[shantesh561]

what a joy..............

[ritwikraje]

Have you done the video for abhang "vitthalachya payi thararali veet"?

I rely on your videos to understand the amazing abhangas because my Marathi is not so good and these abhangas have slightly older marathi.

Pls send me the link to this abhanga's video. If you havent done its video, then pls do it.

Keep up the good job bro!!

Thanks & Regards

Dear Mr. SJisBack, I had missed seeing the Raga in the beginning of the song. Thank you for drawing my attention to it. I always had a strong feeling that it is Malkauns but thanks for confirming the same.

[DrKRShenoy]

Can anyone please tell me what raga is this? It is so lovely. I see that Panditji has sung it in different styles (atleast 3). I love this the best. and is the most touching.

I am sure he is now entertaining Sri Vittal in Vaikunth.

[SJisBack]

@DrKRShenoy As it says in the beginning, it is Malkauns.

Late Bharatratna Pt. Bheemsen Joshinchya charani bhavpoorna shradhdhanjali!

What a wonderful rendering - in a few lines Sant Tukaram lays out the views of a realized soul. Truly inspiring.

[Psyche1954]

this abhang is probably captures the entire essence of Hindu philosophy,in particular the Bhakti movement!! The words are SO powerful that an entire university could spend its entire creative genius and academic prowess in deciphering the hidden meaning of these simple lyrics

This crystallises the core of Bhakti, which is the total and complete surrender and loosing oneself forsaking all illusory obstacles. we have to loose our ego even to understand it! Only Panditji can sing this Abhang

[momthegreatest]

Ignorance is bliss...Silence can reveal all the truths..

[sherrymo1234]

Thank you very much for posting this. Tukaram Maharaj describes the state of realization in the three stanzas. The words of direct experience are indeed the most powerful of all! And Maharaj has himself chosen Panditji to convey to us his experience of the divine.

[agbansod]

Great song! Sant Tukaram understand nature of universe by mind!

Hi SJ, Welcome back. Its a huge relief.

A question:

what is the meaning of the word "ghaTi" in the sentence "deepa ujaLalA ghaTI"

[SJisBack]

@dandakaaranya Litterally "Ghat" means earthen pot, of course it is a metaphor for our body. " Deep ujalala ghati" Light of (self realization) has illuminated my mind.

Well that is my interpretation!

[talktoanils]

SJ bahu- barobar translate kela aahe... the sandili triputi part is very apt...Can I suggest you to read the "Amrutanubhav" by Dynanoba... your ability to comprehend most of the abhangs will greatly improve. :)

That being said- the track itself is perhaps the most sublime exposition of Malkauns...superb lyrics and translations - and ofcourse Bhimsen Joshi...

Keep up the good work brother.
