras in this album, recited by authoritative Sanskrit scholars, put us directly in the current of divine vibrations. Tap the pristine fountains of the Gayatri mantra, the supreme prayer for light and direction from the Supreme Intelligence called God, and you have the guaranteed key to health, peace, power and prosperity. Aditya Hridayam, the great hymn addressed to Surya, the sun god, which helped Lord Rama himself in the culminating duel of the Ramayana is a proven chant for success in every sense for everyone. The Purusha Sukta hymn again ensures all round happiness and well-being. Mantras pertaining to Dhanvantri, the divine physician who brings the knowledge of good health, are again assured ways of achieving healing. Powerful mantras of Sudarshana, the discus of Mahavishnu and the very repository of the Lord’s power, Narasimha, the man-lion incarnation of Mahavishnu, and of Lord Siva, whose very name spells auspiciousness, and other Upanishadic taxts are time-honoured measures to achieve health, wealth and success.

Prosperity is one of the great aims (purusharthas) of human life, according to the Hindu sages. It finds the second place in the fourfold aim of dharma (righteous life), artha (wealth), kaama (desire and physical fulfillment) and moksha (liberation). Mahalakshmi is the goddess of wealth and good fortune. Mantras and Sanskrit hymns addressed to her result in the prosperity and well-being of those who propitiate her. Mahalakshmi is the embodiment of compassion and showers devotees with the boons they seek. This album has the choicest selection of mantras and hymns rendered in the right diction by experienced scholars meant to harness benign vibrations of powerful Sanskrit syllables. Following the propitiation of Ganapati (who too is considered to preside over success and wealth) and Kubera (Vedic god of wealth), there are a string of hymns of Mahalakshmi capped by the Kanakadhaara Stotra, a powerful chant composed by the great Adi Shankara himself as a sure means of getting the grace of the goddess of wealth (Kanakadhaara mean shower of gold). Prayers to Lakshmi Hayagreeva (Hayagreeva is a manifestation of Vishnu as knowledge) and Sudarshana, the deity who represents the power and might of Mahavishnu, are capped by Vedic chants for wealth and well-being. Albums that will make you count your blessings.

Sanskrit is the language of Satya Yuga as it is based on the true and perfect relationship between sound and sense. That is why hymns created in Sanskrit by sages and seers give various beneficial results to those who worshipped not only as the sustainer as part of the Trinity, but as the Supreme Being, are culled to shower the choicest blessing on devotees. This album, offered by traditional Sanskrit scholars with perfect diction, begins with a hymn to the Lord who takes ten major incarnations to come to the succour of mankind. It is followed by authoritative chants to Sri Krishna, the supreme avater who declares that he will look after the well-being of devotees who surrender to Him. This is followed by Raghuveera Gadyam, a powerful tribute to Sri Rama, God as perfect Man, composed by savant Vedanta Desika and recitation of the mantra of Rama. A rare hymn to Vamana, the Vishnu avatar who grew up to be Trivikrama, the Lord who strode the three worlds in three steps, and gave liberation to Bali by crushing his ego is another powerful chant, potent prayers to Narasimha (the man lion avater), Sudarshana, the Lord’s discuss and symbol of His might, Hayagreeva (the horse-headed aspect of Vishnu who is a repository of art and knowledge), and Balaji (the vouchsafer of boons in the kali Yuga) follow.

"The chakras are subtle centers in the body (Corresponding to the nerve plexuses in the spinal cord) which channelise the psychic and spiritual energy lying dormant at the base of the spine (Kundalini Shakti). Because the upward movement of the energy is spiral when it is awakened, it is called serpent power. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The Ajna Chakra is the centre between the eyebrows, and is called the seat of the guru. It is here that the sacred syllable Aum is situated. This is the centre where the mind is full of peace and stability. Since the three major nadis, ida, pingala and sushumna reconverge here, it is called the triple confluence of freedom (Mukta-Triveni). A balanced third eye chakra gives wisdom, discrimination and illumination, while disharmony in this sphere spells mental chaos, insensitivity and visual impairment. Bageswari is the raga associated with this chakra. The sensitively played music is this album will balance the chakra and bring charity of mind, incisive vision and peace.

"It is the experience of the sages of Indian that human life is a great opportunity for spiritual evolution. They looked at the entire spectrum of life form the spiritual angle. It was in this manner that they discovered the chakras, psychic energy centers in the human body that shows the path to higher consciousness. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The Vishuddha Chakra, the Fifth chakra is located in the throat. It is the centre of the ether (aakaasha) Principle, and the power of hearing, speaking and creativity are associated with it (being the dwelling place of Saraswati, the goddess of learning). It is described as the region of the moon, the moon without a single blemish, the ‘gateway of the great liberation’. One, who mingles with this chakra by concentration, becomes a great sage enjoying perennial peace of mind. Such a person’s words and thoughts become the engines of spiritual energy. An unbalanced and unhealthy throat chakra severely impeds the capacity to communicate with others and also creates problems related to the thyroid, throat and ear. When the Throat Chakra is in fine balance, the individual reaches the peak of creativity and inspiration. Raaga Jaijaivanti is associated with the throat chakra and bestows all the positive vibrations of the chakra on the listener. In this reare album, Pandit Veereshwar Madri, who comes in the line of Panchakshari Gawai of the Gadag school of Hindustani music, plays Jaijavanti in the authentic traditional way on the rare instrument, the Tarshenai.

"Sanskrit is called the language of the gods (devabhasha) as it is based on the true and perfect relationship between sound and sense. It has been said that Sanskrit is not just a language but a power, ‘with every one of its vowels and consonants having a particular and inalienable force’ (Sri Aurobindo). Sages created divine hymns in Sanskrit to attune devotees to spiritual truths. The grand verse of the Isavasya Upanishad shows the way to all humanity the secret and meaning of life – ‘As everything is enveloped by God, enjoy life by giving up. Do not cover anything’. The wonderful vibrations of the Gayatri Mantra (defined as the chant that protects those who intone it) and the sonorous Vedic chants ‘Purusha Sookta’ makes you envision a divine world of beauty world of beauty and light. Chants to Hayagreeva (the horse-headed deity giving knowledge and mastery of action), Mrityunjaya (Siva’s aspect giving health and longevity), Dhanvantri (deity giving good health) and Mahalakshmi (goddess ensuring success and wealth) rendered by authentic Sanskrit pundits with accurate diction will enable you to enjoy the choicest blessings of these benign powers. ‘Secret Chants’ will open your life to the healing touch of divine mantras.

"The Hindu scriptures assure mankind of immortality, not as the reward for a religious or righteous life but as the consequence of one’s divine nature.

"The great sages of India were practical visionaries who envisaged the spiritual destiny of man based on their own inner experiences. They considered the body as the temple of god and made in the basis for man’s greater voyage into subtler worlds. Such was their discovery of the serpent power, the Kundalini that lies coiled at the base of the spine, the ‘nadis’, channels of the subtle body that carry the vital energy, and the ‘chakras’ psychic energy centers in the sushumna nadi ( the most important channel that extends from the base of the spine to the crown of the head). The health and correct balance of the chakras gives a fruitful life and expands the consciousness to the divine level. The Manipuraka, which is the third chakra in the ascending order, is the centre that gives energy, optimism and transforming power to the individual. As its name indicates, the Manipuraka chakra glows like a lustrous gem, which is not surprising since it is the centre of the element fire. When the chakra is purified, it frees the person from the burning desire for worldly pleasures. All the negative energies and impurities of the ego are burnt up at the altar of this fiery centre. Raaga Malkauns is associated with Manipuraka and bestows all the positive vibrations of the chakra on the listener. In this remarkable album of soothing music based on the chakra’s raga, the strains of the sitar, flute, tabla and shehnai mingle seamlessly in the music of Ganesh Muthu, a disciple of Ustad Ahmad Hussain Khan of the Achpal gharana. You have a magical web of caressing melody here.

The life force of normal men and women lies dormant at the base of ths spine (the Muladhara chakra), and they see everything through the series of chakras, the subtle centres of energy. One can therefore imagine what will happen in the case of imbalance of the chakra. It is for this reason that the harmony of the chakras is important. The various chakras are presided over by deities and by meditating on them through apt mantras and hymns one can balance the chakras. Ganapati, the elephant-headed god who removes obstacles is to be meditated upon with the Ganapati Gayatri as presiding over the Mooladhara chakra at the base of the spine. The names of Vishnu and the hymn to Garuda, the white-necked kite that carries him, while contemplating the Swadishtana chakra at the root of the sexual organ give one the crucial balance with regard to the sexual drive. Rudra Gayatri (Manipuraka, the navel chakra), Isavasya Upanishad (Anahata, heart centre), Nataraja Gayatri and Thandava (at Vishudhi, throat chakra – the seat of the ether principle,) Omkara Dhyanam (at Ajna, third eye chakra which takes one beyond the realms of mind into pure awareness) and Guru and Dakshinamurthi hymns (at the thousand petalled lotus of illumination in the crown of the head), gradually expand the horizons of human consciousness to the divine level. Vibrate to the rhythms of the chakra deities and make for a harmonious success in life.

SURBAHAR : Also known as, bass sitar is a pluked string instrument used in the Hindustani classical music of North India. It has a deep, sonorous and ringing tone. The popularity of the sitar as a classical instrument has all but eclipsed the surbahar.
DILRUBA: Is a stringed instrument of the bowed variety with a fingerboard and frets, which resemble the sitar. The instrument resembles the sarangi; its belly too is covered with skin and it too is played with a bow. All the nuances of the sarangi are possible on the Dilruba, which makes both instruments ideal as accompaniment as also solo play.
TABLA TARANG: Is a take off from the Tabla and makes this rhythmic accompaniment a melodic instrument by using a number of treble drums. These drums are tuned to the various notes of the octave, which enables the player to coax ragas and melodies from them. The Tabla player who has attained finesse in playing his instrument may venture into tabla tarang playing and become the main player. Disjunct notes and limited range (not more than 16 instruments can be played because the player cannot reach out to too many) are the limitations of the instrument. Yet it is a novelty as it turns a rhythmic instrument into a melody instrument. Sound is produced by striking the tablas with the fingers and is both mellow and melodious

TABLA TARANG: Is a take off from the Tabla and makes this rhythmic accompaniment a melodic instrument by using a number of treble drums. These drums are tuned to the various notes of the octave, which enables the player to coax ragas and melodies from them. The Tabla player who has attained finesse in playing his instrument may venture into tabla tarang playing and become the main player. Disjunct notes and limited range (not more than 16 instruments can be played because the player cannot reach out to too many) are the limitations of the instrument. Yet it is a novelty as it turns a rhythmic instrument into a melody instrument. Sound is produced by striking the tablas with the fingers and is both mellow and melodious.
DILRUBA: Is a stringed instrument of the bowed variety with a fingerboard and frets, which resemble the sitar. The instrument resembles the sarangi; its belly too is covered with skin and it too is played with a bow. All the nuances of the sarangi are possible on the Dilruba, which makes both instruments ideal as accompaniment as also solo play.
SURBAHAR: Also known as, bass sitar is a pluked string instrument used in the Hindustani classical music of North India. It has a deep, sonorous and ringing tone. The popularity of the sitar as a classical instrument has all but eclipsed the surbahar.

"This album aids to discover the true “self” by rendering music for the soul. Many type of music influence our moods; but chants/mantras help to stir the soul and achieve spiritual enlightenment. While music is widely acceptedto be therapeutic, saashwathi believes that spiritualitycan also result in a cathartic release of emotions and negatives, resulting in a lessening of burdens and achieving purity of mind and soul. By selecting specific hymns and prayers from Hindu religious texts and setting them to complementing melody, she has given the listener easy accass to powerful mantras and slokas without underminingn their inherent spirituality, yet enhancing their influence with unforgettable melody. Mantras connect the individual with the divine .In the Hindu philosophy,mantras, being sacred sound vibrations, are composed of sacred syallables representative of and cotaining within, great spiritual power or energy,which can awaken one’s, true self. Chanting the mantras in a proper manner generates spiritual energy, facilitating the soul to transcend to higher levels and the mind, promotes harmony on all levelson all levels, and helps to dissolve the karmas just as constant walking over weeds crushes them

"Paramashiva, or the ‘Supreme Being,’ is seen in many different forms, especially through song and dance. Often referred to as the destroyer or transformer of the Hindu Trinity, Lord Shiva is also one of the most complex and fascinating deities. Sandeep Narayan shows us a glimpse of Shiva’s power through the krithis on this album. They feature both a variety of melodic scales, as well as rhythmic structures between compositions, and within the compositions themselves. The thillana is traditionally a compositional form seen in bharathanatyam, and acts not only as a concluding piece for this album, but as an ode to Shiva, the cosmic dancer.

"Why do we chant the Yoga Sutra of Maharishi Patanjali? When we write things out and work with the written word, we are dealing with external forms. The written form is the grossest level of interpretation of oral traditions. When we chant we use our vocal apparatus to produce the sound. This process brings us into the eternal NOW. When we write, a long lapse of time can pass between the time of writing and our re-reading. When we chant, the action brings us in the present moment. The process of chanting demands full attention, at least on the physical level. There is also the question of resonance. Chanting evokes and invokes resonance in letters and words. All mantra can be chanted in three forms: the manasika from (chanting in the mind) is the subtlest of forms, the vachika form (chanting externally, uttering sound) is in between, and the likita (writing) is the grossest. The subtlest way to approach the sutra would be to chant them at the level of the mind. Yet, this requires full knowledge of what one is doing. It follows that when we chant we are in the NOW, we are vibrating, and we know what we are uttering so that when we move to the subtlest plane and we chant without uttering sound, in our mind, we are as close as possible to the most perfect sounds.

"Sacred Chants
1. Atma Shatakam: The great Adi Shankara (first Shankaracharya) of the eighth century summarized the entirety of Advaita Vedanta (non-dualistic philosophy) in six stanzas. When a young boy of eight, while wandering in the Himalayas, seeking to find his guru, he encountered a sage who asked him, “Who are you?” The boy answered with these stanzas, which are known as “Nirvana Shatakam” or “Atma Shatakam.” “Nirvana” is complete equanimity, freedom and joy. “Atma” is the True Self. The sage the Boy was talking to was Swami Govindapada Acharya, who was, indeed, the teacher he was looking for.
2. Bhavani Ashtakam: This is a prayer to mother Divine, Devi Bhavani, composed by Adi Jagadguru Sri Shankaraacarya Bhagvatpada in a high state of devotion and Divine bliss to uplift the consciousness of devotees. This great ashtakam (that which contains 8 verses) is composed by Sri Adi Sankara and it would move any one who reads it to tears. If a great soul like Him, had to desribe himself, thus, Imagine the state of an ignoramus like any one of us.

