Pallavi

nidhi cāla sukhamā rāmuni sannidhi sēva sukhamā nijamuga palku manasā nidhi cāla sukhamā rāmuni sannidhi sēva sukhamā nijamuga palku manasā

Is [possessing] wealth a greater pleasure or is service in Rama's presence a greater pleasure? Answer me truthfully, O Mind!

Anupallavi

dadhi navanīta kṣīramulu ruciyō1 dāśarathi dhyāna bhajana sudhā rasamu ruciyō dadhi navanīta kṣīramulu ruciyō1 dāśarathi dhyāna bhajana sudhā rasamu ruciyō

Are curds, butter and milk more tasty? Or, is the nectarine essence of meditation on and bhajana of Dasaratha's son more tasty?

Is a bath in the Ganga of self control and tranquility more comforting? Or, is a bath in the well of evil sense-objects comforting? Is extolling of humans fettered in egotism comforting, or is singing on the pure-minded Lord praised by Thyagaraja comforting?

Music and mind...

Methodically   Used  Sounds In Curing  diseases (MUSIC)

  I have heard people saying music is an  inseparable part of every human life.. It is the basic necessity of every soul and many more dialogues…  I thought its  just the songs that come in cinema or the devotional songs that make music.. But many don’t even hear songs. So how is it inseparable..?I set out  to discover how it works.. I cud make it out only from a baby.. J ya..!! recently  I met a 8 month baby in bus  ,she ignored me when  I touched and smiled at her. But when I whistled, she gave a chuckle. Whenever I gave a sound she chuckled.It was then I realized any rhythmic sound is music, that makes u happy!!Then I understood the real meaning of music as is said in August Rush movie.. J

Now moving bit technically, music is made of tunes called RAGA .Any tune is a string of selected swaras  or musical alphabets.As English has 26 alphabets music has 7 alphabets, Sa, ri, ga, ma,pa, da, ni , in Indian music and do,re,me,fa,so, la,se (or) te in western.Indian music is called carnatic  in south or Hindustani in north.

     Music composers:

         Many  people have used these swaras  efficiently to create certain emotions through their  tunes composed in various RAGAS. 3 people  are recognized for their distinguished work in carnatic music and called Music Trinity – ‘ Thiagaraja, Muthuswamy  Dhikshidar, Syama sastri ’ who were the contemporaries of western music Trinity –‘ Bach,Beethoven,Mozart’

 Ragas and emotions:

Emotions are called “Rasas” in Sanskrit… They are:

Love (sringaram)
Laughter (hasyam)
pathos (karunai)
anger (raudram)
enthusiasm (viram)
fear (bhayAnakam)
disgust (bibhatsa)
wonder/surprise (adbutam)

Every RAGA invokes one or multitude of allied emotions…To name a few: (in carnatic music)

        Mohanam,dhanyasi   is for joy

        Subhapanthvarali, sivaranjani for sadness but sometimes happiness

        Shankarabharanam,Karaharapriya,Shanmugapriya,Behag, Saveri and Revathi : Bhakthi and equanimity

Sindhubairavi, Desh:Most of the times Romantic

Sahana: evokes a feeling of empathy, sympathy, pity, reaching out to a pained soul..

punnaga varali evokes the snake. It is mentioned in one of the music books (I forgot the title) that by playing Punnaga Varali, a small vibration is created on the ground, and that disturbs the sleeping snake!

sAma-peace

AND SO ON…..

Whatever it is ,any raga of music invokes a peaceful an clear mind so always live with music…

Never loose ur smile dear.. :):)

சிறுவயதில் உன் பொம்மை பார்க்க நான் வந்தேன்,
பண்டிகை அன்று உன் புத்தாடை பார்க்க நான் வந்தேன்,
புதிதாக உனக்கு தோழி வந்த பொது அவளை பார்க்க நான் வந்தேன்,
மற்றவர் உன்னை புகழ்ந்த பொது அவர்களை பார்க்க நான் வந்தேன்,
யாருமில்லாமல் நி தனிமையில் தவித்தபோது,
ஏனடி என்னை வர விடாமல் செய்தாய்,
வந்திருந்தால்  இருந்திருப்பேன் உனக்கு ஆறுதலை,
என் அன்பு தோழியே...!!
                                               - நீ மறந்த புன்னகை....

This was written for one of ma friends..  :):)

Little angels..............

