“Eppadi Than…” was written by Oothukadu Venkata Subbaiyar, and looks at life from the perspective of a devotee (of Krishna, in this song).

The song describes how once a person is devout, all they see is sweetness around them. The buzzing of bees becomes a song, Krishna’s mischief become endearing pranks, and his many heroics become awe-inspiring legends. Such is the sweetness of devotion that it transform’s the devotees experience of life in powerful ways.

Devotion has been an important part of spiritual processes in India. Stories of Radhe Krishna, Mira Bhai, and the Nayanmaars have been told and retold for centuries, and many devotees are seen as no different than the Divine.

Sadhguru says, “Devotion is not an act; it is not directed towards something or the other; the object of devotion is immaterial. It is just that with devotion, you have dissolved all the resistance in you so that the divine can transpire like breath. The divine is not an entity sitting up there; it is a living force in every moment of your life.”

Eppadi Thaan…(lyrics with meaning)

Eppadi than en ullam pugundu ennai adimai kondiro (swamy)
How did you manage to open my heart and enslave me – Oh Swamy!

Isai tharum kuzhalodu kundalam olira
Ivai tharum suvaiyodu vandinam murala

The flute sings its melodies, the earrings dazzle
Among all this sweetness, the bees sing their songs

Oppuyar illadha uthamane – oru
Uraga nadam aadum vithagane

The pure person beyond compare
He who danced atop a snake

Ulagirundha vaay thirandha padiyo
Alladhu uralodu pinaindhu irundha padiyo

He who contained the world within himself
(Referring to the incident where his mother Yashoda sees the world in his mouth)
He who was tied to the mortar

veliyil solla manam thulludhe
solla venum venum endra aasai kolludhe

The heart is unable to contain this emotion within
The heart desires to express itself

kulir oli mugam kandu naani naani – un
koi malar padathil ennai thalludhe

I feel shy looking at your cool, bright face
And am pushed towards your fresh lotus feet

Ini oru ulagam unai thavira yenak oru sugam illai yena thandhavaa
Thani oru mudi mel ilamayil nadi tharu thogai aniya thandhavaa

He who left me no comfort anywhere, except in him
He who wears a peacock feather on his head

Uri yeri kalavaadi thozharodu unakenakena thindravaa
Oorariyum munbu annaiyidam sendru ondrum ariyaadu nindravaa

He who stole butter from the pots and shared it with his friends
And ran up to his mother and stood innocently before complaints reached her
                                      – Oothukadu Venkata Subbaiyar

Eppadithan En Ullam - Carnatic Fusion Music (Sounds of Isha)

Nadha in Sanskrit means “sound” and Aradhana signifies “worship” or “devotional offering”. Nadha Aradhana is an intuitive synthesis of vocals and instruments performed twice daily in the Dhyanalinga Multi-Religious Shrine at the Isha Yoga Center in Coimbatore.

An enchanting and deeply healing mix of singing bowls and assorted natural musical instruments in conjuction with voices, Nadha Aradhana is a live offering that enables listeners to slip effortlessly into a receptive mode, making them available to the divine energies and Grace of the Dhyanalinga, and allowing them to experience deep states of meditation.

Every Nadha Aradhana ia an unfailingly moving experience. Emerging as it does from a state of deep interiority, it is an expression of the performers’ reverence and love – a response to the powerful presence of the Dhyanalinga. The soothing tone of the singing bowls sets the tone, inviting listeners to delight in an arabesque of pure sounds, unmediated by sahitya or lyrical content. Here artists of Indian,  and Western styles combine with the bamboo flute, guitar to create a soaring oblation of sacred sound. As the musicss draws to a close, an intense and passionate sequence of Indian percussion takes over(in full version), its lingering echoes enabling listeners to experience the imminent silence that follows in a way they never have before.

Nadha Aradhana is performed in the Dhyanalinga Temple daily from 11.50 am to 12:10 pm and from 5:50 pm to 6:10 pm – timings that are recognized as sandhya kalas, or phases when nature itself undergoes a deep transition, and are known to be especially conducive for one to experience dhyana or meditation.