"As tiny beings, babies require quite a few things the average human would need, but in smaller portions or in different wavelengths. For instance, sunlight…. It’s not that the sun will kill a baby, but if exposed to more than a certain amount, it could be harmful to the child. So also music… depending on the genre and volume, what a regular person may consider soothing or relaxing may actually be more than a child can handle.
Lullabies are often sung by parents in calming children, putting to sleep, or simply spending time with them. The simple lyrics, nature, and storyline of lullabies are usually intended for children, and are therefore suitable for them. A parent can rock a child to sleep with a lull-a-bye, calm a discontented child, or sing along with a playing child.

"The Sanskrit term “Gayatri Mantra” denotes the guaranteed protection to those who think of it, sound it by uttering and meditate upon it. It is in essence; a mystical metrical composition of rhythmic syllables intended to produce an order of sound or tune, consistently with the invocatory process of incantation enshrined in it. The order of sound and its repetition has a primary and a greater value than the actual meaning of the ideas in it. Gayatri is only the name of meter in which many of the Rig Vedic Mantras are couched. A part from the popular Brahma Mantra or; Savitaa Gayatri’ here are some excellent collections; some of them are rare, excelling in their efficacy and potency; in the display of extra-ordinary mystic and miraculous powers. P.S. Raghuraman, K.Maloakannan, P.Jagadeesa Bhatt, K.Sivarajan, and a host of others have recited these in a traditional manner with the academic touch under the guidance of Dr.R.Thiagarajan with the help of the Music Director Mr.V.R.Manikkavinayagam.
This DVD contains the gayatri mantra of various deities viz, Ajapa, Ganapathi, Shanmukha, Saastha, Rudra, Vishnu, Lakshmi, Hayagriva, Varahi, Narasimha, Sita Rama Lakshman, Radha Krishna, Srinivasa, Brahma, Hamsa, Durga Neela Dakshinamurthy Dhara Devi Aghora Ghora Kaali Buhvaneswari Nandi Sundarshana, Vishvakesena Garuda, Anjaneya, Sarabha Mantra, Tantra Yantra Indrakshi Sankha, Navagrahas Kameswari Bhagamalini, Nithyakalina, Bherunda, Vanhivasini, Vajreswari, Shivadooti, Twaritaa, Kulasundari, Nitya, Neelapataaka, Vijaya, Sarvamangala, Jvaalamaalini Chitra, Saraswathi Gowri Mahadurga, Deepadurga Shiva , Parvati, Hari Vamaana, Shrada, Shakti, Chandeswara Bilva, Indra, Parasurama sheela, Bhairva, Vrushaba,Kaala, Panchabhuta, Shanka Gopala, Narayana, Dattatreya, Chandi Paramahamsa, Thulasi, Annapoorna, Tirupurasundari Chinnamastha Dhoomavathi Bagalaamukhi Maatangi, Mahishasura mardhini, Jayadurga, Soolini, Chandesha, baalatriupura, Shuaamala, Kaartaveerya, Shiva, Saptamthrukaas, Mahamaari, Vaaghobhava, Amriteswari, Pranva, Danti Kamadhenu, Lokapaalas and so on.

"Everyone in this world wants their children to be brought up in an environment, conductive to their physical and mental health. Of course, when the minds of the children are tuned towards the spiritual songs, their thought, attitude, Behavior, character, speech and in short their way of life is transformed and their personality is enhanced. The brain of children being tuned by the Sanskrit pronunciation becomes free from viruses and gains power. Never the less such children would be the better citizens with skill, efficiency and moral courage and shine as scientists and so on. These may look like tall claims. But our ancestors knew the efficacy of teaching slokas and hence they had followed an unwritten custom. The faith in our ancestors and their custom would no doubt prove fruitful. For the value of this training, the children will thank the parents when they grow old.

"Man becomes divine by constantly contemplating on the divine qualities of the divine beings. Eulogies on the extraordinary divine characters are to rejuvenate the innate powers that every body possesses. Chanting of the Stotras or even just hearing, they bestow prosperity of all kinds and peace of mind. Hanuman Chalisa (Hindi) pf the celebrated devotee Sri Go swami Tulasidas, and other select Stotras in Sanskrit on Chiranjivi ( the ever living god) are unique in as much as they are vibrant to establish divine connections and in granting the desired objects. Hanuman is the embodiment of knowledge of all kinds and especially in Grammar. He is tribute by his mentor God Sri Rama as one pas excellent in the art of speech. Contemplation on the divine qualities and recitation or listening of stotras on him is to imbibe his divine qualities apart from obtaining intellect, strength, fame, courage, fearlessness, and power of speech and prosperity.

"Gayathri is said to be the Mother of the Vedas. She is the powerful Almighty. The infinite creative mother, Principle of the Supreme Divine that pervades all existences. Microcosmic and macrocosmic and supports the functioning of indri as (Instruments of volition thought, action and experience.) Inner as well as outer. She is the infinite source, blissful and effulgent, of Love, Life and Truth and has the infallible power of Perfection. The Chanting of Gayathri Mantra is popular and is the effective mode of drawing her source of energy. So also, the hearing of the thousand epithets of her not only gives a vivid picture of her powers but also purifying, ennobling and exalting the listeners. It transforms and develops the listener from mortal weakness to immortal power and strength from emasculating thralldom to eternal life enriching freedom from stunting limitations to infinite divine progress. She is alone worshipped in different names as Savitri when she is identified with the powers she showers at different cycles of time as Brahdarnayakaopanishad puts it.

The Divine Mother of the Universe. Lalitha once gave audience to all the gods. To worship her came crores of Brahmas (creators) and Brahmins (consorts of the creators), and crores of Narayanas with their Lakshmis and crores of Rudras with their Gauris. The different Shaft is who came to do Lalitha reverence were also innumerable, as were the Devas and Siddhas. When they had all worshipped her, they took their seats, upon which Sri Devi Lalitha glances meaningfully Vashini and others, the goddesses of speech. There upon they began to sing the thousand names of Lalitha, composed by them earlier. At her, express command. While Devi Lalitha became glad upon hearing the hymn, all those who were assembled there were amazed as its exquisite beauty and puissance. ”Declare these thousand names to my devotees. If a devotee recites it even one, I grant him all his desired”, Devi Lalitha told then. The above details are conveyed by lord Havagriva; the horse-faced manifestation of Lord Vishnu worshipped as the embodiment of intelligence, to the sage agastya, one of the most revered figures in Hindu lord. The passage occurs in the preface to the Lalitha Sahasranama, a great masterpiece that finds pride of place in the second part of the Brahmanda purana. (The Puranas are sacred texts, which explain the Vedic doctrines, the fountainhead of Hindu Philosophy, to lay minds). Takes as a devotional hymn, the Lalitha sahasranama is a wonderful track in which deep feeling is expressed in sublime language. The sonorous alliterations and assonances, and the beautiful cadences create an incantatory effect. Unlike other hymns of thousand names, the Lalitha Sahasranamam is free from meaningless particles and words, and also from the fault of repetition. The hymn, in its straight- forward significance, invokes the celestial qualities of the goddess and builds and ambience of majesty, beauty, power and sanctity.
"Pranayama, the science of controlled, conscious expansion of Prana (the life force) is the fourth limb of classical Yoga. The art and science of Pranayama has immense therapeutic potential in a wide range of psychosomatic disorders such as diabetes, hypertension and asthma. It can be used either as a monotherapy or in combination with Asanas and other aspects of Yoga. Pranayama is of vital importance to any sincere yoga practitioner trying to achieve the state of Yoga. Unless the mind is controlled, the higher aspects of yoga are not possible and the best and only way to really control the mind is by regular, dedicated and determined practice of Pranayama with awareness, consciousness and purity of thought, word and deed.

The Lord in the manifestation of Satyanarayana holds a club, a conch shell, a discuss and a lotus in his four hands. He covers the universe in three strides: the earth as fire, the atmosphere as lightning, and the sky as the sun. He is extremely gentle of nature and personality thus symbolizing tolerance and patience. His vehicle is Garuda and consort is Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and beauty Lakshmi symbolizes good fortune and wealth and is the favorite of merchants and traders. Together Vishnu and Lakshmi are a popular duo, worshipped by families seeking material welfare. This Pooja can be performed on any day for any occasion.

"The yogic art and science of Mudra is a means of non-verbal communication that is subtle and refined. It enables us to communicate interpersonally with our inner self, interpersonally with others and transpersonally with the Divine. This presentation showcases important Yogic Mudras that can be done using the whole body as well as the head, neck and face. Different Mudras are used in various Hatha Yoga sequences and Kriyas to conserve and enhance the energy flow in the body as well as help attain a state of meditation in action. Concentration is improved and the mind settles into the body better when such Mudras are used. It also adds to the inherent benefit of the Asana or the Kriya. Important Yogic gestures of the head; neck and face are depicted with marvelous visuals of an international group performing the Brahma Mudra being the highlight.
Various Mudras of the Hatha Yoga tradition are demonstrated with detailed explanation of the methods and benefits of each Mudra. Mudras “gesture” the energy necessary and “seal” that otherwise intangible and illusive moment, fixing it for all time in our heart and nerves, bones and blood, mind and body, soul and thought – creating a solid foundation upon which to build a spectacular healthy, happy and spiritual life. The Mudra “seals” into our very cells that call to a Higher Life, which can never again be denied!
"

"Dhyana or Meditation is a higher state of Yoga that may be attained only after the practitioner has prepared themselves in a step-by-step manner. Meditation is a way to unite with our Supreme Nature and may be described as ‘fixing the mind on the Supreme with devotion and discipline’. It is the seventh of the eight steps in the Ashtanga Yoga of Patanjali and is part of the Antaranga or inner steps of Yoga. Meditation is a transcendental state, where if there is awareness, it is “awareness of awareness itself”, a state beyond the mind. Meditation is the fruit of long and arduous effort. The mind is so trained in its focus that it naturally flows into the object of contemplation. A deep, vibrant quietness is the characteristic of meditation, which infuses the entire life style with calmness and control. Meditation becomes a quality of mind that manifests in all aspects of our daily life. The mind develops the capacity to delve into every experience, thought, emotion and situation that arises, and this focused awareness produces Yogic skill in living.

"Mahabharata is the largest epic in the history of humankind, as it runs to over a hundred thousand verses. It is more than simply a story of kings and princes, sages and wise men, demons and gods. It aims at elucidating the four goals of life: dharma (righteousness), artha (wealth), Kama (pleasure), and month (liberation).
Mahabharata mainly tells the story of the Pandavas and the Kauravas who vie with each other for the kingdom of Hastinapura, The Pandavas want to play the game straight and are prepared to accommodate the Kauravas, but the Kauravas under the leadership of Duryodhana want to destroy the Pandavas, Shantanu, the king of Hastinapura has a short-lived marriage with the goddess Ganaga and has a son, Devavrata (later to be called Bhishma), who becomes the heir apparent.
Many years later, when the king goes hunting, he sees Satyavati, daughter of a fisherman in the kingdom and asks her hand in marriage. She marries the king, as Devarata promises to make her son the future king.
Shantanu has two sons by Satyavati, Chitrangada and Vichitravirya. Their sons are Pandu and Dhritharashtra. Pandu becomes the king because of Dhirtarashtra’s blindness. Pandu marries Kunti and Madri. Pandu’s elder queen gives birth to three sons Yudhishtra, Bhima, and Arjuna as the sons of the gods, and to Nakula and Sahadeva.
Against them are ranged the hundred sons of Dhritarashtra, led by Duryodhana. Karna the first born son of Kunti to the sun god, and discarded by her at birth, is on the side of the Kauravas.
In Mahabharata, love, hate, loyalty, arrogance, wisdom, thirst for knowledge, will power, cunning, self-control, weakness and many other human qualities come into beautiful play. The birth of the princes, their education and their rivalry is narrated beautifully in this video with exclusive animation and rich content.

"The Mahabharata is the national epic of India and has the status of the fifth Veda. A vast work of legends, ethics and philosophy, the Mahabharata has the Kurukshetra war as its kernel. According to scholars, the Kurukshetra war took place 5000 years back in the Indian subcontinent.
This part tells about the youth and marriage of the Pandavas the pivotal “game of dice”, the turning point in the Mahabharata. As the Pandavas lose their kingdom and respect through the game of dice played by the otherwise wise Dharmaputra, it is an object lesson to gamblers. The part shows the great generosity of Karna, Duryodhana’s great friend. We see Indra diminish the power of Karna by begging for his natural armour and earrings. Find out in this part how Draupadi came to be the wife of the five Pandava brothers. The occasion of the inauguration of the great palace of the Pandavas leads to unwitting insults to Duryodhana, who hatches the plot of deprive the Pandavas of their kingdom. Beautifully narrated with excellent dialogues, this part of Mahabharata is the one, which will always be chirshed, by one and all.
"
"Mahabharata, the greatest epic of Indian mythology, is a great treasure of Indian and its tradition. The rivalry between cousins, the poignant turns that it takes exposition of ethics and the rewards of righteousness are beautifully portrayed in the Mahabharata.
This part of the Mahabharata deals with the period of exile of the Pandavas. After the humiliating game of dice, the crestfallen Pandavas leave the palace of Hastinapur. The Pandavas along with Draupadi reach a forest.
Lord Surya gives a magic vessel to the Pandavas, from which they get unlimited food. Arjuna leaves for Indrakiladri hill to get weapons from Lord Shiva. After testing Arjuna, Lord Shiva gives him powerful weapons. Egged on by Duryodhana, Karna poses as a Brahmin and learns great mantras from guru Parasurama. When the latter comes to know of Karna’s true identity, he curses him.
Krishna teaches Arjuna a lesson in humility by demonstrating to him the generosity of Karna. Krishna also saves Draupadi form Durvasa’s curse. Bhima kills the demon Jarasandha, Duryodhana is saved by Arjuna from the attack of the gandharvas. In the famous episode of the Yaksha, Yudhishtra’s moral stature brings back his dead brothers to life.
This is a great chapter of the Mahabharata with thrilling twists and turns. It teaches us that duty comes first… rewards follow on their own accord.
"
"This part of Mahabharata explains about the last year of exile of the Pandavas. After the completion of 12 years of exile in the forest, in the thirteenth year, they had to live by concealing their true identity. This phase is called the Virata Parva, as they stayed in the kingdom of Virata.
Yudhishtra adopted the garb of a himself. Arjuna passed himself off as a eunuch. Yudhishtra became king Virata’s companion and spent his days playing dice with him. Bhima worked as the chief cook. Arjuna assumed the name of Brihannala and taught dance and music to princess Uttara. Nakula looked after the horses and Sahadeva tended to the cows and bulls.
The princess Draupadi served Virata’s queen, Sudeshna. Bhima kills Keechaka, the brother of the queen, for attempting to molest Draupadi. News reaches Duryodhana and he finds out about the whereabouts of the Pandavas.
Duryodhana’s forces battle the army of King Virata. At the end, the Pandavas reveal their identity. They return and ask for the kingdom. But Duryodhana refuses to give them even an inch of territory.
War proves to be the only course. Krishna gives his army to Duryodhana and becomes a charioteer to Arjuna. Kunti approaches her eldest son Karna and requests him to join the Pandavas. He declines the proposal but grants her the boon of not attacking Arjuna twice with his lethal arrows.

