Another wonderful westernized version of the Gurushtakam dedicated to SRILA PRABHUPADA ONLY.

Song Name: Samsara Davanala Lidha Loka Official Name: Sri Guru Devastakam; Sri Gurvastakam

Anders J Holm steps into the Ymer Records family with “Memory Lane”  and an upcoming album, "Blues in my Heart" — a heartfelt mid-tempo blues-rock ballad soaked in nostalgia, warmth, and a little whiskey.

With slide guitars, organ pads, and a voice that sounds like it’s lived a thousand lives, Anders captures the bittersweet beauty of looking back without regret.
This is not about chasing fame — it’s about chasing truth.

Raise a glass, close your eyes, and walk down Memory Lane.

Memory Lane

This English prayer was offered to Srila Prabhupada in Calcutta, 1971, by Yamuna Devi. Now on the 4th anniversary of Yamuna Devi rejoining Srila Prabhupada, we offer this to Yamuna's dearest friend, Dina, who no doubt misses her and Srila Prabhupada beyond what can be expressed.

Our enormous thanks to Govinda Ghosh, who worked around the clock with anyone who walked in to his home to be a part of this offering. He worked so hard, but said he just wants to do something nice for Dina.

English prayer to Srila Prabhupada by Yamuna Devi, 1971
Adaptation and Bengali translation by Shrivas Beriault
1)
Sahasra-koti jiva, samsara bhramiya, koti-koti-janma gelo
Kichu dhanya-jana, bhakti-lata-dhana, guru-krishna-krpaya pelo

Thousands, millions of souls, are wandering this world, for millions of births. Some fortunate ones attain the treasure of devotion, which is like a beautiful, blooming vine, by the mercy of Guru and Krishna.

Chorus:
Nitya amara sri guru, ei krpa magi ami
Yugala-charana prema prakashite smarana kori

Oh my eternal spiritual master, I beg this mercy! May I be in constant remembrance of the dawning of love for the Divine Couple’s lotus feet.

2) Nama-guna-lila-bhakta, kirtane jagata bhuli
Tomara charana paite – ei krpa magi sada

Singing Their names, glories, pastimes, and glorifying Their devotees, may I forget this world. I beg the mercy of attaining your feet.

3) braja-kunje basi, shravana-kirtana, maha-mantra preme gai
Tomara krpaya, bhakti-lata-bija, praphullita habe tai

I pray to sit in the groves of Braja, hearing and chanting, singing the Mahamantra in great love. By your mercy, the seed of the bhakti-lata will then sprout.

4) Kapata matsarya, kama-krodha-lobha, ahankari bhakta
Nama-sankirtane, chindiya chadibo, ei saba mayara shakha

Hypocrisy, envy, lust, anger, greed, and the false devotee ego – by Nama-sankirtana may I sever and discard all these weeds of maya.

5) Vrndavane tada, radha-damodara-priya, saundarya-prakashe tara
Kataksa-darshana-paiya, hrdaya sarvanande, bhasi amara

Then, in Vrndavana, in the glow of beloved Radha-Damodara’s beauty, I will catch that wistful glance, and my heart will be consumed with all joy.

6) nitya amara sri guru, tumi sata shuddha-bhakta
Kripamayi dite sabe, radhara guhya krsna seva

O my spiritual master, you are truly a pure devotee! Mercifully, you gave us the secrets of Radha’s service to Krishna.

7) shridhama navadvipe, pibo bhakti-mata-vanya
Avidya ahankara chadi gaibo, tumi hrt-mandire sada

In Shridama Navadvipa, may I drink of the flood of devotion. Giving up arrogance and ignorance, I will sing of your place in my heart forever.

Radha Raman: Chakrini Devi Dasi:

The Vedic Prayer Sita Rama performed by Chakrini Devi Dasi.

In the age known as Treta Yuga, the Supreme Personality of Godhead Sri Krishna appeared as the avatar Rama, the valiant king, setting the standard for heroism, morality, and good government. The story of Rama is told in the epic Ramayana. Here's a summary.

Lord Rama appeared in the dynasty of the Sun god, as the son of King Dasharatha and Queen Kaushalya of Ayodha. He was heir to the throne of greater India and had three younger brothers, Bharata, the son of Rama's stepmother Kaikeyi, and the twins Lakshman and Shatrughna. Under the tutelage of His guru Vishvamitra, Rama studied martial arts and defeated many demons. In a contest of heroes to win the hand of the beautiful Princess Sita, Rama was victorious. He lifted, strung and broke the mighty bow of Lord Shiva, which other contestants could not even move. Princess Sita gladly accepted Rama as her husband and there was a magnificent wedding. All was well in Ayodhya and Rama was about to be crowned king upon his father's retirement, when...

A jealous hunchback maidservant named Mantara convinced her mistress, Queen Kaikeyi, Dasharatha's favorite wife and Rama's stepmother, to make good on a promise the king had given her years earlier. It so had come to pass that Kaikeyi had rescued the injured king from a battlefield and nursed him back to health. At that time, Dasharatha had promised Kaikeyi a boon: anything she asked, he would oblige. Mantara convinced Kaikeyi that now, on the eve of Rama's coronation, was the time to cash in on that promise. Ask the king to exile Rama to the forest for fourteen years and elect her son Bharata to the throne instead.

King Dasharatha was beside himself and heart-broken. He pleaded with Kaikeyi, but the selfish queen would not budge. The king, duty-bound, had to fulfill her demands. Rama accepted the order of His father and moved to the forest, along with His younger brother Lakshman, and wife Sita. The citizens of Ayodhya were dumbfounded. They felt as if the lights of their hearts had been extinguished. Soon thereafter, King Dasharatha passed away from grief. Kaikeyi and Mantara, needless to say, became objects of contentment. Kaikeyi's son Bharata refused to accept the throne and decided to wait out the 14-year exile until his beloved elder brother's return. At Rama's request, however, he governed Ayodhya in His absence, installing Rama's shoes on the throne.

During their stay in the forest, Rama, Sita and Lakshman had many adventures and encountered many demons. Once, a she-demon tried to woo the handsome Rama and assault the pretty Sita. When the attack became physical, Lord Rama quickly intervened and cut off her nose and ears. She was Shurpanakha, sister of the evil demon King Ravana. Hearing of his sister's mutilation, Ravana prepared to seek revenge. He sent a magical golden deer to tempt Sita, who asked Rama to catch it for her. Ravana took advantage of Rama's absence and kidnapped Sita. When the brothers discovered that Sita was missing, they searched for her throughout the forest. Eventually they came upon an old eagle named Jatayu, who informed them that Ravana was the culprit.

Rama and Lakshman journeyed south towards Lanka, Ravana's capital. Along the way, they befriended Sugriva and Hanuman, leaders of the monkey armies. With their help, Rama and Lakshman constructed a bridge across the ocean from India's southernmost tip to the island of Lanka, and attacked Ravana and the demon soldiers. At the end of a ferocious battle, Rama personally killed the ten-headed demon Ravana.
