I have no words to describe this wonderful episode - two gyanis in the field of dharmic composition and classical singing kept me enthralled. The bandhas, described in the latter part of this episode showcases the literary excellence of our masters. It's a pity that we keep on extolling the western poets, who are no match to this divine poetry. A round of applause and respect you both. 👌👌👌👍👍👍 Please keep on making more such episodes. 🙏🙏🙏 आप दोनों की जितनी प्रशंसा करी जाए वो कम होगी, आप दोनों का बहुत बहुत साधुवाद। 🙏🙏🙏

[@MadRasana]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your kind words.

[@drumsofshiva-mridangam8601]

we can keep on listening to Dushyanth's lecture. its very interesting. he is so blessed and highly knowledgeable and he live in the present and relate a lot. i came to know so many short stories thru his lectures. excellent

[@chandini.p.s]

Wonderful.I saw episode 2 posted in you tube last night finished sahithyakshari game and went to sleep it was so wonderful and so sweet like akarai vadisal . One is a shiv it’s by birth the other vishnavist yet both of them are so humble and with out prejudice to the other s lol of thought by mutually sharing their knowledge our knowledge too got enriched. NDSRSMeThaTra,the explanation by Sri Dushyanth and singing it in such a way in any way sung gives the same Raga by Bharath is so out standing.thoroughly enjoyed and prod to know the rich knowledge we have in our country .from beginning to end over all very well thought planned and video well taken for even a common man with a little knowledge to understand .Looking for moreGod bless you both to contribute more and more

Truly richly educating Bharateeya culture, music & Bhakthi

[@sureshkrishnamurthy8677]

These type of creative games(Sahithyakshari/contexthakshri) can be designed only in Sanathana Dharma(I'm posting the comment politely)..skilled scholars like you and Bharat have executed it excellently👌👏💐👍I never remember studying Swami Vedanta Desika in Tamil text books during my academics..for the past 70 years truths have been hidden..hope and pray that spineless governments stop ruling us and kids study our rich quality literatures and people who created it..it's because of them thamizh language flourished !