"This is the most important part of Mahabharata. The great Kurukshetra war between the Pandavas and the Kauravas, the Bhagavad-Gita given by Lord Krishna, the final moments of Bhishma and Karna, and Krishna revealing his awesome divine form are found in this part. Every moment of Mahabharata will thrill and elevate you.
The 18 days of war is explained clearly with a beautiful story line. The death of Bhishma, Drona, Karna, Abhimanyu, Duryodhana, the bravery of Karna, Arjuna, Ghatothkacha, Shikandi’s revenge, the great plots of the war including that of Chakravyuha, the killing of Ashwattama are depicted here beautifully.
The aftermath of the war and the end of the Pandavas reveals clearly that time and tide catch up with all men, but only those elevated morally make life worth livening.

"The Pandavas are the true heroes of Indian mythology. These super heroes are the mind-born sons of gods like Indra, Yama and Surya. But they learnt their skills of warfare through hard work, sincerity, devotion, truthfulness and courage.
Pandu was the king of Hastinapur and his brother Dhritharashtra was blind. Pandu’s wife was Kunti and through a boon, she was able to get children by invoking the Gods. The five mind-born sons are called “Pandavas”. Dhritharashtra had a hundred sons (called Kauravas). The eldest one was Duryodhana.
Drona, the greatest archer becomes the teacher of these princes and it is an interesting turning point. The Kauravas hated the Pandavas right from the start. Many instances show the hatred and jealousy of the Kauravas. Once Bhima was attacked and thrown into a pond but he was saved by the queen of snakes.
Competition between the princes in warfare and archery adds spice to the story. Arjuna was the favorite student of Drona, and we learn why. Ekalavya, a hunter boy, becomes a self-taught archer but ends up giving his right thumb as a fee to Drona.
The story of Bala Pandvas brings to light the innocence, humility, anger, jealousy, valour and courage of the cousins of the great dynasty. The qualities that they showed as children came to the fore when they grew up. This part of the Mahabharata is rife with emotions and deep lessons for life.

Mangal Pandey was a solider in the 34th Regiment of the Bengal Native Infantry of the English East India Company. Pandey was born in the village of Nagwa in district Ballia (Uttar Pradesh).

"Thai cuisine is known for its intricate balancing act of five fundamental flavors - hot, sour, sweet,, salty, and bitter. Thai food tends to be full of fresh herbs, spices, chilies, and a wonderful array of fruits and vegetables. Coconut milk plays a major part in a multitude of Thai curries, and the aromatic flavors of lemongrass, chili, lime, galangal, and a plethora of herbs permeate the cuisine.
Thais were very adapting at ‘Siamese-icing’ foreign cooking methods, and substituting ingredients. The ghee used in Indian cooking was replaced by coconut oil, and coconut milk substituted for other daily products. Overpowering pure spices were toned down and enhanced by fresh herbs such as lemon grass and galangal. Eventually, fewer and less spices were used in Thai curries, while the use of fresh herbs increased. It is generally acknowledged that Thai curries burn intensely, but briefly, whereas other curries, with strong spices, burn for longer periods. Instead of serving dishes in courses, a Thai meal is served all at once, permitting dinners to enjoy complementary combinations of different tastes.
A proper Thai meal should consist of a soup, a curry dish with condiments, a dip with accompanying vegetables. A spiced salad may replace the curry dish. The soup can also be spicy, but the curry should be replaced by non-spiced items. There must be a harmony of tastes and textures within individual dishes and the entire meal.

"Religion and music have always had an integrally close relationship with each other. As the world’s fourth largest religion, Buddhism is no exception; except the way it has intertwined with music is somewhat different to the relationship music has with Christianity, Islam or Hinduism. Buddhism is unique in that it does not consider chanting to be prayer.
Chanting cleanses the mind like water cleanses the body. When you chant Buddhist mantras, you are not asking someone to save you from evil nor are you hoping to be given a place in heaven after death. Instead, through chanting you can learn, teach, philosophize or re-memorize the discourse.
This DVD contains Buddhist chants recited by monks in monasteries in Thailand and India. It also contains a short history of the origin of some important chants, an interview with a monk and helps give a deeper understanding of Buddhist chants. Through this DVD, you will learn several important chants which are the first steps to meditation. They focus on a simple phrase and melody and repeat it over and over. The repetition relaxes the mind, and the body thus becomes ready to meditate.
The aim of Buddhist chanting and meditation is to clean the mind of defilement and disturbances, to gain insight (Vipassana) which leads to the understanding of the true nature of things. The essential features are mindfulness and awareness, which you will discover by practicing chanting with this DVD.

"The Hindustani Music that developed during the Moghul 15th and 16th century AD is based on the rich Indian tradition. Amir Khusro was a scholar poet and musicologist of rare talent in the court of Allauddin Khilji 13th century AD is credited with the introduction of new forms and styles in Hindustani music, which are still in practice today. Hindustani music is based on the raga system. Raag is the intricate system of scales and associated melodic patterns. In their numerical ratios, the scales and melodic patterns correspond with moods, colors, seasons and hours of day and night. This time theory, which governs the raags, is a unique feature of Hindustani music. The main architect of the existing system of Hindustani music was Pandit V N Bhatkhande who was responsible for the classification of the Ragas into the 10 that’s. An important landmark in Hindustani music was the establishment of gharanas under the patronage of princely states. A gharana is more a school of thought than an institution. Each of the gharanas developed distings facets and styles of presentation and performance.
A Hindustani musician by professiona, Dr.Ramdesh pande is a renowned vocalist of new generation and an artist of commendable talent. Shri Chepe Shri Panake and Pt. Prabhakar Deshkar initiated dr.Ramdeshpande in classical music. Later he was fortunate to receive guidance from Pt.Yashwant Bua Joshi and Pt. Ulhas Kashalkar of Gwalior and jaipur Gharanas. He has also received tutelage from Pt.Babanrao Haldankar of Agra Gharana and Pt.Yeshwant Mahale of Bhatkhande parampara. Dr.ramdeshpande has excelled academically with post graduate degree in music from Nagpur University with gold medal. He is an A Graded artist of Akashwani and Doordarshan and has performed several prestigious musical platforms in India and all over the world.

Kadri Gopalnath is a somewhat atypical figure on the Indian classical music scene on account of his choice of instrument the also sax, an instrument he began playing as a child and that he has bent to the needs of the needs of the raga in a series of brilliant left-field interpretations. It’s a choice that runs decidedly counter to the musical culture Gopalnath grew up in where his adherence to strict canons albeit with their own internal evolution, has permitted the preservation of a thousand years old tradition. Yet thanks to his passion and ability Kadri Gopalnath has managed to insert a typically western instrument to the flow of south Indian classical music, bringing out its resources and nuances in all altogether different light.

Adi Sankara, Ramanuja and Madhava have commented on this Upanishad and commended its Scientific method of explanation. Sureshvara wrote a vartika (a gloss on Sankara’s commentary) there are two recessions of the Satapatha Brahmana, the Kanva and Madhyandina. Sankara followed the Kanva recessions."
"The Upanishads are the perennial source of spiritual knowledge. The word Upanishad means secret and sacred knowledge. Brahadaranyaka Upanishad is the most important of the Upanishads. The Upanishad conveys the ultimate message as Aham Brahmasri- I am Brahman:
“Atmetyevopasita – worship Atman as Brahman: Athata aadeso neti neti-Therefore, the instruction is not this, not this. When everything is negated, what remains the desideratum is Brahman. This Upanishad is considered the last word on Advaita. It also contains the famous Maiteyi Brahmana, which is the dialogue between Yajnavalkya and his philosopher wife Maiteyi who demanded that her husband indicate to her the means of Self-realization. “Atma va are drashtavyo srotavyo” etc.

Kadri Gopalnath is a somewhat atypical figure on the Indian classical music scene on account of his choice of instrument the also sax, an instrument he began playing as a child and that he has bent to the needs of the needs of the raga in a series of brilliant left-field interpretations. It’s a choice that runs decidedly counter to the musical culture Gopalnath grew up in where his adherence to strict canons albeit with their own internal evolution, has permitted the preservation of a thousand years old tradition. Yet thanks to his passion and ability, Kadri Gopalnath has managed to insert a typically western instrument to the flow of south Indian classical music, bringing out its resources and nuances in all altogether different light.

"The Divine Mother of the Universe, Lalitha, once gave audience to all the gods. To worship her came crores of Brahmas (creators) and Brahmin’s (consorts of the creators), and crores of Narayanas with their Lakshmis and crores of Rural with their Gaur is. The different Shaktis who came to do Lalitha reverence were also innumerable, as were the Devas and Siddhas.
When they had all worshipped her, they took their seats, upon which, Sri Devi Lalitha, glanced meaningfully Vashini and others, the goddess of speech. There upon they began to sing the thousand names of Lalitha, composed by them earlier, at her express command.
While Devi Lalitha became glad upon hearing the hymn, all those who were assembled there were amazed at its exquisite beauty and puissance. “Declare these thousand names to my devotees. It a devotee recites it even once, I grant him all his desires,” Devi Lalitha told them.
The above details are conveyed by Lord Havagriva, the horse-faced manifestation of Lord Vishnu worshipped as the embodiment of intelligence, to the Sage Agastya, one of the most revered figures in Hindu lord. The passage occurs in the preface to the Lalitha Sahasranama, a great masterpiece that finds pride of place in the second part of the Brahmanda Purana. (The Puranas are sacred texts, which explain the Vedic doctrines, the fountainhead of Hindu philosophy, to lay minds).
Taken as a devotional hymn, the Lalitha Sahasranama is a wonderful track in which deep feeling is expressed in sublime language. The sonorous alliterations and assonances, and the beautiful cadences create an incantatory effect. Unlike other hymns of thousand names, the Lalitha Sahasranama is free from meaningless particles and words, and also from the fault of repetition. The hymn, in its straightforward significance invokes the celestial qualities of the goddess, and builds an ambience of majesty, beauty, power and sanctity.

"The vibrations of sound formulas of the Vedas work through the chakras to increase the flow of beneficial energy throughout the subtle body where these latencies and tendencies are stored. Mantra therapy starts by increasing the total amount of energy available for all our activities. Certain mantras used singly or in combination can greatly accelerate the quality and quality of energy used in the healing process. It guards the World against all ills. Our ancestors devised remarkable methods of chanting to protect the original form, their tonal and verbal purity against change and distortion. They laid down rules to make sure tat not a syllable was changed in chanting, not a swara was altered and ensured that the full benefits were derived from intoning the mantras. According the this the words of a mantra are braided together in different atterns like “Vakya”, “pada”, “karma”, “jala”, “mala”, “sikha”, “rekha”, “Ghana”. The intonation of a few words of a mantra is joined to the second the second to the third, the third to the fourth and so on, until we come to the final word “karma to ca caurgunam. This karma chanting bestows four times the effect of normal chanting of the Mantra.
Hence, this compact disc presents “Rudram” a popular and effective Vedic portion extolling the greatness of Siva, chanted to ward off evils, sins etc and to gain security and strength. This Rudram is chanted in the Krama format, by the traditional Pandit, Thanjavur Brahmasri S.Radhakrishna Sastrigal.

"The Devi Mahatmiyam is an esoteric Epic, a great spiritual occult text and a Mantra – Sastra. It is a part of the Markandeya Purana. The Devi Mahatmiyam signifies the march of the human soul to its destination. Three stages of transformation of the spiritual being of the aspiring sour are described in the three sections of the Devi Mahatmiyam through the anecdotes- Adi-Sakthi as Maha Kali awakening Maha Vishnu in order to destroy the original demonical forces., Madhu and Kaitabha, the same Shankthi manifesting as Maha Lakshmi and overcoming Mahishasura and Raktbija, and as Maha Saraswathi destroying Sumbha and Nisumbha. These three presiding forces are representative of the powers of the spirit within manifesting as themselves in an upward ascent towards ultimate God realization, which is described in the Devi Mahatmiyam. Thus, the dance of the cosmic spirit in its supernal effort at self transcendence, is majestically described in the beautifully worded sonorous songs of the Devi Mahatmiyam, where we are given s stirring account, a stimulating description of what Maha Kali did, what Maha Lakshmi did and Maha Saraswathi did in bringing about this evolution and transformation.
The Devi Mahamiyam is recited for averting calamities in life Catastrophies, tensions. When there is war treating a country, for example, or pestilence of epidemic everywhere, Or any internal tension or anxiety of any kind, the Devi Mahatmiyam is recited and it is a very potent remedy prescribed by seers of yore, not only for temporal terrestrial Prosperity, but also for the glory of the hereafter, for illumination, for the destruction of ignorance and to be a fit recipient of the grace of the Almighty.
The chosen and the effective prayer portions of the Devi Mahatmiyam have been recited by Thanjavur.S.Radhakrishna Sastrigal, the hearing of which fetches the desired divine fruit.

As tiny beings, babies require quite a few things the average human would need, but in smaller portions or in different wavelengths. For instance, sunlight…. It’s not that the sun will kill a baby, but if exposed to more than a certain amount, it could be harmful to the child. So also music… depending on the genre and volume, what a regular person may consider soothing or relaxing may actually be more than a child can handle.
Lullabies are often sung by parents in calming children, putting to sleep, or simply spending time with them. The simple lyrics, nature, and storyline of lullabies are usually intended for children, and are therefore suitable for them. A parent can rock a child to sleep with a lull-a-bye, calm a discontented child, or sing along with a playing child.

(Loasely translated, that’s melody rhythmic variation and depth of feeling.) She was on of a select triad of female vocalist the pushed the envelope in a male-dominated culture, not only earning the right to perform on concert stages instead of only at private parties, but also being allowed to develop and demonstrate the ability to perform extended serious pieces from a variety of classical disciplines.

"The hymn of Saundarayalahari contains 100 poems (verses) of four lines each said to be written by jagadguru Shri Adi Shankaracharaya (8th Century Indian Philosopher). Legend of this work is often substantiated by the distinct difference that is present in the two sets of poems “Anandalahari”. The waves of bliss (verses 1 to 42) and “Saundarayalahari” – The waves of beauty (verses 43 to 100) the complete set is known as Saundarayalahari. Anandalahari deals with the Mantra, Yantra and Tantra practices of Shaktha cult. The Shaktha system is a system of rituals accompanied by Meditation based on Advaita philosophy. Shaktha sect worships Devi through rituals and meditation and is based on a non-dual interpretation of reality. These verses are on a metaphysical plane, describing the philosophical & spiritual aspects of Shakthi worship. A notable feature of this set of verses is that the verses are not interlinked in anyway, they stand apart. The language is also highly transcendental in nature.
Saundaryalahari, the second part, is a description of the Supreme Mother from crown to feet, as a description of the vision the Shri Adi Shankaracharya experienced. These verses are said to be written by Shri Shankaracharaya himself. He made generous us of figures of speech of Sanskrit poetcs. However, the term “Saundaryalahari” is now commonly applied to the entire hundred verses.

