Just while I was watching a few videos on youtube, I came across this beautiful chanting of Shiva Mantra. Beautiful voice and lovely music. This song is from Weaving My Ancestors’ Voices by Sheila Chandra. This is the first album of hers that I listen to.

If you ask me to boil down my list of favorite tracks to just two, (why two? because Mike asked all of us just two!) I’d recommend these two tracks. For those who have been following the blog regularly, Karunesh needs no introduction nor does the track Bombay Pure, on whose remake by James Asher, I lamented long time ago. Shiva Manas Puja, the second track that I’m recommending, is a meditative chant of Lord Shiva that I listen to often.
Bombay Pure, from Album Global Spirit, by Karunesh

A few days before I lamented in brief about the music albums that gathered as dust in my shelf. Now it’s the beginning of the month and there is enough time for me to lament in detail before other things squeeze my neck for attention.

One of my favorite tracks in Siddharta I. Serene and meditative. I bought this album just after reading the novel Siddhartha by Herman Hesse and both the novel and music made me feel that I haven’t wasted my time with them.

Deva Premal’s Gayatri Mantra is the western rendering of the powerful eastern mantra. Gayatri mantra is called as the mother of all mantras and it basically asks for a good eye sight (inner eyes) for the chanter to see the world without illusions.
Mantra as such is very short– just four lines:
Om Bhur Bhuvah Svah,
Tat Savitur Varenyam
Bhargo Devasy Dimahi,
Dhiyo Yonah Pracho Dayat
Meaning::
Om: All of existence
Bhur: Coming, the physical world, vital energy
Bhuvah: Going, mental world, destroyer of suffering
Svah: Balance, the intellectual world, embodiment of happiness
Tat: This, 8 planes, God
Savitur: Radiant brilliance, knowledge, male
Varinyam: Adorable, venerable, supreme
Bhargo: Permeated with magnificence, destroyer of sins
Devasy: …read more
