Raga TIVRAVAHINI

Post by venkatakailasam »

TIVRAVAHINI

An ubhava vakra sampoorna raga derived from the 46th mela shadvidhamargini. Svaras taken by the raga besides Sa and Pa are Sudha Ri^ Sadharana Ga^ Prati Ma Chatusruti Dha and Kaishiki Ni. A minor popular raga that came to prominence through the compositions of Thygaraja.

sari jesi veduka jucuta:Thyagaraja..
P sari jesi veduka jucuta Saketa rama nyayama

A dharalona ni nija dasulanu Kandarpak(A)dula nija dasulanu (sari)

C kokka zastra vidulu nara sannutice Goppa bahumatul(a)nandedar(a)yya Cakkaganu bhakti zastra vidula Cala gani navvedaru tyagaraja vinuta (sari)

Gist O Rama of ayodhya praised by this tyagaraja! Experts in the treatise of sex not only reap great rewards by praising well other humans, but also deride much those great devotees of Lord. Is it justifiable.

Shri. SP Ramh renders the above song..

The meaning for this song as given by Sri.V.Govindan is as below.

O Lord rAma of ayOdhya! O Lord praised by this tyAgarAja!
• Is it justifiable to enjoy the fun by equating (different kinds of) people?
• Is it justifiable to enjoy the fun by equating Your true devotees in this World, and those who are utter slaves to lust etc?
o Experts in the treatise of sex, reaped great rewards by praising humans;
o they also ‘nicely’ laughed a lot, looking at those great devotees of Lord - experts in the treatise of devotion.
• Is it justifiable to enjoy the fun by equating Your true devotees in this World, and those who are utter slaves to lust etc?

Is it possible to determine what Aro/Avaro SP Ramah is using?
Perhaps LGJ can clarify if someone has the access...