The Navagraha Pooja is important as the planets are considered to play a major role in deciding the destiny of man. All the nine grahas (planets) have the vital role to give us Pleasure or pain in life. In astrology, great importance is placed on the positions of the “Navagraha” in the twelve constellations of the zodiac, their planetary movements and their effect on human beings. A particular “graham” are said to remove the ill effects. Lord Surya was worshipped by Lord Rama before the war against Ravana. His grace is believed to lead to power, position, good health and so on. Chandra’s grace is required for the health of mind and consequently the body. The “Rasi” in a horoscope is decided by the position of the moon, just as the “Lagna” is ruled by the Sun. Lord Angaraka, is the moulder of leaders of countries. He graces those who stand up for truth. Lord Buddha is the giver of Wisdom. He imparts knowledge and beauty, prayers to Lord Guru can alleviate the suffering brought about by adverse positioning of any of “Grahas”. Guru is the Lord of the Devas associates with wisdom, Vedanta jnana, and purity of thought, word and deed. Fortunate beings are those with Lord Sukra strong in their horoscope. Sukra is proficient in all the Sastras. He can even bring the dead back to life. Sanaischara is a beneficient “graham” Any adverse effect is due to placement in an individual horoscope which could overcome by worshipping him. Rahu and Kethu, also do a let good.

The Ramayana contains the mystic syllables. It is an expository of Vedic Mantras. It is also studded with the letters of Gayathri mantra and many other incantations. The reading of certain sargas or cantos in Sundara and yuddhakaanda has been carried on form the days of yore for some specific advantage and relief apart from the mental solace one gets after listening or reading it. The select and the most efficacious portions in the whole of Ramayana are Anguliya Pradaana sarga (Sundara Kaanda- 36th canto) Sarvakaarya Siddhi sera (Sundarakaanda -41st canto) and Sri Ramapattabhisheka Sarga (Yuddha Kaanda -131st canto). Hence, in this C.D these sargas are devotionally recited by the traditional Pandit Thanjavur S.Radhakrishna Sasthrigal.
The Uma samhita, Skanda and a few other Purina’s praise highly of the efficacy of the repeated reading of the Ramayana, and the former text confirms that the reading even the Diseases which defy treatment will be cured. Longevity will result there form. Enmity from every quarter will vanish. Family problems will cease. Fear of premature death will disappear. Debts will be liquidated. All undertakings will be successful. Extraordinary powers would descend. And Sri Rama will shower his mercy and kindness. According to the pattabisheka sarga recited in this, the man who reads or hears is freed from sin; he is blessed with children; conquers the earth and dominates his enemies; Women give birth to long lived sons; the read gets long life; overcomes all trials and tribulation; reunited form the separated partners; and gets the desired boons.

"The Bhagavad-Gita is a book on self-discovery and journey into the Abode of God. It helps one move from sorrow driven mortal existence to eternal and blissful life. Desire is a central to all human activity. By eliminating the desires, but by not abandoning the actions, one can free oneself from the bondage caused by the desire driven actions. Such an approach not only liberates us from all struggling and striving, but also reduces greatly our inner anxieties and frustrations, creating in the process a permanent basis for a stable, intelligent and peaceful life. According to the Bhagavad-Gita in the external world is unreal not because it does not exist, but because it is unstable and ever changing. Since it is based upon impermanence, it cannot be relied upon as the vehicle of truth and it should not become the purpose of ones existence. He who clings to such an unstable phenomenon is bound to suffer as he is bound to engage himself in desperate actions to retain his unstable possessions and experience constant anxiety, anger, fear, and envy. Therefore, the Bhagavad-Gita searches for a permanent reality that makes life more meaningful, stable, peaceful and purposeful. It discards layer after layer of untruth that surrounds us and reveals the shining self that exists in all of us as the centre of truth and permanence that we should all ultimately discover. It is by understanding the hidden self in us we will ultimately discover the supreme self, that exists in all of us and in whom we all exist. The scripture fundamentally deals with three primary teachings, which are called the three secrets. The first secret is about duty. One must do one duty in Accordance with ones nature. The second is about the hidden self. In every one there is a real and hidden self which is different from the external false self. Everyone must realize this difference between the outer self and the inner self. The third secret is about the omnipresence of God. One must live in this world with the awareness that all that exists in this world is but Vasudeva. These three secrets are known as guhya (secret), guhyatara (more sectet) and guhyatma (most secret). The second third fourth fifth and eighteenth Chapters deal with the first secret. The second, sixth, thirteenth to eighteenth chapters deal with the second secret. The third, seventh, eight, ninth, tenth to eighteenth chapters deal with the third secret. Each verse and every chapter in it is loaded with multiple meanings, enabling each to understand it and interpret it in his own way. When we feel that we have understood it all can safely to elsewhere for inspiration, a particular verse or a chapter again starts bothering us with its new wisdom or a perplexing insight. That is why today we have so many interpretations of the Bhagavad-Gita form various scholars.
Each verse is considered to be a very sacred mantra. The seed mantra of this scripture is said to be the 11th verse in chapter 11. The Shakti mantra of this scripture, because of which it is endowed with the divine blessings and able to exert influence on the humankind for centuries, is said to be the 66th verse in chapter 18.

"Asvamedha Sacrifice is held high and was termed as the Universal lord of Sacrifices. This is performed by the unrivalled paramount sovereign called Sarvabhauma. It is recorded that one who performs the Asvamedha conquers all the quarters; conquers the world; He attains everything he desires. It is the expiation of all sins; it is the medicine of all i.e., Universal Panacea. He acquires all Kingdoms, ‘exorbitant wealth and the highest status. As, this sacrifice involves heavy expenditure and enormous paraphernalia ordinary persons cannot perform this.
However, it is believed that ‘heaving the mantras chanted from the Asvamedha chapters of the Veda bestows all the powers that would accrue for a performer. Hence, to make the listeners prosper ever and ever, Mantras form the Asvamedha Prakarana of the Sukla Yajurveda(Kanva Sakha) are chanted in a rare svara set by the Sage Yajnavalkya the pioneering priest in the performance of yagas. The Kanva Rendition is rare and for the first time. Some glimpses of the rendering of this rendition has been brought out and also preserved for prosterity, in the compact disc format for the sake of our listeners!

The Divine power is unlimited. Yet, the combat between the demonic forces exist in the Universe from the time immemorial. Each force is powerful and devours the other.

But, the powers enormously held by Narasimha were not exhausted and as a result he started destroying all creations. When no power could meet out Narasimha, Lord Shiva incarnated as Sarabha a combination of a terrific animal, a bird and a man, with sharp nails, teeth, two wings, eight legs etc and brought Narasimha under control. Sarabha’s two wings are represented as his wives Pratyangra and Saalini, tow shakiti’s who assisted him to stultify Narasimha.

The Mridangam is a double-sided drum. The body of the instrument is made of one piece of wood. Hollow, the body has two opertures of different size, one very small, that will generate high-pitched sounds and another, wide, for low-pitched sounds. The walls of the instrument are 2/3 centiments thick and give it stability in the low frequencies. The goatskin, coupled to the high pitch opeture, wears a thick black disk made of flour, ferric oxide powder and starch stuck to its centre to allow the emission of harmonics. The skin coupled to the bas operture is coated in its middle with plain flour paste to give it a perfect tune. The two skins are stretched together with leather strips. The Mridangam is the main rhythm instrument of Carnatic Music- Music with Ghatam.

"When the transcendent absolute desires to manifest out of its own volition, there is a movement, a sitar, a throb. This primordial throb “adya spanda” starts a series of vibrations, which take the form of sound, “nada” which is the precursor of the creation of objects – nitya vak or Aksara. Aksara is represented by the seed symbol ‘AUM/OM’ for; it is the inexpressible fountain source of all the original rhythms of the supreme ether.
The foundation of all the creative sounds of the revealed word, ‘OM’ is the universal formulation of the energy of sound and speech.
Other seed sounds out of whose stuff, words of speech are woven are supposed to be the developed evolutions of ’OM’ ‘OM’ contains and sums up, synthesizes and releases, all the spiritual power and all the potentiality of ‘vak and sabda’ of all these sounds. All words and thoughts are an out flowering of the great ‘OM-‘OM’ the word, the Eternal, manifest in the form of sensible objects, manifest in that consicent powers of the Infinite. ‘OM’ is the sovereign source; seed sound ‘OM’ is the sound symbol that is use before every other ‘Manthre’. Om should lead towards the opening of the consciousness to the sight and feeling of the one, consciousness in all material things, in the inner being and in the supra-physical worlds, in the casual plane, above now super conscient to us and finally the supreme liberated transcendence above all cosmic existence.
Could there be a more simple seed sound than ‘OM’ for the meditation for human beings in this jet-set material life.

Music is the panacea and not merely a palliative for all the stress. It is the most non-violent form of therapy-no medicines, no surgery. It provides the support and sustenance of all plentitudes. It enables one to plunge into their heart and contemplate inwardly. Vibration created by music moves the whole the whole mechanism; the muscle, blood circulation and nervous system.

"There is Sanskrit saying “if one sees the Lord of Chidambaram, or If one takes birth at Tiruvarur or If one dies in Kasi , one will surely attain Liberation, but by merely thinking of Arunachala one gets this benefit”OM Nama Sivaya” is believed to be the most sacred and powerful mantra. It is said ‘One’`Arunachaleswaraya namah” has the equal power of chanting to one crore” Om Nama Sivaya” Sri Arunachala (Lord Siva) is the Lord and Master of the universe. The universal spirit ever shining in a blissful glory, the Brahman beyond name and form of fire “jyotir lingam”. Burns all the sins of his creations. Arunachala hill in Tamilnadu is the concrete from of Sri Arunachala, the Universal Lord. It’s that form of God that even our ordinary. For, the Aurnachala Hill itself is the biggest Siva Lingam in the world. (Brahmanda Lingam) This spiritual reality has been experienced and endorsed by many Siddhas. The Supreme Philosophical knowledge can easily be attained by anyone who sees or thinks about the form of this hill.
Aruanchala is the only holy place where the Lord gives eternally his viswaropa darsham. It is the spiritual solution for everyone, irrespective of race, religion or nationality. Arunachala is truly the holy mountain. It is truly Siva himself! Meditation on the divine name or singing the drive names of Arunachala will fetch enormous spiritual powers. The circumambulation of Arunachala hill or chanting his 1000 names Sahasranamavali is said to destroy the Karma of ten million births. No other spiritual pursuit has this kind of power.

"Dattatreya represents all spiritual traditions. As an incarnation of God. Data was born to the sage Atri and Anasuya to spread the universality of true religion. He is the Eternal Spiritual Guide of all mankind. Dattatreya is usually depicted with three heads, symbolising Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, past present and future, and the three states of consciousness- waking dreaming and dreamless sleep. Around him are four dogs that symbolise the four Vedas.
The Saandilya Upanishad states, “The Supreme Brahman performed penance and desiring to become many, assumed the form of Dattatreya. From that, form came out the three letters AUM; the three mystical names Bhuh, Bhuvah and Svah; the three-linded Gayatri; the three Vedas Rig. Yajur and Sama; the three Gods Brahma Vishnu and Maheswara etc”. The name “Datta” signifies selfless sacrifice. The Dattatreya Upanishad explains this. “Not by action, not by progeny, nor even by self, but by renunciation (tyaaga) alone is immortality attained. “Real renunciation is the giving up of “I” and mine, not the mere abandoning of duties. Living a selfless life require giving up one’s ego. As a yiga-avatar, Lord Dattatreya teaches us to perform all our duties skillfully and diligently. Yoga does not require outside aids, nor does it demand great physical effort. All we have to do is change our outlook our mind will be freed from agitation and attain the restful state called “equanimity”. This is the state of Bliss that every soul ultimately aspires to. This is the state of Datta-the ultimate Gift to God.
Such a Divine Guru is prayed for in this Compact Disc by chanting Dattatreya Sahasranama and the Kavacha to secure his grace and guidance thought our life. Dr.R.Thaigarajan, Mrs.Umamaheshwari, Mrs.Usha Viswanath Mrs.Usha Ramachandran Ms.L.V.Vijeta Mr.P.S.Raghuraman, Mr.Sowmyanarayanan have recited them supported by mr.Manikkavinayakam.

"Sages, pleading for those much afflicted with struggles and sorrows, approached Lord Kumara and asked him for the path of permanent happiness, at once Lord Kumara suggested that if one performs the Sankatahara Chaturthi Pooja, done to Lord Vinayaka and follows the Vrata, and his life will be happy and prosperous. This Vrata was suggested by His brother Lord Vinayaka himself as a remedy for his mother Parvati, when despite her severe performed this on the advice of Lord Krishna and conquered the war. Further, Lord Shiva himself undertook the austerity prior to his burning Tripura. Lord Indra desirous of ruling over the three worlds and Lord Hanuman prior to starting his search for Sita performed this Vrata. The emperor Harishchandra also performed this Vrata to keep the people of his empire happy!
It is believed that the practice of this vrata bestows high educational acumen, knowledge wisdom, progeny and a disease free life! The day of performing this Pooja every month is generally notified in the Indian Calendars and almanacs.

"God has never failed to respond to the sincere appeal for help and protection made by men with faith and hope. He gets Himself” “bound” by their devotion and lavishes His grace on them. In this regard, worship of Subrahmanaya is effective, as he possessed the divine nature, super human personality, celibacy, humility, selflessness, devotion, determination, and fearlessness. Hanuman lives in the hearts of people through his Exemplary devotion and surrender to God. Physically he is endowed with unlimited powers. Observing his devotion to Rama, Sita blessed him with immortality (chiranjeev) to help the loyal devotees of Rama.
People believe that he is very much alive on earth and pray to him for courage and confidence, freedom from sorrow, for protection against evil spirits and bad luck. Hanuman is a terror to evil forces. Siva blessed him with enormous divine powers. Nandi taught Hanuman all the Veda and the Scriptural knowledge.

"Only the supreme mother of universe is capable of saving us from misery, and hence we pray and worship her in the from of Lalita. Lalita means “She Who Prays”. Pleased with our worship, she bestows all the blessings of a good life and ultimately grants us liberation. All creation, manifestation and dissolution are considered to be a play of devi or the Goddess Mahatripurasundari. Chanting Sri Lalita Sahasranam daily with devotion is of the utmost value for spiritual growth and material prosperity.
Sri Lalita Sahasranama is an ancient hymn of 1000 names of the Divine Mother. Every name contains very powerful bijaksharas (seed letters) the sound vibrations of which transform both the body and mind. It is said that the Lalita Sahasranama is a stotra par excellence, capable of curing all fevers and diseases, giving all wealth, remedying premature death, bestowing long life and children. For the aspirants chanting the Lalita Sahasranama with faith and love is the royal highway to moksha, liberation!
This powerful stotra is narrated in the Brahmanda Purana, (Uttara Khanda) during the discourse between Havagriva and Agastya as the Secret of Secrets to pleae the Goddess and to derive her grace. Thus, it is a sacred stotra, a beautiful hymn of praise, extolling divine consciousness in the exquisitely lovely form of Lalita Devi, the playful and tender, Divine Mother. It was composed by the eight Vag Devatas, Goddesses of speech, at the command of divine mother herself. Lot of benefits is started in the Purana for chanting Lalita Sahasranama as well as Trisati (300 names of Devi) and a few alone are highlighted above.

