Today is Bhahula Panchami - the death anniversary day of saint Thayagaraja. This blog is humbly dedicated to Saint Thyagaraja who taught me the devotion to lord. I'm missing Thiruvayyaru Aradhana Mahothsavam- week long extravaganza since 2004. I was been there in 2003 and I hope in future lord may bless me to attend.
Incidentally or by blessings of Thyagaraja my dream state mind sung many Thyagaraja's kritis in my dream on yesterday night and I was enjoying and aware of that. Dream was over and I waked.
I hope its true blessings of the holy saint.
Bhagawan often quotes Thyagaraja's kritis and indeed He sung many in past. In good olden days old mandir bhajan sessions later in Prashanti Mandir,Bhagawan used to sing and ask devotees to sing His adherent devotee's compositions. Thyagaraja never used his music and knowledge for materialistic achievement but lead simple and pious life dedicating all his work to Lord Rama. In deed he never composed but conversed with lord. His conversations became melodious & heartily compositions. He has a place in the heart of lord......the greatest boon lord has bestowed on him.
On this day of his death anniversary ,I pray him to bless me with devotion to lord for ever and ever & to be always under lotus feet of Lord.
