SHRUTI BOX - Demonstration with GAYATRI and MAHA MANTRA

Here is a demonstration of the wonderful Shruti Box - One of my favourite instruments originating from India - Great for improvisational singing and for MANTRA - in this video I will be singing the GAYATRI mantra and the MAHA mantra
GAYATRI WORDS
Om Bhur Bhuvaḥ Swaḥ
Tat-savitur Vareñyaṃ
Bhargo Devasya Dhīmahi
Dhiyo Yonaḥ Prachodayāt
IN SANSKRIT
ఓం భూర్భువస్సువః తత్సవితుర్వరేణ్యం భర్గోదేవస్య ధీమహి ధియోయోనః ప్రచోదయాత్
ॐ भूर्भुवः स्वः तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्यः धीमहि धियो यो नः प्रचोदयात्
MEANING: Om: The primeval sound; Bhur: the physical body/physical universe; Bhuvah: the life force/the mental plane Suvah: the soul/spiritual plane; Tat: God; Savitur: the Sun, the Creator (source of all life); Vareñyam: Love and adoration; Bhargo: divine light; Devasya: supreme Lord; Dhīmahi: meditate; Dhiyo: intellect; Yo: May the light; Nah: our; Prachodayāt: illumine/guide/inspire.
MAHA MANTRA -
Hare Kṛṣṇa Hare Kṛṣṇa
Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa Hare Hare
Hare Rāma Hare Rāma
Rāma Rāma Hare Hare
MEANING
“Hare” is an address to God’s energy and “Krishna” is the name of God. “Rama” means “one who gives pleasure and loves life.”
"Om shanti shanti shanti," - an invocation of peace. You chant shanti three times to create peace in the body, speech, and mind.

Last summer, I met a fellow Krishna devotee who possessed a shruti box. I was captivated by the beautiful sound it made and how wonderful it accompanied her owner's voice. Thank you, Stewart, for the wonderful demonstration--and I agree with others, you have a wonderful voice. Hare Krishna!