"“Mananat –trayte it Mantra” – By the manana (contemplating) of which one is protected is mantra. A Mantra, is so called because it is achieved by the mental process. A mantra is divinity encased within a sound structure. It is divine power manifesting in a sound body. The Mantra is itself Devata.
A Moola Mantra is the combination of Bija Aksharas i.e., seed letters. It is a very powerful Mantra. Every Devata has his or her own Moola Mantra. Repetition of any Moola Mantra is Japa. In this age, practice of Japa is effective and can give eternal prosperity, peace, bliss and immortality. Doing Japa after the dhyanais good. Dhyana is meditation on the front of the Lord. During the performance of japa of a particular deity, the picture of the deity comes before our mind. Therefore japa and Dhyana go together.
Sounds are vibrations, Repetition of a Mantra has a mysterious power of bringing about the manifestation of the Divinity, just as the splitting of an atom manifests the tremendous forces latent in it. When a particular Mantra appropriated to a particular God is properly recited, the vibrations so set up create in the higher planes a special form which that God ensouls for the time being to fulfill the aspirations of the devotees.
In this compact disc some of the important Moola Mantras are recited to facilitate proper diction of pronouncing the mantras. These are recited by Dr.R.Thyagarajan, Prof. of Sanskrit Presidency College, Chennai, along with his team sri.P.Raghuramam and Sri Shanmukha Sundaram supported by Manikkavinayagam, the Music Director.

Surya the Sun God the perceivable Almighty is worshipped from the Vedic days. The lives in the earth survive because of the solar energy. He is the main planet engaging the minds of scientists His auto saving energy ever burning nature, his systematic movement in the orbit and encompassing other plant in his system still remains as the mystery. Our ancestors after through scientific research discovered the effect of his power and his impact over the other planet ands especially in the earth occupied by human and other living beings. Seers symbolized him to be the eye of Brahman. He is the hard Disc storing the knowledge data. His rays have the therapeutic value. In brief the power of the Sun is beyond comprehension and those meditating on him could feel and derive multifarious benefits.
SRI RAMA chanted Adityahrdaya taught by the sage Agastya and attained the power to conquer the enmical forces. Dharmaputra worshipping the sun received the gift of Akshya paatra, the never emptying food vessel. Sun-worship had secured Emperor Satrajit Syamantaka a divine jewel capable of supplying copious gold daily; cured the leprosy of samba the Son of Lord Krishna. Worshipping the Sun Yogisvara Yagnavalkya secured the rare Sukla Yajurveds: Hanuman attained the wisdom and the blind poet Mayura the author of Surya Sataka got his eye sight. Why elaborate, the Sun-god is an indispensable deity especially for human race! ‘Arogyam Bhaskaraditchet’ a good health us desired from the sun. Surya Namskara etc, testily the above facts, listening the Prayers to the Sun God, certainly will establish a favorable contact of mind with the solar Power, which would accomplish the physical and spiritual cravings.

The present day heavy schedule in ever body’s life deprives many normal needs of individuals. In that many needs, sleep is also one among the many and it is the basic requirement for an individual to get along with his daily routines. If we deprive ourselves from sleep for 35 hours continuously the normal function of the brain gets disturbed and the balance is at stake. The level of serotonin is reduced and the relaxing mind also gets feeble. Hence normal sleep of six to eight hours in a day without disturbance is must for every individual. Bur the requirement of sleep hours may vary individually.
Sleep is restorative, during sleep some of the vital substance gets re-synthesized in the nervous system. Any how for the so called normal and for the disturbed individuals, classical music does a wonderful effect on their sleep patterns.

In the Diabetic, the carbohydrate supply of the liver is low, due to deficient storage primarily as a consequence of lack of insulin. Because of that lack, sugar cannot pass from the blood into the liver and other cells that require it; thus blood sugar level is high. The sugar in the form of complex carbohydrate (glycogen), which is released into the blood stream on demand-the demand typically being the action of epinephrine.
Classical music as a refined sound stimulates the “Beta Cell” activity in the organ and ensures normality over a period in all aspects. In emotional situations, blood sugar level is often affected. Classical music helps to present the quality of neurotransmitters-epinephrine in a subtle manner. Music plays a wonderful role in this aspect.

Learning takes place only with memory. Learning is the process of building up memories for future use. Neural basis for retention is termed as “engram”. Memory is the “static residue” of past activity in a neural pathway. Each learning trial involves reactivating the same neural circuit. Eventually, the circuit is in some sense permanently modified, and when it stimulated only partially later, the entire circuit is reactivated.
Music enhances the bio-chemical nature of the memory. The Swaras/notes of the selected ragas are played in such a way to activate the potential chemical agent. The individual memory is the prime satisfying aspect in the therapy. Music as refined sounds gets into the neural circuit to take its own specified neural path. There are a number of chemical substances are involved in the “memory molecule”. The selected ragas given in this album are very special with its effects with regard to its notes/swaras and the way it has been essayed. These ragas help to activate the neural circuit and enhance the concentration of the individual.

Stress is the most imprecise word in the scientific dictionary. The present day heavy schedule of work and other activities extols the individual’s positive mindset.
Stress has become a major buzzword and legitimate concern of the times. Stress is an inevitable part of everyday life for every one of us. Stress is of two types. One is positive the other is negative. Negative stress leads to physiological problems, which in turn leads to psychosomatic problems. Continuous exposure to stress, the individual’s Psychological and physiological resources become depleted; leads to gastrointestinal problems.
Stress either positive or negative music plays a wonderful role in overcoming the same. Ragas with specific notes with its vibration give relief from stress and help maintain freshness of the mind. Listening to music as a habit enhances the quality of some chemicals in the brain neurotransmitters-which are helpful in restoring calm and relaxation. The selected ragas given in this album are very special with its effects with regard to its notes/swaras and the way it has been essayed.

Andal is one of the most extraordinary personalities in religious history. She is known in her native tongue of Tamil as an Alvar, one who is “immersed” in the depths of enjoyment of God, the omnipresent mysterious One, and Andal is one of the best-loved poet-saints of the Tamils. Pious tradition reckons her to be the veritable descent of Bhumi Devi (Mother Earth) in bodily form to show humanity the way to His lotus feet. She is present in all Sri Vanishnava temples, in India and elsewhere, next to her Lord, as she always desired.
Andal is remembered for her poetry, in which she often strikes autobiographical notes about her love for her Lord. She describes herself as a young girl, still not fully mature, pining away for Him. She beseeches her friends, the god of love, and even animals for help in her quest to attain Him. Finally, she describes her good fortune of being the daughter of Vishnucitta, the best of the devout, who lives in Srivilliputtur and adores the Lord.
Her first work is the Tiruppavai, a poem of thirty verses in which Andal imagines herself to be a cowherd girl during the incarnation of Lord Krishna. She yearns to serve Him and achieve happiness not just in this birth, but for all eternity, and describes the religious vow (pavai) that she and her fellow cowgirls will take for this purpose.
Thiruppavai the collection of 30 hymns considered as the necklace among the prabhandams is the yearning for eternal service to god with the total and unconditional surrender to GOD.

The ancient sages of India unlocked the secrets life for humanity. Their wisdom is embodied in the great mantras which they have given us. The greatest of these is the single syllable ‘Om’, which is the first name of God. It is the primal vibration that emanated in the process of creation. Chanting of Om, the queen of all mantras and their source as well, restores the spiritual balance of the individual and brings peace and strength. The ganapati mantra, Krishna Gayatri matra, Lalita Gayatri mantra and Surya Gayatri mantra are again powerful chants that brings success, wisdom, health and prosperity to as paints. Another special feature of this album is a rendering of the tenth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, the Vibhooti yoga in which Lord Krishna speaks of His manifestations in the world. A remarkable array of divine vibrations await you in this excellent album.

The greatest step in the history of mankind was taken by the Vedic seers of India around five thousand years ago. When they pierced through the iron curtain of death shrouding man and experienced immortality and infinitude. Their path-breaking experiences are gathered in the Vedic lore, not as the work of human beings however great, but as the revelations of the Supreme. This rare album distills some beautiful Vedic hymns as well as powerful mantras from the post-vedic period. The Siva Sankalpa rings in the ancient tones of auspiciousness, while the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad sections (Braahmanam) I and II of the first chapter) take us right into the heart of the ancient search. Speaking in the context of the great Aswamedha sacrifice, the passages assert that knowledge of the Supreme Brahman alone is capable of freeing the soul from all its limitations. The purusha Suktam gives us a glimpse of the Cosmic from of god. Chants (Om Sri Ramaya Namaha). Powerful hymns (Mahishasuramardini) time tested recitals for all round well-being (Aditya Hridayam), protective chants (Sundarshna Kavacham) and Vedic benedictions (Bhadra Suktam) also form part of this valuable album. A remarkable array of effective mantras.

The Soundless Para Brahman becomes the Sabda Brahman (the Supreme Lord of the manifested world) when the phenomenal world comes into being. When the aspirant worships the Lord through chants and mantras prescribed by the ancient texts, he reaps the rewards of a fulfilling life and ultimately becomes one with the undifferentiated illumining self. The rhythmical vibrations of chants and mantras regulate the unsteady vibrations of the sheaths of the worshipper and transform him. From the chants and mantras arise the forms of the gods worshipped through them. In this valuable album a judicious mix of Vedic and post Vedic chants and hymns are presented to the aspirant. The Swetharka Ganapti Mantra, the Panchashani, and Purusha Suktham are full of strengthening Vedic vibrations. Chapter XI of the Bhagaved Gita presentation the words of Lord Krishna, Himself the supreme Avatar, the Cosmic from of God. The ‘Lakshmi Namvali’ (wealth happiness, victory) Meenakshi Pancharatnam (freedom from fear, peace, and happiness) Shyalma Dandakam, (wisdom, mastery over arts) and Amba Navamanimal (divine protection, victory one-pointed devotion to god) are divine hymns resonating with mantric syllables that bless aspirants with all auspiciousness. Ancient Chants is a valuable treasury of divine mantras and hymns.

The Devis and Devatas (goddesses and deities) of Hinduism only represent the different functions and powers of the one Supreme God. The deities are shown as male and female because the existence of the manifested universe depends upon the primary differentiation of the Supreme Reality into two opposite aspects, one positive and the other negative. This is the secret behind Lord Krishna’s assertion in the Bhagavad Gita that prayers addressed to all gods reach only the Supreme Being. In this album ‘Mantras of Gods and Goddesses’, we first address our prayers to Ganapati, the elephant faced Lord of good beginnings. When we begin our endeavors with his blessings, they are bound to be successful. Adoration of Ganapati brings victory, wealth and yogic realization. The Lakshmi Ashottaram and Ashtalakshmi Stotram bring the positive vibrations of Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, auspiciousness and compassion. Authentic versions of Subramanya Gayatri (removal of bad effects of Mars), Dhanvantri Gayatri (freedom from diseases of every kind) and Hanuman Gayatri (intellectual might, strength, courage) follow. The prayer to the twelve jyoti lings (aspects of light) of Shiva and chanting of Om Arunachaleswaraya Namaha is another aspect of this important album.

Sanskrit is called the Deva Bhaasha, the language of the gods, because of its perfect relationship between word and meaning. Every letter of Sanskrit has a direct force which exists by the nature of things and not by human choice, the mantras in Sanskrit awaken superhuman power in those who chant and meditate on them. A mantra is god-consciousness in a sound-body, eternal and evergreen. A mantra is divine energy (Shakti).
That is latent in the eternally determined sounds of shaastra (scripture). In this carefully structured album of Mantra sounds, we have first excellent selections form the Brihadaaranyaka, the greatest of the Upanishads, revelatory texts on the highest wisdom of the East, Sections IV and V of the first chapter (Knowledge of the Supreme Self confers immortality, The Inner Self in our hearts is the Supreme Brahman) bring the incantatory cadences of the subliment realization in the history of men within our reach.

The Vedas, which are the fountainhead of Hinduism, are considered to be the breath of God. The import is that they embody the subtle vibrations responsible for the creations of the universe. When we chant or given ear to the Vedic mantras we connect ourselves to the most powerful sound on earth. This carefully structured album begins with homage to Ganapati, the god of good beginnings, and presents the third section of the Brihadaranyaka, the greatest of the Upanishads, called the Udgeetha Brahmana; it narrates the Vedic allegory of the gods and demons and reveals that only the knowledge of the Supreme Self can annihilate man’s ignorance. This album also includes very powerful chants like the Sarabha Gayatri (victory over enemies), Varaha Gayatri (cure for poisonous bites) and very powerful chants like the Sarabha Gayatri (victory over enemies), Varaha Gayatri (cure for poisonous bites) and Pratyangra mantras (achievement of aim) which give certain victory in all endeavors.

In the Transcendental state, God is the only realty. But in the relative world in which we live, He is the King of Kings. The Hindu worships the deity in the temple as a great king and receives boons from Him. This is an experience of life. Just as the king is roused from sleep with music and panegyrics early at dawn, the deity at the temple is Worshipped with Suprabhathams. When the devotes wakes up form a refreshing night’s sleep, he first worships the Lord with fervour. The sacred vibrations that flow into the devotes because of contemplation on the divine form at dawn, give him the strength and power to see life in the proper perspective, In this excellent album, there are powerful dawn hymns like sriman Narayana (in the delightful morning raga Bhouli), Uchishta Ganpati Suprabhaatam (victory in all endeavours) and yogalakshmi Narasimha Suprabhatham (good luck, victory over enemies, riches). The Muthuswami Dikshithar hymn (morning prayers) on Lalitha. Shiva and Durga are divine prayers that confer great blessing on the devotee. The gayatri mantras brim with powerful vibrations. The gayatri mantra proper confers a mighty intellect, strength and spiritual vision. Sudarshana gayatri (victory, power, protection) and Dhanvantri gayatri (health energy) are valuable mantras. Om, the one-syllabled name of the Almighty is the pinnacle of mantra power. By awakening the Lord, one awakens one’s own luck, spiritual vision and divine energy.

