we are all God's children and we are all equal in his eyes...no dalit no brahmin...

Of all the Veda chants available on Youtube, this one is my most favorite. There is no distracting background "music"; nor is it a saccharine female voice full of itself "singing" it. (Just so I won't be taken for a male chauvinist, I am a female.)

Thanks for the upload.

Eternal bliss!

Could not have put the stress behind me today without this.

[olskos]

what state of consciousness are these guys in?

@reva12 . lol! It's not just a female vocalist, but even some of the modern gurus, who kill the swaras and carelessly replace "tha" sounds with "da" etc. I haven't heard this style of rendering. I think they are using a different meter than the normal. Great rendering.

I would not take offense to a shruti box/tambura in the background.

this is the true culture of India

@reva12 the veda is the music itself. no background music needed as what is recited is the music itself.

@hero1234378 Thanks for this comment. It is very heartening amidst all this bickering about which group "owns" the Vedas. The truth is no one has a patent on any religious text. Any group can take and make it their own, for good or for evil. For me it is the antiquity, the pure music of syllables and the human reach for the unknown implicit in them that make the Vedas special.

@zeuspitar

he is not wwrong nor he is right . . vedas can take you to the lord just in one case that you're intelligent enough to take good things from there and leave the USELESS things . . this is the truth that there is any person born in kaliyuga who wont get mislead because of vedas . . he may take himself to heaven or something like that but then return to earth with 'zero' puNya with him . . vedas are good for intelligent ppl who are absent in kaliyuga!

well the background sound is always prescribed and thought to be very auspicious . . something like tanpura or shruti box . .
