"You could become a great horseman
And help to free yourself and this world
Though only if you and prayer become
Sweet lovers.
It is a naive man who thinks we are not
Engaged in a fierce battle,
For I see and hear brave foot soldiers
All around me going mad,
Falling on the ground in excruciating pain.
You could become a victorious horseman
And carry your heart through this world
Like a life-giving sun
Though only if you and God become
Sweet lovers."

Ceili in Braja - Hari Haraye performed by Jahnavi Harrison aka Jahnavi devi dasi.
The English translation of the song lyrics follow...

Hari Haraye Namah Krsna:
by Narottama Dasa Thakura:

1) Hari! Obeisances to Lord Hari, unto Krsna, and Yadava. Obeisances to Lord of the Yadus, Madhava, Kesava.

2) Gopala! Govinda! Rama! O vanquisher of Madhu! Giridhari! Lord of the gopis! Bewilderer of cupid!

3) Sri Caitanya, Nityananda, Sri Advaita-Sita!  Hari! Guru! Vaisnavas! Srimad Bhagavatam! Bhagavad Gita!

4) All glories to Srila Rupa Goswami, Sanatana Goswami and Raghunatha Bhatta Goswami, to Srila Jiva Goswami, Gopala  Bhatta Goswami, and Raghunatha Dasa Goswami!

5) I bow to the feet of these six Goswamis. By their grace, our obstacles can be destroyed and all desires are fulfilled.

6) I am the servant of these six Goswamis. The dust of their lotus feet is my fivefold subsistence.

7) To be a servant of their lotus feet and to reside in the company of devotees--this is my aspiration birth after birth.

8) When these six Goswamis lived in Vraja, they revealed the eternal pastimes of Sri Sri Radha and Krsna.

9) In ecstasy, sing the name of Lord Hari and worship Vrndavana, joyfully fixing your mind upon the lotus feet of the bona-fide spiritual master and the pure devotees.

10) The lotus feet of my guru and the Vaisnavas are my aspiration. Narottama Dasa thus sings Hari-nama sankirtana.

Ceili in Braj! Hari Haraye ~ Jahnavi Harrison:

The Hare Krishna Mahamantra performed by Jahnavi Harrison aka Jahnava devi dasi and friends.
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 Mahamantra ~ Jahnavi Harrison And Friends:

May All Be Blessed ~ Hari Om is performed by Jannavi Harrison aka Jahnavi devi dasi.
The meaning of the mantra - Hari Om Tat Sat follows...

HARI OM TAT SAT:

Hari om tat sat
Om Sat Chit Ananda Parabrahma
Purushothama Paramatma
Sri Bhagavathi Sametha
Sri Bhagavathe Namaha.”

Om Tat Sat (Sanskrit: ओम् तत् सत्, Om Tat Sat (help. ... "Om Tat Sat" can be literally translated as the ”Supreme Absolute Truth” or ”all that is.”

From the beginning of creation, the three words om tat sat were used to indicate the Supreme Absolute Truth. These three symbolic representations were used by brahmanas while chanting the hymns of the Vedas and during sacrifices for the satisfaction of the Supreme.

Thus as per Lord Himself the three words “Om Tat Sat” indicates Supreme Absolute truth.

Now “Hari Om Tat Sat” means

‘Lord Hari’ is the Supreme Absolute truth.

Hari Om Tat Sat ~ May All Be Blessed ~ Jahnavi Harrison:

The bhajan Bhaja Govindam is performed by Madi das featuring Jahnavi Harrison.
The English translation of the sanskrit song lyrics follow.....

BHAJA GOVINDAM;
Sripad Adi Sankaracarya:

1) Worship Govinda, Worship Govinda, Worship Govinda. Oh fool! Rules of Grammar will not save you at the time of your death.

2) Oh fool! Give up your thirst to amass wealth, devote your mind to thoughts to the Real. Be content with what comes through actions already performed in the past.

3) Do not get drowned in delusion by going wild with passions and lust by seeing a woman's navel and chest. Bodies are flesh, fat and blood. Do not fail to remember this again and again in your mind.