A Mantra is more than uttered prayer, more than physical sound. It is a potent Compelling force, as it consists of words of power. By the chanting and repetition of a mantra. Or by meditation on it (through hearing), the deity is attained and compelled to act in one’s favour. For, the mantra of a deity is the deity itself. Sincerity, devotion and steadfastness in chanting and hearing mantras transform a person and brings spiritual clarity and balance. ‘ Inner Power of Mantras’ begins with a rare chanting that reinforces the Vedantic truth that all organs, gods and worlds emanate from the Supreme self as little sparks from a fire (Brihadaranyaka, Section I of Part II). The incantatory effect of this sublime Upanishad passage casts a divine spell on the listener. The Rudram and Chamakam are powerful hymns from the Veda, and are chanted to this day in most Siva temples. Also called Namakam, Shatarudriya and Rudropanishad, the Rudram which occurs in the Yajur Veda is said to be superior to all the Vedas put together. Freedom from the effects of past sins, right knowledge and release from bondage are the effects of devout listening to the chanting of Rudram and Chamakam. Om Arunachaleswaraaya Namaha (addressed to the Lord of the Spiritual hill, Tiruvannamalai), Sir Sundarshana Gayatri (success in endeavours, triumph over inimical forces), Sri Shyamala Gayatri (mastery over subjects, power of discrimination) and Mritynijaya Mantra (health, freedom from disease longevity) are among other powerful mantras in this album. The Lalitha Pancharatnam brings good fortune, knowledge, and great happiness. A priceless array of mantras.

The great sages of India called the early hours of dawn as ‘Brahma Muhoortha’ – the hour of the gods. It is the period of time most conducive to meditation on the divine forces. ‘Music for Morning Meditation’ builds on the potent vibrations of early morning with the powerful Ahir Bhairav raga. The limpid notes recreate the cool tranquility of dawn and establish harmony and happiness in the individual. The mind is enlivened and feels divine exhilaration. This is followed by a beautiful tonal poem to Ushas, the beautiful Vedic goddess of daybreak. The roseate and golden hues of the skies are mirrored in the captivating strains of Charukesi. The exquisite beauty of creation unfolds in wondrous cadences. The energizing power of the magnificent Sun is then set forth in the puissant notes of Bhoopali. The final dhun underscores the fact that all work is worship of the divine.

The mantra rings in the ambience of meditation and music sustains the mood in this special album meant to guide you to realms of eloquent silence. ‘Om Satyam, Gnaanam, Anantham’ (Om Truth, Knowledge and Infinity) chants the Guru from whom the fragrant bamboo takes over with whisphering cadeneces of mellow Madhuvanti raga. The vibraphones build up the atmosphere of peace. The onset of meditational ecstacy is echoed by the Guru’s mantra “Om Brahmaanandam Paramasukhadam” (Om, the rapture of Brahman, the ultimate Bliss), which the bamboo weaves into magical webs captivating Chandrakauns. The sweet strains of innocent happiness culminate the meditation. An album you will cherish.

During the month of Phalgun, i.e. February –March, on the 14th night of the new moon, millions of devotees of Lord Shiva celebrate the holiest night of the year, Mahashivarathri.Observed both as a discipline and also as a festival, devotees observe this auspicious occasion by keeping a strict fast and staying awake throughout night. They venerate the Lord through meditation and also by chanting his name, singing his praises, intoning “Shri Rudram” and by pouring holy water on the Shiva Linga. (Abhisheka)

In the tabla tarang, the ‘dayan’ drums of the tabla are tuned to different pitches in the ascending order to enable the playing of melody. In this rare programme, veteran ‘tabla tarang’ player H.P.Ramamurthy, who comes in the line of Ganayogi Panchakshara Gavai, makes the tabla tarang ‘ sing’ in classical, folk and devotional styles.

The musical variations that the duo invests on the compositions bear the stamp of maturity and classicism. From a choice culling of pieces form the Carnatic Trinity (Muthuswami Dikshithar’s Varali piece Maamava Meenakshi is the central composition) to the wonderful Kanada song of Swati Tirunal (‘Maamava Sada Janani’) and the masterworks of contemporary composers like Papanasam Sivan (Naanoru Vilaiyaattu) and Thanjavur Sankara Iyer (the masterly Ranjani Mala), melligluity, sublimity and class are the hallmarks of the playing here. A delectable fare of first – rate music.

This is a tasteful attempt at taking famous and catchy compositions of great composers to a larger audience by imaginatively giving them a setting mood, harmony and context. Talented flutist B.V.Balasai, whose sweet tonality, excellent blowing and grasp of the Carnatic idiom have made him a byword for versatility, has played the flute apart form scoring and arranging the background music. Evergreen hits like Brahmam Okate (The Supreme truth is one), Kurai Ondrum Illai (Rajaji’s rare offering), Muruganin Maru Peyar Azhagu (the bewitching beauty in Behag), and Krishna Nee Begane (the magic of Yamuna Kalyani) are dressed up in brilliant fineries of melody and rhythm. Western bounce, Carnatic charm, folk allure, light classical appeal…. all these in a sensitively evoked musical atmosphere backed up mainly by Balsa’s flute go to make ‘Moods of Bamboo’ an unforgettable album.

The golden sands, the silver-crested waves, the limitless expanse of blue, the inviting cool breeze…. the very moment you approach the ocean you feel a sense of release. Dawn, when the sea is aglow with the golden orb the sun and Night when it is crowned by the star-spangled sky are glorious spectacles that free man from all pettiness. ‘Sounds of Nature – Ocean’ captures the moods of the sea, its mysterious silence, its beauty at dawn, its sparkle and vigour, its cool, energizing tough and it awe-inspiring magnificence so as to calm the mind and lead it to vaster horizons. The sounds of criss-crossing waves are interwoven with the lyrical graces of the bamboo flute in all its varied moods as well as the strains of the santoor and piano. Peace, joy, release from stress, a sense of the Passing nature of things and thus liberation from the ephemeral into the everlasting… these are the effects of this album, which is a sparking wave of melody and harmony arising from the ocean of music.

The shadows grow longer as the sun inclines towards the west, and the day’s activity begins to wane. As one grows sensitive to the natural cycles, the rosy hues of twilight become an invitation to meditation. Appropriate music greatly enhances the atmosphere of calm, giving one spiritual, mental and physical peace. ‘Music for Evening Meditation’ brings contemplative music of the highest quality from time-honoured Indian raags. Yaman, which has strong associations with the evening, creates a distinctive ambience of peace and tranquility. As the raag exploration soars up the higher octave a feeling of ecstacy and rapture is generated. The soft, lyrical tones of the Dilruba attuned to the ringing notes of the tambura build an experience of quiet and serenity that one yearns to return to again and again. Ragas Mishra Khamaj and Bhoopati build on the tryst with serenity.

The chakras are centres of vital energy in the subtle body, revealed by the great sages of India. Imbalances in the chakras caused by sprees, wrong thinking and trauma, lead to obstruction in psychic energy flow. When balanced, the Sahastraara or Crown chakra opens up the individual to universal consciousness and it slimitless energy and joy. Imbalances blight the inner life. Attuning the mind to the vibrations of Darbari Kanada, the great raga associated with the crown chakra, rewards the listener with divine wisdom, Tranquility and inner richness. When the crown chakra is healthy one has pure awareness of oneself and the world. This brings complete confidence and trust in the divine dispensation.

"“Jyotirgamaya” has been created to support the cause of our welfare trust “Trinayani”. I thank all my friends for their invaluable contribution towards the making of this album.
A prayer does not is looking for the right path, a prayer leads us to the ever-shining zone of light, the ultimate haven, where one is always welcome as a human. I believe that this feeling is no different from the way a child, in its purest form feels, when it looks for refuge at the bosom of its mother. A prayer takes us to that place, where one is always welcome. Despite ones pretensions, sins or failures and is secured in the embrace of the Divine. I am fortunate enough to be able to create this album, which I have dedicated not only to my mother by to the ever-embracing divinity of motherhood at large.
Besides as a compilation of some brilliant prayer songs this album is a pathfinder in terms of bringing cult figures such as Kabir, Yakrang, Narayan Swami, Khalas and Bhaji together. The content of the songs have a universal appeal and will speak to all beyond the barriers to age and time.

"It is the experience of the sages of India that human life is a great opportunity for spiritual evolution. They looked at the entire spectrum of life from the spiritual angle. It was in this manner that they discovered the chakra, psychic energy centres in the hyman body that shows the path of higher consciousness. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The heart chakra, called the’ anahata’ chakra because the sages heard the unstruck sound there, is the wish fulfilling centre which confers all boons as well as the greatest blessings of everlasting life. Imbalance in its functioning leads to arrogance, greed and vanity, while its health confers optimism, endeavor and the capacity to discriminate between truth and untruth. Bhairav, also called the Adi Raaga the first raaga, is associated with the heart chakra, and bestows all the positive vibrations of the chakra on the listener. In this rare album,
Pandit Pandurang Parate of the Tanras gharana plays Bhairav in the authentic traditional way on the majestic Surbahar.

The sages of India found answers to the great questions of life and revealed the way of everlasting life and happiness. One of their great discoveries was that the body is a microcosm of the universe. They found the subtle body to be a marvelous universe of crisscrossing nerves called naadis and energy centers called chakras. They also perceived the deities who presided over the powers of these chakras so that aspirants could contemplate the deities, go up the ladder of the energy centers, and realize the highest potential of their life. This album is graded to take you up the chakras by making you contemplate the powers that are dormant in them. Ganapati, the elephant headed god who ensures success by averting hindrances presides over the Mooladhara, even as Sakti, the mother goddess represents the entire cosmos. The planet concerned in this respect is Mars. We have here traditional Sanskrit scholars spiritedly rendering the hymns connected with each energy centre. We move up to the six petalled Swadishthana and with Saraswati and the planet Mercury attunes ourselves to its benign vibrations. In this way we move up to the six chakra, the Ajna where the vibrations of the Pranava guide us to the regions beyond mind and word. Still future, Dakshinamurthi, the supreme guru illumes us with the true vision of our divinity culminating in the Vedic benediction. Chakra Chants for you to travel to the Beyond with the help of the divine deities.

"The Vedic religion, popular known as Hinduism, helps people live a life a fulfillment through manifold spiritual insights embodied in mantras and sacred hymns. Hinduism looks upon the body and life on earth as the expression of divinity and teaches us the art of expanding the horizons of our consciousness. The mantras in this album, recited by authoritative Sanskrit scholars, put us directly in the current of divine vibrations. Tap the pristine fountains of the Gayatri mantra, the supreme prayer for light and direction from the Supreme Intelligence called God, and you have the guaranteed key to health, peace, power and prosperity. Aditya Hridayam, the great hymn addressed to Surya, the sun god, which helped Lord Rama himself in the culminating duel of the Ramayana is a proven chant for success in every sense for everyone. The Purusha Sukta hymn again ensures all round happiness and well-being. Mantras pertaining to Dhanvantri, the divine physician who brings the knowledge of good health, are again assured ways of achieving healing. Powerful mantras of Sudarshana, the discus of Mahavishnu and the very repository of the Lord’s power, Narasimha, the man-lion incarnation of Mahavishnu, and of Lord Siva, whose very name spells auspiciousness, and other Upanishadic taxts are time-honoured measures to achieve health, wealth and success.

Prosperity is one of the great aims (purusharthas) of human life, according to the Hindu sages. It finds the second place in the fourfold aim of dharma (righteous life), artha (wealth), kaama (desire and physical fulfillment) and moksha (liberation). Mahalakshmi is the goddess of wealth and good fortune. Mantras and Sanskrit hymns addressed to her result in the prosperity and well-being of those who propitiate her. Mahalakshmi is the embodiment of compassion and showers devotees with the boons they seek. This album has the choicest selection of mantras and hymns rendered in the right diction by experienced scholars meant to harness benign vibrations of powerful Sanskrit syllables. Following the propitiation of Ganapati (who too is considered to preside over success and wealth) and Kubera (Vedic god of wealth), there are a string of hymns of Mahalakshmi capped by the Kanakadhaara Stotra, a powerful chant composed by the great Adi Shankara himself as a sure means of getting the grace of the goddess of wealth (Kanakadhaara mean shower of gold). Prayers to Lakshmi Hayagreeva (Hayagreeva is a manifestation of Vishnu as knowledge) and Sudarshana, the deity who represents the power and might of Mahavishnu, are capped by Vedic chants for wealth and well-being. Albums that will make you count your blessings.

Sanskrit is the language of Satya Yuga as it is based on the true and perfect relationship between sound and sense. That is why hymns created in Sanskrit by sages and seers give various beneficial results to those who worshipped not only as the sustainer as part of the Trinity, but as the Supreme Being, are culled to shower the choicest blessing on devotees. This album, offered by traditional Sanskrit scholars with perfect diction, begins with a hymn to the Lord who takes ten major incarnations to come to the succour of mankind. It is followed by authoritative chants to Sri Krishna, the supreme avater who declares that he will look after the well-being of devotees who surrender to Him. This is followed by Raghuveera Gadyam, a powerful tribute to Sri Rama, God as perfect Man, composed by savant Vedanta Desika and recitation of the mantra of Rama. A rare hymn to Vamana, the Vishnu avatar who grew up to be Trivikrama, the Lord who strode the three worlds in three steps, and gave liberation to Bali by crushing his ego is another powerful chant, potent prayers to Narasimha (the man lion avater), Sudarshana, the Lord’s discuss and symbol of His might, Hayagreeva (the horse-headed aspect of Vishnu who is a repository of art and knowledge), and Balaji (the vouchsafer of boons in the kali Yuga) follow.

"From the base of the spine to the crown of the head there are subtle energy centers called Chakras. These are channels of the Kundalini Shakti, the divine power of consciousness that we all possess. Awakening the chakras leads us to greater levels of awareness and peace and transforms are limited human power to godliness. The imbalance of the chakras clouds our vision and cause various physical of the chakras. The Swadishthana is the second chakra in the ascending order and grants beauty, poise and sexual fulfillment. The disharmony of the chakra leads to lack of vitality, Inhibitions, suspicion, false knowledge and cruelty. Yaman, the great raga, is associated with this chakra and meditating on its mellifluous strains helps one harness the power and grace of the chakra. Pandit Pandurang Parate, a veteran exponent of the Tanras gharana, leads us gently into the luminous domains of the raga.

"The chakras are subtle centers in the body (Corresponding to the nerve plexuses in the spinal cord) which channelise the psychic and spiritual energy lying dormant at the base of the spine (Kundalini Shakti). Because the upward movement of the energy is spiral when it is awakened, it is called serpent power. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The Ajna Chakra is the centre between the eyebrows, and is called the seat of the guru. It is here that the sacred syllable Aum is situated. This is the centre where the mind is full of peace and stability. Since the three major nadis, ida, pingala and sushumna reconverge here, it is called the triple confluence of freedom (Mukta-Triveni). A balanced third eye chakra gives wisdom, discrimination and illumination, while disharmony in this sphere spells mental chaos, insensitivity and visual impairment. Bageswari is the raga associated with this chakra. The sensitively played music is this album will balance the chakra and bring charity of mind, incisive vision and peace. Pandit Pandurang Parate of the Tanaras gharana plays the deep sounding Surbahar in raag Bageswari to give you a deep, intuitive experience.

