I heard this on the internet a while ago - there is something quite hypnotic about this music. I must have heard it first as a teenager - that's where it takes me to. I've been trying to remember what album it was from - i can remember playing it over and over again - or was it a single (which is what i think it was) ---i would imagine it was 1969/1970 as i'm sure it was pre- My Sweet Lord. Very calming - is this what George often referred to as a Mantra?? Lovely Guy - taught me alot about life!
To my knowledge these were all existing chants sung by Hare Krishnas, and Harrison composed, arranged and produced the instrumental music to go along with the chants.
@presenteter This composition is played at 7am in every ISKCON Temple around the World every day, at the request of Srila Prabupada, who also advised George to remain in The Beatles when George wanted to give everything up and become a full time Devtotee. Govindam, Adi Purusham, tam amaham bijari..
Maybe the ISKCON temples have signed a special deal with Harrison at the request of Srila P. Maybe it's only the temples that are allowed to use the song during their morning ceremonies. My question is about using the song in a documentary film. If I filmed one such ISKCON morning ceremony that included this song, and the song was heard while the people in the temple chanted and danced to its tune - can I keep that song in the film for free? If not, who holds the copyrights?
The very first time I heard it, I was taking darshan at 7 am, I can hardly remember what happened, all I remember is much colour, being transported, and when having the caranamrita at the end, the taste permeated my whole body and left me in bliss.

Until recently I used to own this original Apple label album on vinyl. It was in perfect condition. I also owned the Apple albums Postcard by Mary Hopkins and That's The Way God Planned It by Billy Preston. They were also in perfect condition too.
@777rulerofdraino777 Contact Freecloud Records in Edmonton,Alberta on their website. I gave up my collection to them in January. Maybe they can still sell them to you. Good luck!
Preciosa, nunca la había escuchado, no sé lo que dicen, pero se siente paz, armonía con el universo, y sentimineto desde lo profundo del alma. Muy espiritual.
There is nothing here that adherents of the three Abrahamic religions could find objectionable.
There has to be a common way of worship to the ultimate being, hasn't there? I cannot believe that we are all to be disunited by mere doctine and subjective definition.
The ultimate being loves us all. Isn't that common ground enough?
I bought the album on vinyl for $3 back in the late 70s. I've never seen it offered on Ebay, though plenty of other Apple LPs are up for auction. I was happy to see it was part of the set Apple just released on CD.
LORD God of Israel lovingkindness today favour beauty widow with unlimited household sufficiency with son and the rich General with skin as a baby take advice and speak your minds that sends the hornet to destroy the tribe that thinks of pride that coverups their tribe with thoughts of lewdness and folly that receiveth no man with sufficient travel provisions to house on the journey, dance in dances, every man a wife, return to their inheritance, today new cities, and dwelt in them gladness
I am not Krishna follower, but this song is simply beautiful and very spiritual....Moreover, as all of Harrison's songs ....I can not say anything else...

@TsogyalSkyDancer- riprende- piangono perche' vogliono una relazione piu' profonda con Lui , che per consolarle sorride e poi danza estaticamente con loro tra l'erba tenera dei boschetti di Vrindavana.Sri krishna ama i suoi devoti, mai li abbandonera' nel pianto e sempre con flauto suonera' le sue dolci melodie.Hari Bol

The back cover of the original Radha Krsna Temple album reads :
"All titles published by Harrisongs, Ltd except side 1 track 1 and side 2 track 2, Apple Publishing, Ltd."
Govinda was side 1 track 1. Who knows what happened when Apple was dissolved, but I'd imagine it went to Harrison.
