Shri Krishna bhajan, recorded by Nadaka & Gopika inside the Husain-Doshi ni Gufa, Ahmedabad.
"he natha narayana vasudeva
shri krishna govinda hare murare"
"The peace of God, a mighty transience,
Is now my spirit’s boundless atmosphere.
All parts are gathered into a timeless whole;
All moments blaze in an eternal year."
A short introduction to what is a Mantra, filmed in Auroville, India, in 2012. Gopika offers a reflection on the significance of Vedic Mantra. Nadaka & Gopika sing the Gayatri mantra, an ancient hymn to the Sun.
I am swallowed in a foam-white sea of bliss,
I am a curving wave of God’s delight,
A shapeless flow of happy passionate light,
A whirlpool of the streams of Paradise.
I saw my soul a traveller through Time;
From life to life the cosmic ways it trod,
Obscure in the depths and on the heights sublime,
Evolving from the worm into the god.
"O sculptor of the living shapes of earth,
O dramatist of death and life and birth,
World-artist revelling in forms and hues,
Hast Thou shaped the marvel of the whirling spheres..."
