Shyamdas Rainy Season Poem

Dhule Dhule Gaura Chand

Sri Ramachandra describes the beautiful characteristics of the Divine - the most merciful, the remover of all fear, with soft, lotus-like eyes...

The name 'Rama' means 'the source of all pleasure'

"Politics and people will let you down and life can be very disappointing. At such a time, when you hear Krishna's flute... how can you resist?" - Cheb I Sabbah. 

"Live at Rudra Mandir" is the Kirtaniyas's first live album recorded on February 02/15/2013 at Rudra Mandir in Berkeley, California. 

The project was produced by the late Cheb I Sabbah who mixed and supervised mastering of the recording and was his last musical project. 

Kirtaniyas are ever grateful for the opportunity to sing the glorious names of the Divine in a traditional form, using melodies and rhythms taken from the ancient Bhakti lands such as Vrindavan, India and Navadipa, Mayapura, India.

prayers by women

Every year for one month we offer a special 8 verse prayer to Krishna called Damodarastakam. It is sung either in the morning or the evening along with the offering of a ghee lamp. This Sunday we will learn this song, understand it’s meaning and be able to sing it ourselves at home.