4) Uncertain is the life of man as rain drops on a lotus leaf. Know that the whole world remains a prey to disease, ego and grief.

5) So long as a man is fit and able to support his family, see the affection all those around him show. But no one at home cares to even have a word with him when his body totters due to old age.

6) When one is alive, his family members enquire kindly about his welfare. But when the soul departs from the body, even his wife runs away in fear of the corpse.

7) Childhood is lost in play. Youth is lost by attachment to woman. Old age passes away by thinking over many past things. Alas! Hardly is there anyone who yearns to be lost in Parabrahman.

8) Who is your wife? Who is your son? Strange is this samsara. Of whom are you? Where have you come from? Brother, ponder over these truths.

9) From Satsanga comes non-attachment, from non-attachment comes freedom from delusion, which leads to self-settled ness. From self-settled ness comes Jivan Mukti (liberation).

10) What good is lust when youth has fled? What use is a lake which has no water? Where are the relatives when wealth is gone? Where is samsara (the continuation of birth and death) when the Truth is known?

11) Do not boast of wealth, friends, and youth. Each one of these are destroyed within a minute. Free yourself from the illusion of the world of Maya and attain the timeless Truth.

12) Daylight and darkness, dusk and dawn, winter and springtime come and go. Time plays and life ebbs away. But the storm of desire never leaves.

13) This bouquet of twelve verses was imparted to a grammarian by the all-knowing Shankara, adored as the bhagavadpada.

 14) Oh mad man! Why this engrossment in thoughts of wealth? Is there no one to guide you? There is only one thing in three worlds that can save you from the ocean of samsara. Get into that boat of satsanga (knowledge of the Truth) quickly.

15) There are many who go with matted locks, many who have clean shaven heads, many whose hairs have been plucked out; some are clothed in saffron, yet others in various colors --- all just for a livelihood. Seeing truth revealed before them, still the foolish ones see it not.

Mantra Lounge ~ The Sweetheart Of The Gopis ~ Vande Krishna ~ Jahnavi Harrison:

Musician Jahnavi Harrison interweaves music, prose and poetry in a celebration of the women who choose to dedicate their lives entirely to God.

She explains that she has always been fascinated what it is that drives a woman to leave behind worldly affairs and adopt a life of seclusion and near-constant prayer. Though the tradition is timeless, with today's calls for feminine independence and gender equality the choice to be a nun feels just as radical and relevant as it might have in the past.

Jahnavi explores the life of Emahoy Maryam Tsegue-Gebroue, an Ethiopian nun whose prodigious talent as a pianist has led to her records being adored all over the world. We also meet the "maharis", Indian temple dancers who were dedicated at a young age, considered to be brides of God, taking part in a wedding ceremony and wearing all the markings of married women.

With readings from the 13th century Christian mystic Mechtild of Magdeburg, St Saint Clare of Assisi, the Bhagavad Gita and ancient Buddhist poetry from the Therigatha and music including the work of Christian polymath Hildegard of Bingen, The Flamingos and Yamuna Devi.

GOVIND RADHE

Chanting japa on top of a building in rural Mayapur in West Bengal. The sun was just rising, a coral disc sliding upward through the thick morning mist. I left my recorder on a ledge and birds kept cautiously approaching it and giving gentle pecks. 

Mayapur Morning Goshala Building

After the beautiful last rites were performed at sacred Keshi Ghat for Yamuna Devi, a few of us left standing on the steps were offered a free ride back down the river in the same flower strung boat that had carried out her ashes. With three dear friends, we drank in the peaceful beauty of moving downstream, chanting Krishna's names. Though the Yamuna is now 97% sewage from Delhi, the sacred power of her hidden waters is still palpable.

HH Sivarama Swami - Trying out the piano

Damodar Astaka, the title track, is a very beautiful prayer that is usually sung/recited everyday in any Gaudiya Vaisnava household during the special month of Karthika (October-November). 

The recitation of this prayer is usually accompanied by the lighting and offering of lamps to the Lord. The meaning of these 8 verses are the unique pastimes of Lord Damodara which attracts anyone that hears or reads it.
