Bhakti Lalita Devi - Thakura-vaishnava-gana

New release! A collection of Bengali songs featuring "Bhajahū Re Mana” composed by the great 16th century Gaudiya-Vaishnava poet Govinda Dās Kavirāj from the book “Padāvalī". In his song Govinda Dās advises the mind, kamala-dala-jala, jīvana ṭalamala, bhajahū hari-pada nīti re, "life is tottering like a drop of water on a lotus petal”, to give up the futile pursuit of temporary worldly happiness and to worship the abode of fearlessness: the divine feet of Lord Hari. Other songs include those by Śrīla Rūpa Goswāmī, Śrīla Bhakti Vinod Ṭhākur and Śrīla Narottam Dās Ṭhākur. Chanted with devotion by Bhakti Lalita Devi & Co.

Bhakti Lalita Devi - Mahamantra

All Glory to Śrī Śrī Guru-Gaurāṅga!

“Diving deep into the reality of His own beauty and sweetness, Kṛṣṇa stole the mood of Rādhārāṇī and, garbing Himself in Her brilliant luster, appeared as Śrī Chaitanya Mahāprabhu. For the last twelve years of His manifest Pastimes, He was deeply absorbed in the mood of union and separation, and shared His heart’s inner feelings with His most confidential devotees. In the agony of separation from Kṛṣṇa, volcanic eruptions of ecstasy flowed from His heart, and His teachings, known as Śikṣāṣṭakam, appeared from His lips like streams of golden lava. I fall at the feet of Śrī Chaitanya Mahāprabhu, the golden volcano of divine love.”

-Śrīla Bhakti Rakṣak Śrīdhar Dev-Goswāmī Mahārāj, "Śrī Śrī Prema-dhāma-deva-stotram” [54] 

Encoded in the ancient language of Sanskrit and expressing an intensity of divine love never before seen in this world, the deep meanings of the Śikṣāṣṭakam are an impenetrable treasure, inaccessible to anyone who cannot also feel what is expressed therein. Therefore, several hundred years after Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's appearance, Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura crafted each verse into a Bengali song that clarifies and elaborates the meaning while exemplifying the feeling expressed in each. Song by song, Śrīla Bhaktivinoda illustrates the progression of the pure hearts’ love for Kṛṣṇa to the highest stages of union-in-separation. 

On this most auspicious occasion of Śrī Gaura-pūrṇimā, the divine appearance of Śrī Gaurāṅga Mahāprabhu, we humbly present this offering of Śikṣāṣṭakam. Chanted in the traditional ragas by Bhakti Lalitā Devī, with mṛdaṅga played by Sudarshan Prabhu and karatals played by Anukrishna D.D. and Kanika D.D.;  brought to you by the tireless service of Anantadev Prabhu and with the much appreciated assistance of Gaura Govinda Prabhu at Theistic Media Studios; recording began during the holy month of Kartik when Śikṣāṣṭakam is customarily chanted. Cover design by Pavan Krishna Prabhu.

Siksastakam sanskrit verses

Śrī Śrī Jagannāthāṣṭakam is an ancient Sanskrit composition written by Śrī Śaṅkar Āchārya, an incarnation of Lord Shiva who appeared on this earth from 788-820 AD. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu would chant this composition in great ecstatic joy. The Jagannāthāṣṭakam are eight verses (“āṣṭakam") glorifying Lord Jagannāth, a unique and ecstatic form of Lord Kṛṣṇa, 

mahāmbhodhes tīre kanaka-rucire nīla-śikhare
vasan prāsādāntaḥ sahaja-balabhadreṇa balinā
subhadrā-madhya-sthaḥ sakala-sura-sevāvasara-do
jagannāthaḥ svāmī nayana-patha-gāmī bhavatu me (3)

“Residing on the shore of the great ocean, within a large palace situated upon the crest of the brilliant, golden Nīlachala Hill, along with His powerful brother Balabhadra, and in the middle of Them His sister Subhadrā, Lord Jagannāth bestows the opportunity for devotional service upon all godly souls. May that Jagannāthā Svāmī be the object of my vision.”

Chanted in Raga Jhinjhoti by Bhakti Lalita Devi; Music composed and remixed by Abhiram Thakur Prabhu; Anukrishna Devi Dasi on the violin; Cover design by Pavan Krishna Prabhu; Sound engineering by Anantadev Prabhu and Gaura Govinda Prabhu at the Theistic Media Studios.
