SDN's Navarathri Series 2020
Surrendering to the Universal Mother by celebrating Navarathri - the festival of colours, artistry and multiplicity. SDN is happy to share some compositions of Devi in her various manifestations. These videos, which are recordings from our stage performances, will be published on Fridays and concludes with a Keertanam on Saraswathi on Saraswathi Pooja and the group presentation of a Varnam on Tripurasundari, on the day of Vijayadashami.
01 Kamakshi Stuti:
Oh Kamakshi, the one with eyes like beautiful lotus leaves who entices the three worlds, I surrender at thy feet.
She is the one who has the majestic gait of an elephant and lotus like feet! She is the parrot in the cage of Siva and the eternal energy that protects Guruguha and destroys all fears.
She is the beautiful goddess whose face resembles the full moon! She was the one who protected Manmatha, the God of love. Gracefully sitting on a gem studded throne, she is draped in a rich golden saree. Being the ruler of the Universe, she is an overflowing stream of bliss. She blesses all those who mediate upon her with single mindedness. She is Sankari, the consort of Ekaamreshwara.
Kamakshi Stuti- in ragam Kamalamanohari and Adi talam, a composition of Sri Muthuswamy Dikshitar.