"It is the experience of the sages of Indian that human life is a great opportunity for spiritual evolution. They looked at the entire spectrum of life form the spiritual angle. It was in this manner that they discovered the chakras, psychic energy centers in the human body that shows the path to higher consciousness. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The Vishuddha Chakra, the Fifth chakra is located in the throat. It is the centre of the ether (aakaasha) Principle, and the power of hearing, speaking and creativity are associated with it (being the dwelling place of Saraswati, the goddess of learning). It is described as the region of the moon, the moon without a single blemish, the ‘gateway of the great liberation’. One, who mingles with this chakra by concentration, becomes a great sage enjoying perennial peace of mind. Such a person’s words and thoughts become the engines of spiritual energy. An unbalanced and unhealthy throat chakra severely impeds the capacity to communicate with others and also creates problems related to the thyroid, throat and ear. When the Throat Chakra is in fine balance, the individual reaches the peak of creativity and inspiration. Raaga Jaijaivanti is associated with the throat chakra and bestows all the positive vibrations of the chakra on the listener. In this reare album, Pandit Veereshwar Madri, who comes in the line of Panchakshari Gawai of the Gadag school of Hindustani music, plays Jaijavanti in the authentic traditional way on the rare instrument, the Tarshenai.

"Sanskrit is called the language of the gods (devabhasha) as it is based on the true and perfect relationship between sound and sense. It has been said that Sanskrit is not just a language but a power, ‘with every one of its vowels and consonants having a particular and inalienable force’ (Sri Aurobindo).

"The great sages of India were practical visionaries who envisaged the spiritual destiny of man based on their own inner experiences. They considered the body as the temple of god and made in the basis for man’s greater voyage into subtler worlds. Such was their discovery of the serpent power, the Kundalini that lies coiled at the base of the spine, the ‘nadis’, channels of the subtle body that carry the vital energy, and the ‘chakras’ psychic energy centers in the sushumna nadi ( the most important channel that extends from the base of the spine to the crown of the head). The health and correct balance of the chakras gives a fruitful life and expands the consciousness to the divine level. The Manipuraka, which is the third chakra in the ascending order, is the centre that gives energy, optimism and transforming power to the individual. As its name indicates, the Manipuraka chakra glows like a lustrous gem, which is not surprising since it is the centre of the element fire. When the chakra is purified, it frees the person from the burning desire for worldly pleasures. All the negative energies and impurities of the ego are burnt up at the altar of this fiery centre. Raaga Malkauns is associated with Manipuraka and bestows all the positive vibrations of the chakra on the listener. In this remarkable album of soothing music based on the chakra’s raga, the strains of the sitar, flute, tabla and shehnai mingle seamlessly in the music of Ganesh Muthu, a disciple of Ustad Ahmad Hussain Khan of the Achpal gharana. You have a magical web of caressing melody here.

The life force of normal men and women lies dormant at the base of ths spine (the Muladhara chakra), and they see everything through the series of chakras, the subtle centres of energy. One can therefore imagine what will happen in the case of imbalance of the chakra. It is for this reason that the harmony of the chakras is important. The various chakras are presided over by deities and by meditating on them through apt mantras and hymns one can balance the chakras. Ganapati, the elephant-headed god who removes obstacles is to be meditated upon with the Ganapati Gayatri as presiding over the Mooladhara chakra at the base of the spine. The names of Vishnu and the hymn to Garuda, the white-necked kite that carries him, while contemplating the Swadishtana chakra at the root of the sexual organ give one the crucial balance with regard to the sexual drive. Rudra Gayatri (Manipuraka, the navel chakra), Isavasya Upanishad (Anahata, heart centre), Nataraja Gayatri and Thandava (at Vishudhi, throat chakra – the seat of the ether principle,) Omkara Dhyanam (at Ajna, third eye chakra which takes one beyond the realms of mind into pure awareness) and Guru and Dakshinamurthi hymns (at the thousand petalled lotus of illumination in the crown of the head), gradually expand the horizons of human consciousness to the divine level. Vibrate to the rhythms of the chakra deities and make for a harmonious success in life.

DILRUBA: Is a stringed instrument of the bowed variety with a fingerboard and frets, which resemble the sitar. The instrument resembles the sarangi; its belly too is covered with skin and it too is played with a bow. All the nuances of the sarangi are possible on the Dilruba, which makes both instruments ideal as accompaniment as also solo play.
TABLA TARANG: Is a take off from the Tabla and makes this rhythmic accompaniment a melodic instrument by using a number of treble drums. These drums are tuned to the various notes of the octave, which enables the player to coax ragas and melodies from them. The Tabla player who has attained finesse in playing his instrument may venture into tabla tarang playing and become the main player. Disjunct notes and limited range (not more than 16 instruments can be played because the player cannot reach out to too many) are the limitations of the instrument. Yet it is a novelty as it turns a rhythmic instrument into a melody instrument. Sound is produced by striking the tablas with the fingers and is both mellow and melodious

"This album aids to discover the true “self” by rendering music for the soul. Many type of music influence our moods; but chants/mantras help to stir the soul and achieve spiritual enlightenment. While music is widely acceptedto be therapeutic, saashwathi believes that spiritualitycan also result in a cathartic release of emotions and negatives, resulting in a lessening of burdens and achieving purity of mind and soul. By selecting specific hymns and prayers from Hindu religious texts and setting them to complementing melody, she has given the listener easy accass to powerful mantras and slokas without underminingn their inherent spirituality, yet enhancing their influence with unforgettable melody. Mantras connect the individual with the divine .In the Hindu philosophy,mantras, being sacred sound vibrations, are composed of sacred syallables representative of and cotaining within, great spiritual power or energy,which can awaken one’s, true self. Chanting the mantras in a proper manner generates spiritual energy, facilitating the soul to transcend to higher levels and the mind, promotes harmony on all levelson all levels, and helps to dissolve the karmas just as constant walking over weeds crushes them

"Paramashiva, or the ‘Supreme Being,’ is seen in many different forms, especially through song and dance. Often referred to as the destroyer or transformer of the Hindu Trinity, Lord Shiva is also one of the most complex and fascinating deities. Sandeep Narayan shows us a glimpse of Shiva’s power through the krithis on this album. They feature both a variety of melodic scales, as well as rhythmic structures between compositions, and within the compositions themselves. The thillana is traditionally a compositional form seen in bharathanatyam, and acts not only as a concluding piece for this album, but as an ode to Shiva, the cosmic dancer.

"Why do we chant the Yoga Sutra of Maharishi Patanjali? When we write things out and work with the written word, we are dealing with external forms. The written form is the grossest level of interpretation of oral traditions. When we chant we use our vocal apparatus to produce the sound. This process brings us into the eternal NOW. When we write, a long lapse of time can pass between the time of writing and our re-reading. When we chant, the action brings us in the present moment. The process of chanting demands full attention, at least on the physical level. There is also the question of resonance. Chanting evokes and invokes resonance in letters and words. All mantra can be chanted in three forms: the manasika from (chanting in the mind) is the subtlest of forms, the vachika form (chanting externally, uttering sound) is in between, and the likita (writing) is the grossest. The subtlest way to approach the sutra would be to chant them at the level of the mind. Yet, this requires full knowledge of what one is doing. It follows that when we chant we are in the NOW, we are vibrating, and we know what we are uttering so that when we move to the subtlest plane and we chant without uttering sound, in our mind, we are as close as possible to the most perfect sounds.

"Sacred Chants
1. Atma Shatakam: The great Adi Shankara (first Shankaracharya) of the eighth century summarized the entirety of Advaita Vedanta (non-dualistic philosophy) in six stanzas. When a young boy of eight, while wandering in the Himalayas, seeking to find his guru, he encountered a sage who asked him, “Who are you?” The boy answered with these stanzas, which are known as “Nirvana Shatakam” or “Atma Shatakam.” “Nirvana” is complete equanimity, freedom and joy. “Atma” is the True Self. The sage the Boy was talking to was Swami Govindapada Acharya, who was, indeed, the teacher he was looking for.
2.

"As tiny beings, babies require quite a few things the average human would need, but in smaller portions or in different wavelengths. For instance, sunlight…. It’s not that the sun will kill a baby, but if exposed to more than a certain amount, it could be harmful to the child. So also music… depending on the genre and volume, what a regular person may consider soothing or relaxing may actually be more than a child can handle.
Lullabies are often sung by parents in calming children, putting to sleep, or simply spending time with them. The simple lyrics, nature, and storyline of lullabies are usually intended for children, and are therefore suitable for them. A parent can rock a child to sleep with a lull-a-bye, calm a discontented child, or sing along with a playing child.

"The Sanskrit term “Gayatri Mantra” denotes the guaranteed protection to those who think of it, sound it by uttering and meditate upon it. It is in essence; a mystical metrical composition of rhythmic syllables intended to produce an order of sound or tune, consistently with the invocatory process of incantation enshrined in it. The order of sound and its repetition has a primary and a greater value than the actual meaning of the ideas in it. Gayatri is only the name of meter in which many of the Rig Vedic Mantras are couched. A part from the popular Brahma Mantra or; Savitaa Gayatri’ here are some excellent collections; some of them are rare, excelling in their efficacy and potency; in the display of extra-ordinary mystic and miraculous powers. P.S. Raghuraman, K.Maloakannan, P.Jagadeesa Bhatt, K.Sivarajan, and a host of others have recited these in a traditional manner with the academic touch under the guidance of Dr.R.Thiagarajan with the help of the Music Director Mr.V.R.Manikkavinayagam.
This DVD contains the gayatri mantra of various deities viz, Ajapa, Ganapathi, Shanmukha, Saastha, Rudra, Vishnu, Lakshmi, Hayagriva, Varahi, Narasimha, Sita Rama Lakshman, Radha Krishna, Srinivasa, Brahma, Hamsa, Durga Neela Dakshinamurthy Dhara Devi Aghora Ghora Kaali Buhvaneswari Nandi Sundarshana, Vishvakesena Garuda, Anjaneya, Sarabha Mantra, Tantra Yantra Indrakshi Sankha, Navagrahas Kameswari Bhagamalini, Nithyakalina, Bherunda, Vanhivasini, Vajreswari, Shivadooti, Twaritaa, Kulasundari, Nitya, Neelapataaka, Vijaya, Sarvamangala, Jvaalamaalini Chitra, Saraswathi Gowri Mahadurga, Deepadurga Shiva , Parvati, Hari Vamaana, Shrada, Shakti, Chandeswara Bilva, Indra, Parasurama sheela, Bhairva, Vrushaba,Kaala, Panchabhuta, Shanka Gopala, Narayana, Dattatreya, Chandi Paramahamsa, Thulasi, Annapoorna, Tirupurasundari Chinnamastha Dhoomavathi Bagalaamukhi Maatangi, Mahishasura mardhini, Jayadurga, Soolini, Chandesha, baalatriupura, Shuaamala, Kaartaveerya, Shiva, Saptamthrukaas, Mahamaari, Vaaghobhava, Amriteswari, Pranva, Danti Kamadhenu, Lokapaalas and so on.

"Everyone in this world wants their children to be brought up in an environment, conductive to their physical and mental health. Of course, when the minds of the children are tuned towards the spiritual songs, their thought, attitude, Behavior, character, speech and in short their way of life is transformed and their personality is enhanced. The brain of children being tuned by the Sanskrit pronunciation becomes free from viruses and gains power. Never the less such children would be the better citizens with skill, efficiency and moral courage and shine as scientists and so on. These may look like tall claims. But our ancestors knew the efficacy of teaching slokas and hence they had followed an unwritten custom. The faith in our ancestors and their custom would no doubt prove fruitful. For the value of this training, the children will thank the parents when they grow old.

"Man becomes divine by constantly contemplating on the divine qualities of the divine beings. Eulogies on the extraordinary divine characters are to rejuvenate the innate powers that every body possesses. Chanting of the Stotras or even just hearing, they bestow prosperity of all kinds and peace of mind. Hanuman Chalisa (Hindi) pf the celebrated devotee Sri Go swami Tulasidas, and other select Stotras in Sanskrit on Chiranjivi ( the ever living god) are unique in as much as they are vibrant to establish divine connections and in granting the desired objects. Hanuman is the embodiment of knowledge of all kinds and especially in Grammar. He is tribute by his mentor God Sri Rama as one pas excellent in the art of speech. Contemplation on the divine qualities and recitation or listening of stotras on him is to imbibe his divine qualities apart from obtaining intellect, strength, fame, courage, fearlessness, and power of speech and prosperity.

"Gayathri is said to be the Mother of the Vedas. She is the powerful Almighty. The infinite creative mother, Principle of the Supreme Divine that pervades all existences. Microcosmic and macrocosmic and supports the functioning of indri as (Instruments of volition thought, action and experience.) Inner as well as outer. She is the infinite source, blissful and effulgent, of Love, Life and Truth and has the infallible power of Perfection. The Chanting of Gayathri Mantra is popular and is the effective mode of drawing her source of energy. So also, the hearing of the thousand epithets of her not only gives a vivid picture of her powers but also purifying, ennobling and exalting the listeners. It transforms and develops the listener from mortal weakness to immortal power and strength from emasculating thralldom to eternal life enriching freedom from stunting limitations to infinite divine progress. She is alone worshipped in different names as Savitri when she is identified with the powers she showers at different cycles of time as Brahdarnayakaopanishad puts it.

The Divine Mother of the Universe. Lalitha once gave audience to all the gods. To worship her came crores of Brahmas (creators) and Brahmins (consorts of the creators), and crores of Narayanas with their Lakshmis and crores of Rudras with their Gauris. The different Shaft is who came to do Lalitha reverence were also innumerable, as were the Devas and Siddhas. When they had all worshipped her, they took their seats, upon which Sri Devi Lalitha glances meaningfully Vashini and others, the goddesses of speech. There upon they began to sing the thousand names of Lalitha, composed by them earlier. At her, express command. While Devi Lalitha became glad upon hearing the hymn, all those who were assembled there were amazed as its exquisite beauty and puissance. ”Declare these thousand names to my devotees. If a devotee recites it even one, I grant him all his desired”, Devi Lalitha told then. The above details are conveyed by lord Havagriva; the horse-faced manifestation of Lord Vishnu worshipped as the embodiment of intelligence, to the sage agastya, one of the most revered figures in Hindu lord. The passage occurs in the preface to the Lalitha Sahasranama, a great masterpiece that finds pride of place in the second part of the Brahmanda purana. (The Puranas are sacred texts, which explain the Vedic doctrines, the fountainhead of Hindu Philosophy, to lay minds). Takes as a devotional hymn, the Lalitha sahasranama is a wonderful track in which deep feeling is expressed in sublime language. The sonorous alliterations and assonances, and the beautiful cadences create an incantatory effect. Unlike other hymns of thousand names, the Lalitha Sahasranamam is free from meaningless particles and words, and also from the fault of repetition. The hymn, in its straight- forward significance, invokes the celestial qualities of the goddess and builds and ambience of majesty, beauty, power and sanctity.
"Pranayama, the science of controlled, conscious expansion of Prana (the life force) is the fourth limb of classical Yoga. The art and science of Pranayama has immense therapeutic potential in a wide range of psychosomatic disorders such as diabetes, hypertension and asthma. It can be used either as a monotherapy or in combination with Asanas and other aspects of Yoga. Pranayama is of vital importance to any sincere yoga practitioner trying to achieve the state of Yoga. Unless the mind is controlled, the higher aspects of yoga are not possible and the best and only way to really control the mind is by regular, dedicated and determined practice of Pranayama with awareness, consciousness and purity of thought, word and deed.

