Re: Guruji and Me

malaiai kudaiyaai thaangiya gokulam kaatha govindhanai naan
charanamaai adaiyave avan en paarvaiyai utpuram aakkivittaan
athanaal nimmadhi adaindhen ulagai marandhen
aanandham thaaan adainthen
naane aanandham thaaan adainthen
naane aanandham thaaan adainthen

thanks tdu, u are giving lead to many songs... In Thapovanam, this song is sung after paadha pooja or before, I am not sure... while preparing for the abhishekams for the padhuka... I exactly do not remember... If you are involved in that song deeply, you cannot control the tears rolling from your eyes.
By the way, how do you type tamil font?

Re: Guruji and Me

Dear rajisri,

Thanks for giving the remaining part of the song. I remember some more lines

Pirappirappam bhavemenum kadalil
thaneer vathi pochu
athai thaandum kavalaiyum
ennai vittu neengi pochu
athanal nimmathi adainthen
ulakai maranthen
aanandam than adainthen

You are right. While hearing or singing this song it touches the soul.

Gnannanda Swamikaluku Jai
Radhe Krishna

Re: Guruji and Me

Hi tdu,

In my sloka book the lyrics are as follows :
Pirappirappambavam enum kadalil jalam
muzhudhum vatri pochu
athai thaanda ubayam thedum kavalai
ennai vittu pochu
athanaal nimmadhi adainthen ulagai maranthen anantham thaan adainthen

Dear rajisri,

Here is Gurunathar's ponmozhikal. We have this framed and hung in the Ashram in London.

hi all,

please find Sri Gnanananda Giri Swamigal's photo attached to my previous reply in "Pennai nadhiyin..."

Let us keep praying for Peace on earth and Let Him shower His blessings on all of us.

Re: Guruji and Me

Dear TDU,

I loved your poetic expression. But i guess a Guru is to lead you to "God in You" but your poem seem to realize the divinity in your Guru and turned blind to the divinity unexplored within you. May that love and divinity brighten up and shed light to experience the God right within You and all around you.

It is out of pure Sai bonding that I write this to you. I'd love to be corrected if you have any misgivings on what I've expressed.

 

Re: Guruji and Me

Hi, all,

This is rajisri's post. I have only corrected the font for your easy reading.

Regards,

TDU

Hi all,

There is an article in vikatan about an incident on Swamigal and Bagawan Sri Yogi Ramsuratkumar Swamigal. It is in the recent Shakthi vikatan. To see the photo of Him and of Thapovanam gives immense pleasure and brought tears in my eyes. Wanted to share the same with you all. Let Him be with us. I tried to copy that article but do not get the fonts...if anybody can help me, I can try to produce it correctly.

regards
raji

Re: Guruji and Me

Dear TDU,

It is great.... My day has been made....... I never thought you to be spiritualistic and so much involved...... It is my mistake........

Swami Haridas Giri made a revolution in the Sampradhaya Bhajans. He used to rent the Nardhagana Sabha for every sunday and have his Bhajans..... His voice penetrates into you and makes u feel ......... I dont know how to express..... My friends BIL was the armoniumist for him, who introduced us to the sampradhay Bhajan.

But I dont know about his otherside as a Swamiji.....

Going through all the bhajans etc......... flash back........ to my (G)olden days with my Guruji who was an ardent desciple of Seshadri Swamigal....

Thanks a ton...... I am feeling happy after seeing all the bajan lyrics written there....
