Peer Na Jaa bandish in Raag Malkauns by Pandit Omkarnath Thakur

After listening to Pandit Omkarnath Thakur's music once, Mahatma Gandhi is said to have remarked : "Pandit Omkarnathji can achieve through a single song of his, what I cannot achieve through several speeches." Pandit Omkarnath Thakur (24 June 1897 - 29 December 1967), was an Indian music teacher, musicologist and Hindustani classical singer. A disciple of classical singer Vishnu Digambar Paluskar of Gwalior gharana, he became the principal of Gandharva Mahavidyalaya, Lahore, and later went on become the first dean of the music faculty at Banaras Hindu University.

I think Pandit Ji passed in December 1966. I, as a young boy, went to see him in a hospital in Bharuch, Gujarat. ( Just a few days before he passed.0