"The yogic art and science of Mudra is a means of non-verbal communication that is subtle and refined. It enables us to communicate interpersonally with our inner self, interpersonally with others and transpersonally with the Divine. This presentation showcases important Yogic Mudras that can be done using the whole body as well as the head, neck and face. Different Mudras are used in various Hatha Yoga sequences and Kriyas to conserve and enhance the energy flow in the body as well as help attain a state of meditation in action. Concentration is improved and the mind settles into the body better when such Mudras are used. It also adds to the inherent benefit of the Asana or the Kriya. Important Yogic gestures of the head; neck and face are depicted with marvelous visuals of an international group performing the Brahma Mudra being the highlight.
Various Mudras of the Hatha Yoga tradition are demonstrated with detailed explanation of the methods and benefits of each Mudra. Mudras “gesture” the energy necessary and “seal” that otherwise intangible and illusive moment, fixing it for all time in our heart and nerves, bones and blood, mind and body, soul and thought – creating a solid foundation upon which to build a spectacular healthy, happy and spiritual life. The Mudra “seals” into our very cells that call to a Higher Life, which can never again be denied!

"Dhyana or Meditation is a higher state of Yoga that may be attained only after the practitioner has prepared themselves in a step-by-step manner. Meditation is a way to unite with our Supreme Nature and may be described as ‘fixing the mind on the Supreme with devotion and discipline’. It is the seventh of the eight steps in the Ashtanga Yoga of Patanjali and is part of the Antaranga or inner steps of Yoga. Meditation is a transcendental state, where if there is awareness, it is “awareness of awareness itself”, a state beyond the mind. Meditation is the fruit of long and arduous effort. The mind is so trained in its focus that it naturally flows into the object of contemplation. A deep, vibrant quietness is the characteristic of meditation, which infuses the entire life style with calmness and control. Meditation becomes a quality of mind that manifests in all aspects of our daily life. The mind develops the capacity to delve into every experience, thought, emotion and situation that arises, and this focused awareness produces Yogic skill in living.

The king karma, Devaki’s brother, had ascended the throne by imprisoning his father, King Ugrasena. Terrified by a prophecy that predicted his death at the hands of Devaki’s eighth son, he had the couples cast into prison where he planned to kill all of Devaki’s children at birth. Krishna was born in the prison of Mathura, but he was smuggled out to be raised by his forest parents Yasoda and Nanda in Gokul.
The stories of Sri Krishna’s childhood and youth here include that of his life with, and his protection of, the local people. Kamsa learnt about the child’s escape and kept sending various demons to put an end to him. The demons were defeated at the hands of Krishna and his brother Balarama. Some of the most popular exploits of Krishna center around these adventures, such as the lifting of the Govardhan hill, killing the five-headed snake and his play with the gopis of the village.

"Mahabharata is the largest epic in the history of humankind, as it runs to over a hundred thousand verses. It is more than simply a story of kings and princes, sages and wise men, demons and gods. It aims at elucidating the four goals of life: dharma (righteousness), artha (wealth), Kama (pleasure), and month (liberation).
Mahabharata mainly tells the story of the Pandavas and the Kauravas who vie with each other for the kingdom of Hastinapura, The Pandavas want to play the game straight and are prepared to accommodate the Kauravas, but the Kauravas under the leadership of Duryodhana want to destroy the Pandavas, Shantanu, the king of Hastinapura has a short-lived marriage with the goddess Ganaga and has a son, Devavrata (later to be called Bhishma), who becomes the heir apparent.
Many years later, when the king goes hunting, he sees Satyavati, daughter of a fisherman in the kingdom and asks her hand in marriage. She marries the king, as Devarata promises to make her son the future king.
Shantanu has two sons by Satyavati, Chitrangada and Vichitravirya. Their sons are Pandu and Dhritharashtra. Pandu becomes the king because of Dhirtarashtra’s blindness. Pandu marries Kunti and Madri. Pandu’s elder queen gives birth to three sons Yudhishtra, Bhima, and Arjuna as the sons of the gods, and to Nakula and Sahadeva.
Against them are ranged the hundred sons of Dhritarashtra, led by Duryodhana. Karna the first born son of Kunti to the sun god, and discarded by her at birth, is on the side of the Kauravas.
In Mahabharata, love, hate, loyalty, arrogance, wisdom, thirst for knowledge, will power, cunning, self-control, weakness and many other human qualities come into beautiful play. The birth of the princes, their education and their rivalry is narrated beautifully in this video with exclusive animation and rich content.

"The Mahabharata is the national epic of India and has the status of the fifth Veda. A vast work of legends, ethics and philosophy, the Mahabharata has the Kurukshetra war as its kernel. According to scholars, the Kurukshetra war took place 5000 years back in the Indian subcontinent.
This part tells about the youth and marriage of the Pandavas the pivotal “game of dice”, the turning point in the Mahabharata. As the Pandavas lose their kingdom and respect through the game of dice played by the otherwise wise Dharmaputra, it is an object lesson to gamblers. The part shows the great generosity of Karna, Duryodhana’s great friend. We see Indra diminish the power of Karna by begging for his natural armour and earrings. Find out in this part how Draupadi came to be the wife of the five Pandava brothers. The occasion of the inauguration of the great palace of the Pandavas leads to unwitting insults to Duryodhana, who hatches the plot of deprive the Pandavas of their kingdom. Beautifully narrated with excellent dialogues, this part of Mahabharata is the one, which will always be chirshed, by one and all.
"
"Mahabharata, the greatest epic of Indian mythology, is a great treasure of Indian and its tradition. The rivalry between cousins, the poignant turns that it takes exposition of ethics and the rewards of righteousness are beautifully portrayed in the Mahabharata.
This part of the Mahabharata deals with the period of exile of the Pandavas. After the humiliating game of dice, the crestfallen Pandavas leave the palace of Hastinapur. The Pandavas along with Draupadi reach a forest.
Lord Surya gives a magic vessel to the Pandavas, from which they get unlimited food. Arjuna leaves for Indrakiladri hill to get weapons from Lord Shiva. After testing Arjuna, Lord Shiva gives him powerful weapons. Egged on by Duryodhana, Karna poses as a Brahmin and learns great mantras from guru Parasurama. When the latter comes to know of Karna’s true identity, he curses him.
Krishna teaches Arjuna a lesson in humility by demonstrating to him the generosity of Karna. Krishna also saves Draupadi form Durvasa’s curse. Bhima kills the demon Jarasandha, Duryodhana is saved by Arjuna from the attack of the gandharvas. In the famous episode of the Yaksha, Yudhishtra’s moral stature brings back his dead brothers to life.
This is a great chapter of the Mahabharata with thrilling twists and turns. It teaches us that duty comes first… rewards follow on their own accord.
"
"This part of Mahabharata explains about the last year of exile of the Pandavas. After the completion of 12 years of exile in the forest, in the thirteenth year, they had to live by concealing their true identity. This phase is called the Virata Parva, as they stayed in the kingdom of Virata.
Yudhishtra adopted the garb of a himself. Arjuna passed himself off as a eunuch. Yudhishtra became king Virata’s companion and spent his days playing dice with him. Bhima worked as the chief cook. Arjuna assumed the name of Brihannala and taught dance and music to princess Uttara. Nakula looked after the horses and Sahadeva tended to the cows and bulls.
The princess Draupadi served Virata’s queen, Sudeshna. Bhima kills Keechaka, the brother of the queen, for attempting to molest Draupadi. News reaches Duryodhana and he finds out about the whereabouts of the Pandavas.
Duryodhana’s forces battle the army of King Virata. At the end, the Pandavas reveal their identity. They return and ask for the kingdom. But Duryodhana refuses to give them even an inch of territory.
War proves to be the only course. Krishna gives his army to Duryodhana and becomes a charioteer to Arjuna. Kunti approaches her eldest son Karna and requests him to join the Pandavas. He declines the proposal but grants her the boon of not attacking Arjuna twice with his lethal arrows.

"This is the most important part of Mahabharata. The great Kurukshetra war between the Pandavas and the Kauravas, the Bhagavad-Gita given by Lord Krishna, the final moments of Bhishma and Karna, and Krishna revealing his awesome divine form are found in this part. Every moment of Mahabharata will thrill and elevate you.
The 18 days of war is explained clearly with a beautiful story line. The death of Bhishma, Drona, Karna, Abhimanyu, Duryodhana, the bravery of Karna, Arjuna, Ghatothkacha, Shikandi’s revenge, the great plots of the war including that of Chakravyuha, the killing of Ashwattama are depicted here beautifully.
The aftermath of the war and the end of the Pandavas reveals clearly that time and tide catch up with all men, but only those elevated morally make life worth livening.

"Hindu mythology presents the clash between the devas (gods) and asuras (demons)... but not all devas are presented as paragons of virtue and not all asuras are shown as embodiments of evil.
Kumbakarna, the brother of Ravana in the Ramayana fought on behalf of Ravana against Rama, but not before speaking up for justice. Kumbakarna is a colorful figure, extraordinary in might but also afflicted with the extraordinary in might but also for longs spells of time. His relationship with Ravana, as also his affection for his righteous brother Vibhishana and his tragic death in the battlefield are immortal scenes from the Ramayana. This film presents the graphic story of Kumbhakarna’s life and death in a very interesting manner.
The other demon is Ghatothkaj… From the Mahabharata. Son of Bhima, renowned for his might and fighting qualities, and the demoness Hidimbo, Ghatathkaj was also a master of magic. This story of Ghatothkaj is new, full of humour, and fun. The Pandavas were cheated by the Kauravas in the game of dice. Ghatothkaj exposes the foul play of Shakuni. In the process, there is an interesting meeting between Ghatothkaj and Krishna. Ghatothkaj caused the maximum damage to the Kaurava army before he was killed by Karna. The tale of Ghatothkaj and the heroic sacrifice he made for his father Bhima is beautifully animated in this film.

"The Pandavas are the true heroes of Indian mythology. These super heroes are the mind-born sons of gods like Indra, Yama and Surya. But they learnt their skills of warfare through hard work, sincerity, devotion, truthfulness and courage.
Pandu was the king of Hastinapur and his brother Dhritharashtra was blind. Pandu’s wife was Kunti and through a boon, she was able to get children by invoking the Gods. The five mind-born sons are called “Pandavas”. Dhritharashtra had a hundred sons (called Kauravas). The eldest one was Duryodhana.
Drona, the greatest archer becomes the teacher of these princes and it is an interesting turning point. The Kauravas hated the Pandavas right from the start. Many instances show the hatred and jealousy of the Kauravas. Once Bhima was attacked and thrown into a pond but he was saved by the queen of snakes.
Competition between the princes in warfare and archery adds spice to the story. Arjuna was the favorite student of Drona, and we learn why. Ekalavya, a hunter boy, becomes a self-taught archer but ends up giving his right thumb as a fee to Drona.
The story of Bala Pandvas brings to light the innocence, humility, anger, jealousy, valour and courage of the cousins of the great dynasty. The qualities that they showed as children came to the fore when they grew up. This part of the Mahabharata is rife with emotions and deep lessons for life.

"Thai cuisine is known for its intricate balancing act of five fundamental flavors - hot, sour, sweet,, salty, and bitter. Thai food tends to be full of fresh herbs, spices, chilies, and a wonderful array of fruits and vegetables. Coconut milk plays a major part in a multitude of Thai curries, and the aromatic flavors of lemongrass, chili, lime, galangal, and a plethora of herbs permeate the cuisine.
Thais were very adapting at ‘Siamese-icing’ foreign cooking methods, and substituting ingredients. The ghee used in Indian cooking was replaced by coconut oil, and coconut milk substituted for other daily products. Overpowering pure spices were toned down and enhanced by fresh herbs such as lemon grass and galangal. Eventually, fewer and less spices were used in Thai curries, while the use of fresh herbs increased. It is generally acknowledged that Thai curries burn intensely, but briefly, whereas other curries, with strong spices, burn for longer periods. Instead of serving dishes in courses, a Thai meal is served all at once, permitting dinners to enjoy complementary combinations of different tastes.
A proper Thai meal should consist of a soup, a curry dish with condiments, a dip with accompanying vegetables. A spiced salad may replace the curry dish. The soup can also be spicy, but the curry should be replaced by non-spiced items. There must be a harmony of tastes and textures within individual dishes and the entire meal.

"Religion and music have always had an integrally close relationship with each other. As the world’s fourth largest religion, Buddhism is no exception; except the way it has intertwined with music is somewhat different to the relationship music has with Christianity, Islam or Hinduism. Buddhism is unique in that it does not consider chanting to be prayer.
Chanting cleanses the mind like water cleanses the body. When you chant Buddhist mantras, you are not asking someone to save you from evil nor are you hoping to be given a place in heaven after death. Instead, through chanting you can learn, teach, philosophize or re-memorize the discourse.
This DVD contains Buddhist chants recited by monks in monasteries in Thailand and India. It also contains a short history of the origin of some important chants, an interview with a monk and helps give a deeper understanding of Buddhist chants. Through this DVD, you will learn several important chants which are the first steps to meditation. They focus on a simple phrase and melody and repeat it over and over. The repetition relaxes the mind, and the body thus becomes ready to meditate.
The aim of Buddhist chanting and meditation is to clean the mind of defilement and disturbances, to gain insight (Vipassana) which leads to the understanding of the true nature of things. The essential features are mindfulness and awareness, which you will discover by practicing chanting with this DVD.

"The Hindustani Music that developed during the Moghul 15th and 16th century AD is based on the rich Indian tradition. Amir Khusro was a scholar poet and musicologist of rare talent in the court of Allauddin Khilji 13th century AD is credited with the introduction of new forms and styles in Hindustani music, which are still in practice today. Hindustani music is based on the raga system. Raag is the intricate system of scales and associated melodic patterns. In their numerical ratios, the scales and melodic patterns correspond with moods, colors, seasons and hours of day and night. This time theory, which governs the raags, is a unique feature of Hindustani music. The main architect of the existing system of Hindustani music was Pandit V N Bhatkhande who was responsible for the classification of the Ragas into the 10 that’s. An important landmark in Hindustani music was the establishment of gharanas under the patronage of princely states. A gharana is more a school of thought than an institution. Each of the gharanas developed distings facets and styles of presentation and performance.

Prabhakar Deshkar initiated dr.Ramdeshpande in classical music. Later he was fortunate to receive guidance from Pt.Yashwant Bua Joshi and Pt. Ulhas Kashalkar of Gwalior and jaipur Gharanas. He has also received tutelage from Pt.Babanrao Haldankar of Agra Gharana and Pt.Yeshwant Mahale of Bhatkhande parampara. Dr.ramdeshpande has excelled academically with post graduate degree in music from Nagpur University with gold medal. He is an A Graded artist of Akashwani and Doordarshan and has performed several prestigious musical platforms in India and all over the world.
