Chakrini - He Gopinath

JAYA RADHA MADHAVA

No me Vengas

I'll leave it to your conscience
All the offenses and a hundred and fifty thousand zeros
I'll leave it to your conscience
Millions of poisonous days

A wise man once said: "Love is a map"
So, what's our longitude?
My advances are like sideburns (Uh-huh)
And you shave them off first thing in the morning
The wise man said: "All girlfriends are snakes" (All of them)
Listen, brother, don't ever get married
The wise man said that love is like pants (Uh-huh)
And in one place, they split apart

I'll leave it to your conscience
All the offenses and a hundred and fifty thousand zeros
I'll leave it to your conscience
Millions of poisonous days

A stranger once said: "Love is a gamble"
You're the high stakes, I'm the broken hand
You're the one who always wins the scramble
I'm just a shadow, lost in quicksand
Then the stranger said that trust is a treasure
But ours got buried deep in lies
Now, I leave you with this bitter measure
And let your conscience break the ties

I'll leave it to your conscience
All the offenses and a hundred and fifty thousand zeros
I'll leave it to your conscience
Millions of poisonous days

So, how do you sleep, dear?
Your words pierce me like needles
I know that in any quarrel, both are wrong
This conscience has healed me like aloe
And around two o'clock, we go to the lawyers
Fine, you get the apartment, fine, just take the whole house
Your new day will come without me
And, you know what? God will judge you

I'll leave it to your conscience
All the offenses and a hundred and fifty thousand zeros
I'll leave it to your conscience
Millions of poisonous days

I'll Leave It

Hari Haraye

The Hare Krishna Mahamantra performed by bhajan duo "Prema Hara".
About Prema Hara:

Attracted by Bhakti Yoga, the path of devotion, Kamaniya and Keshavacharya Das have spent many years living in ashrams, searching for the divine through devotional service and singing. Seeing the impact of chanting on people, they were inspired to commit their lives to sharing the universal spiritual practice of kirtan with the Western world.

Known for her joyful expression, Kamaniya’s love for sacred chanting is apparent. As well as leading her own kirtan for the past decade, she has accompanied eminent devotional singers such as Shyamdas, Jai Uttal, Girish, Durga Das and Gaura Vani & As Kindred Spirits.

Keshavacharya Das’ search for a deeper meaning to life led him to a little Indian town amongst shrines and sadhus, where kirtan became his life. For years as a monk his every breath was spent in meditating on and celebrating divine sound. He spent the last few years traveling across the USA performing kirtan at many yoga studios and retreat centers.

The sixteen sound syllables of the Mahamantra follow...

HARE KRISHNA MAHAMANTRA

Hare Krishna 
Hare Krishna
Krishna Krishna
Hare Hare
Hare Rama
Hare Rama
Rama Rama
Hare Hare

Srila Prabhupada says:

Rama and Krishna are names of God, and Hare is the energy of God. So when we chant the maha-mantra, we address God together with His energy. This energy is of two kinds, the spiritual and the material. At present we are in the clutches of the material energy. Therefore we pray to Krishna that He may kindly deliver us from the service of the material energy and accept us into the service of the spiritual energy. That is our whole philosophy. Hare Krishna means, "O energy of God, O God [Krishna], please engage me in Your service." It is our nature to render service. Somehow or other we have come to the service of material things, but when this service is transformed into the service of the spiritual energy, then our life is perfect.

Hare Krishna ~ Prema Hara:

The Vedic prayer Jagannatha (Jagannatha Swami)Performed by Madi Das and Mallika Des Fours.
The song lyrics and English translation follow....

Śrī Jagannāthāṣṭakam:
by Śrimat Śaṅkaracārya:

Who sometimes fervently plays His flute on the banks of the Yamuna river in Sri Vrindavana, who is like a bumblebee that blissfully tastes the lotus faces of the Vraja-gopis, and whose feet are worshipped by great personalities such as Laksmi, Shiva, Brahma, Indra, and Ganesha -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

Who holds a flute in His left hand, who wears a peacock feather on His head and a fine yellow silken cloth around His hips, who from the corners of His eyes bestows loving sidelong glances upon His companions, and who is forever known as the one who performs wondrous pastimes in the divine abode of Sri Vrindavana -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

Who on the shore of the great ocean resides in a palace situated on the gold-like crest of Nilachala Hill accompanied by His powerful brother Baladevaji and between Them, His sister Subhadra, and who bestows the opportunity to serve Him upon all the demigods -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

Who is an ocean of mercy, whose bodily complexion is as beautiful as a row of blackish rainclouds, who sports with Laksmi-devi and Sarasvati, whose face is like a spotless fully-blossomed lotus, who is worshipped by the foremost demigods, and whose transcendental glories have been sung in the topmost scriptures -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

When Jagannatha's Ratha-yatra cart is moving along the road, at every step assemblies of brahmanas sing His praises. Upon hearing them, Jagannatha, being an ocean of mercy and the true friend of all the worlds, becomes favourably disposed towards them -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

Who is the crown-jewel of transcendence, whose eyes are like the petals of a fully-opened blue lotus, who resides at Nilachala, whose feet are placed on the head of Sesa, who is blissfully immersed in bhakti-rasa, and who derives happiness from embracing the rasa-laden body of Srimati Radhika -- may that Sri Jagannatha-deva be the object of my vision.

I do not pray to Jagannatha for a kingdom, nor for gold, jewels, wealth, or even for a beautiful wife as desired by all men. My only prayer is that Sri Jagannatha-deva, whose splendid glories are always sung by Shiva, be the constant object of my vision.

O master of the demigods! Quickly deliver me from this worthless worldly existence. O Lord of the Yadus! Purge me of my limitless host of sins. Aho! You have promised to bestow Your feet upon the fallen and shelterless -- O Jagannatha Swami, please be the object of my vision.

One who carefully recites this sacred Jagannathastakam, upon becoming sinless and purehearted, will attain entrance into Vishnuloka.

Bhakti Without Borders

Jagannatha ~ Madi Das And Mallika Des Fours:

MM Kirtan 1

This beautiful recording of the traditional bhajan Nitai Pada Kamala was recorded by Ramdas Abhiram Das (Kevin Yee) at his painting studio in Florence, Italy.

He sang and played all the instruments on this piece - flute, santoor, sarod, tabla and more, and recorded it himself layer by layer on a simple 8-track recorder.

This beautiful recording has never been publically released, but is uploaded with a desire to share the lesser known, but no less sublime, creative work of this lifelong devotional artist, who passed away in July 2020.

I feel extremely indebted to Ramdas and his wife Dhrti, for their many decades of artistic service. Their paintings have offered inspiration and spiritual connection to countless people all over the world, and as teachers, they have gifted their students with instructions to be treasured for life.

I was grateful to study with them for a month in India in 2007. Though many years ago, the experience is one I have returned to time and time again for fresh inspiration and guidance.

More on Ramdas:
Born in 1951 in Maui, Hawaii, as Kevin Albert Yee, Ramdas Abhiram Das, graduated with a degree in Fine Art from California State University at Fullerton. He began his career by doing illustration work, first for an international publishing company and later for the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust (BBT). In 1980 he relocated to Florence, Italy, where he studied at the Academia de Siena and the Academia de Arte Firenze and learnt the art and techniques of fresco and egg tempera. He was the Art Director for the Italian BBT for six years. Though trained initially in classical art and illustration, over the years he has developed his own style, marked for its spontaneity and mystique. Narratives set amidst nature, he has painted more than 300 oil paintings and his work has been exhibited in Italy, France, Belgium, England, South Africa, and India.
