“In Vrindavan” is a new Music Video and Single by the Kirtaniyas featuring children from Food for Life Vrindavan, an all girl’s charity school run on donation basis in Vrindavan, India. 

This release is part of a fundraising effort to bring support and attention to the school’s projects and to encourage learning of Kirtan, sacred mantra singing. 

*Personal statement from Vijay Krsna, band and project leader, founder of Sriyam Records:

"I've visited India over 14 times and spent a total of three years of my life in this sacred land of Vrindavan. Its culture offers so much to the world from agriculture, Dharma, community and music amongst other things, all in their most essential forms - Bhakti Yoga. This song was inspired by folk songs of the land, which speak about walking through Vrindavan’s flower groves and forests in fellowship, singing to its Divine couple - Radha and Syama (a name of Krishna), who are the epitome of pure love and beauty, the sacred river Yamuna that provided water to the land and its people. This way of life has been kept alive through the hearts of the people in the community who have imbibed its moods of pure love and devotion (Bhakti) and carry it with them, sharing Bhakti through their acts of selfless service but the benefit of One and all.

Each time I visit the Food for Life school in Vrindavan, I am a witness to the impressive development of its projects and values. I see how their schooling has cultivated love and compassion in the hearts of these children. Their school day starts in a way that I could only have dreamed about when I was a child : a good kirtan with cheerful, inspirational singing and dancing. This is a place where children are taught to honor their elders and have respect for one another, where folding hands in a prayer is a beautiful thing, rather than something to be ashamed of… We can certainly learn a thing or two in our Western society from such an establishment. Whilst this school might not be comparable to most Western schools with regards to facilities, what these children have taught me is that their education and upbringing can certainly offer us lessons in gratitude. “In Vrindavan” is me giving something back in return and I give thanks for the opportunity to serve in this way.”

In Vrindavan feat. Sandipani Muni school kids

Rupa Goswami has written this song “Radhe Jaya Jaya Madhava Dayite”. The official name of this song is Sri Radhika Stava. This song is taken from the book Stavamala (Section: Volume 6 Song 14). In this song, Rupa Goswami has described the glories of Srimati Radha and requested her to shower her mercy upon him.

 

(refrain) radhe jaya jaya madhava-dayite gokula-taruni-mandala-mahite

(2)

Radhe Jaya Jaya Madhava Dayite
[Vancouver, 1974: in the temple, after singing the song with the devotees, Maharaja reads the English translation given in the songbook, then explains further:]

Glories, glories to Sri Radharani, the beloved of Madhava and most worshipable of the cowherd girls of Gokula Mandala! Decorated by the dress of Lord Damodara's increasing ecstasy, You are the lady of the house of Lord Hari and the groves of Vrindavan. From the ocean of Vrishabhanu has arisen a new moon which is overwhelming the qualities of Lalita and Vishakha. O Goddess, Your qualities are described by Sanaka and Sanatana Rishis and by Sanatana Goswami. Please bestow Your mercy upon me! 

Vishnujana Swami: We're given a hint here into the nature of spiritual love. That even the dress of the spiritual body is of the nature of ever-increasing ecstasy for the Supreme Lord. Radharani is seated in the swing there with Krishna, and it's described that Her dress is not made of cotton, it's not made of silk, it's not made of oil, like the modern, today all these fabrics are made from oil, isn't it? They take oil and they turn in into dacron and this ron and that ron, you see, so it's not oil, it's not cotton, it's not this, it's not that, what is it? Her dress in made of ever-increasing love for Krishna. Now just imagine—what is the spiritual world. You see, that we cannot imagine, we're always used to making things out of dull matter, but in the spiritual world things are made out of ever-increasing ecstasy. So we're given a little hint.

In another poem, Srimad-Bhagavatam, it's described that Radharani's hair, the knot of her hair, is not ordinary, it's compared to Her confidential deep anguish for Krishna. Just like in this material world you feel deep anguish over something you love, you see. So in the knot of Her hair is an exhibition of anguish for Krishna. And in this way all the different aspects of Radharani, Her crown, Her earring, everything about Her body is transcendentally absorbed in love of Krishna. So this gives us a little hint into the nature of spiritual life. Then, there's a song now about Krishna. First we'll sing about His childhood, page 79. [He chants Damodarashtakam with the devotees.]

Amara Jivana

The chanting is a spiritual call for the Lord and His internal energy, Hara, to give protection to the conditioned soul. This chanting is exactly like the genuine cry of a child for its mother. Mother Hara helps the devotee achieve the grace of the supreme father, Hari, or Krsna, and the Lord reveals Himself to the devotee who chants this mantra sincerely. No other means of spiritual realization, therefore, is as effective in this age as chanting the maha-mantra: Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare.
