Jagadhodharana...
jagadoddharana adisidale yashode
jagadoddharana maganendu tiliyuta sugunantarangana adisidaleyeshode…
mesmerising lines truly! so very divine and soothing
I am really not very sure if Lord Sri Krishna existed, but I really appreciate the epic written by the great Vyasa Maharishi!… and these lines, I salute to the composer, the great "Purandara Dasaru" - who was a miser merchant later believed in charitable life and took up Sanyasatva… and is known as carnatic classical music founder…
His compositions are so very simple and pleasant and easily touches the common man, who do not know sanskrit/upanishads/vedas…it-seems he used to sing his thoughts instantaneously, apt for the situation for ex: "kagada Bandide, namma padumanabhanadu" and "Duggani yembedu durjana sangha"… etc.
His compositions show the way to attain the purity of thought, word and deed regardless of caste, religion or creed. He believed that purity of mind over mere outer purity!
I bow to this mahanubhava who practiced what he preached!

Re-sounding peace .. every time I listen to this, in the voice of 'Sri Vidya Bhushan'.. there is re-sounding peace. Nothing really matches the beauty of this song.
Given the fact that this was sung instantaneously by Purandara Dasa convinces me that he was indeed a blessed soul.
Yes! I completely agree... Sri Vidya Bhushan thirtharu has adorned this krithi of purandara dasaru, with his golden voice...