Your eyes cast a spell to attract everyone,
Your innocent smile knows the technique to erase others worries,
your cute little touch can melt even a diamond,
A drop of your tears can tear away many hearts,
Your tender legs' dance make people long for it,
Those undetermined words has fans more than Churchil,
You are the one who can bring happiness through your anger,
Hey child!!You are the abode of love and joy....
But y people make you a beggary toy...????
Will you ever forgive them for their fault...??

Dear friends,Let those little hands not hold before u...
Just hold them high to touch the sky....

I wrote it seeing a lady begging with a child.. i got very angry.. I should appreciate my friend  kavitha who couldnt tolerate one such incident in chennai and complained child helpline..But there was no action taken..As is said unity is strength, I request u frnds please all join your hands against such iniquity..............

Mom and me.. its a world of 2..

she is sad, until I smile....
she is lazy, until I wish something...
she is hard, until I cry...
she is not hungry, until I eat...
she sleeps peacefully, until I am ill..
Her eyes knows not tears, until I am hurt...
she knows not pain until its for my good..
she is miserable, until I hug her and say
"I Love u!!!"....
she is the reason for my I...
you know who??? she is my " Miniature Of The Heaven on EaRth... !!"

This is a small poem dedicated to my mom.. I wrote it when my mom, who was not of good health, washed all my loads of dresses in a day, inspite of me telling il do, because she said i could not wash a lot and twud cause me some health problems.. thats when i realised the value of mom and found no one can equal her love.. she loves u all times even when u r hated by all.. thats mom.. :) I am sharing this to just say, she is the best of all...

upar wala kya koyi kalakar hai...!!!

Chaka raka chi chai cho chaka lo rum, Gando vando laka raka tum Akko takko,
iddi giddi giddi go Iddi pai vidi pai,
chiki chaka cho Gili gili mal sulu sulu mal,
Maka naka huku buku re Tuku buku re,
chaka laka Bikko chikko sili sili sili go,
Bagad dum chagad dum chiki chaka cho... :):)
Dekho dekho kya woh ped hai
Chadar ode ya khada koi — (2)
Baarish hai ya aasmaan ne
Chod diye hai nal khule kahin....
Oh hum jaise dekhe yeh jahaan hai waisa hi....
Jaisi nazar apni...
Khul ke sochein aao Pankh zara phailaao Rang naye bikhrao....
Chalo chalo chalo chalo Naye khwaab bun le...
Hey hey hey hey ehhhhhh….
Bum bum bum(bum bum bum) Bum bum bum bole(bum bum bum bole)
Hey bum chik bole(bum chik bole)
Arre, masti mein dole(masti mein dole)
bum bum bole,masti mein dole bum bum bole,masti mein tu dol re ...
Bhala machliya bhi kyun udti nahin, Aise bhi socho na..?
Socho sooraj , nahaye ya Baal, bhigoke yeh budhoo banaye hume...
Yeh saare taare tim timaye, Ya phir gusse mein kuch badbadate rahein..

Khul ke sochein aao… Pankh zara phailaao Rang naye bikhrao...
Chalo chalo chalo chalo Naye khwaab bun le ...
Hey hey hey… bum bum bole,masti mein dole…

Oh rat rat ke kyon tanker full (tanker full tanker full)..
Aankhein band to dabba gul (oye dabba gul dabba gul)
Oya band darwaze khol (khol re khol re khol re)...
Ho jaa bindaas bol re (bol bol bol bol re)
Main bhi hoon(main bhi hoon), Tu bhi hai(tu bhi hai)
Oh main bhi tu bhi hum sab mil ke Bum chik bum bum chik bum chik bum bum chik…’
Bum bum bum Bum bum bole,masti mein dole…
Bum bum bole,masti mein tu dol re...

Aisi rangon bhari apni duniya hai kyun, Socho toh socho na..
Pyar se chun ke in rangon ko Kisi ne sajaye yeh sansar hai..
Jo itni sundar hai apni duniya, Upar wala kya koi kalakaar hai...!!!
Khul ke sochein aao…. Pankh zara phailaao Rang naye bikhrao...
Chalo chalo chalo chalo Naye khwaab bun le...
Chalo chalo chalo chalo chalo chalo chalo chalo Chalo chalo chalo chalo naye khwaab bun le...
Bum bum bole,masti mein dole… Bum bum bole,masti mein tu dol re...
Bum bum bole,masti mein dole… Bum bum bole,masti mein tu dol re...
Bum bum bole,masti mein dole… Bum bum bole,masti mein tu dol re...
Oye bum bum bole....................
