I shall always regret the fact that I skipped these performances by Dr.S Ramnathan , while making choices..

Wonder if there are more recordings available of these performances.I remember there used to be more themes "CM for the Layman" etc

Mercifully , recordings like these bring back some cheer. ;)

The lives of great devotees reveal to us that the soul in every one of us is the stage where spiritual triumph or submission to worldly attachments is played. The birth of Tyagaraja and his career of vairagya is an example of the former and the latter is our incapacity to get over the snares of fear, greed, ambition, vanity, envy and pride.
no wonder so many chaps get worked up with SVK .:D

In one of the krithis in Prahlada Bhakthi Vijayam Thyagaraja pays his tributes to Purandara dasa. Can someone tell me which krithi this is? I found one link on the net but I could not read the lyrics since the fonts were not being displayed correctly.

Thank u.

Sridevi

In case you can access the link, here is the website that mentions the krithi.

http://www.geocities.com/vipanchee/sanskrit.html

PP:
Tyagaraja pays his respectful tributes to devotees in his matchless jewel, "Endaro Mahanubhavulu". Specific mention to haridasas is found in his Yamunakalyani kriti, "Haridasulu vedale". We also find his expression of regard for Sangita Pitamaha in the invocatory passages of "Prahlada Bhakti Vijayam".

Êirt ìatmule‘nu bidmaceRif hirgu[mul bafucunepufun!

I contemplate on the glory of Purandaradasa, who sings the divine attributes of Hari, which remove all evils.

SriDevi,
AFAIK there is no Thyagaraja Kriti wherein he mentions Sri Purandara Dasa by name. He has mentioned Bhadrachala Rama Dasu by name in some kritis. However, As you have brought out, in the Introduction to the Prahlada Bhakti Vijayam, he mentions specifically Purandara Dasa. The Lines are as under -

durita vrAtamul(e)llanu badi mArceDi hari guNamula bADucun(e)puDun
paravazuDai velayu purandara dAsuni mahimamulanu dalaceda madilOn

The meaning is as given in your post.
PS : Only the English part of the webpage is readable.

I beg to differ. I am giving hereunder the word-by-word meaning. Here 'purandara' means 'indra'. IMHO, Sri tyAgarAja would not mention 'purandara' unreverentially to Sri Purandara Dasa.

C7 For whatever I have said,
hanuman (vAdu) (literally he) – one who, having been enamoured (kAmiJci) by You, holds (baTTukonu) Your (nIdu) Lotus (kamalamula) Feet (pAda) in his hands (karamula) with overflowing (mIra) love (prEma) – is a witness (sAkSi);
Lord ziva – the resident (sadanuDu) of kailAsa - the enjoyer (rasikuDu) of the name (nAma) of Lord zrI rAma– is a witness (sAkSi); further (mariyu),
those important persons (mukhyulu) like sages nArada, parAzara, zuka, zaunaka, indra (purandara), pArvatI – daughter of himavAn – the mountain (naga) (nagajA) and sItA – daughter of Earth (dhara) (dharaja) are witnesses (sAkSi) – aren’t they (gAda)?
O Lord (Iza) of all that is beautiful (sundara) (sundarEza)! O Lord comfortably (sukha) resident (vAsa) in the Ocean (ambudhi) of Milk, churning which the pitcher (kalaza) (kalazAmbudhi) of nectar emerged!
O Lord wearing golden attire! the more those who have sought refuge in You (AzritulakE) (vAsAzritulakE) behold You, the more it is sweet.

adrija vinutuDu - these words IMHO, you are probably referring from 'nanu brOvamani ceppavE' kriti. According to the following website, where this kRti is listed, the word is 'adrija'. Here, this word means 'pArvati'.
http://www.engr.mun.ca/~adluri/telugu/c ... adasu.html

Regarding your query, 'why does rAmadAsa sing', I may only explain that according to phala stuti of viSNu sahasra nAma, it is Siva who initiates pArvati in the tAraka nAma.

The same view can also seen in purandara dAsa's 'rAma mantrava japisO' where he says 'sOmashEkhara tanna bhAminigorahida' (the mantra that was taught by Shiva to his wife).

This excerpt is of particular interest:
"Simply because Tyagaraja was a great bhakta, his music is not bhakti music. The fact that Wordsworth wrote about flowers does not make him a botanist. If Tyagaraja was a bhakti composer , he would only have written bhajans. I would go so far as to say that if Tyagaraja had not written music, we would not be talking about him today, and he would be remembered as a minor saint."

Thyagaraja -
inta saukhyamani nE jeppa jAla
entO(y)EmO(y)evariki telusunO
dAnta sItA kAnta karuNA
svAnta prEmAdulakE telusunu gAni
MD -
Thus we get an indirect confirmation from Dikshitar of the fact that he was a jivan mukta.

But why go for indirect inferences? After all , does he not declare in joy:
‘chid guruguha EvAham’
‘sacchidAnanda paripUrNa brahmAsmi’
‘nityAnanda rUpOsmi brahmAnanda rUpOsmi’

‘I am verily that guruguha who is the personification of knowledge’
‘I am that Brahman, who is in the nature of Truth-Knowledge-Bliss & who is complete’
‘I am the personification of perpetual bliss, the bliss of brahman’

Thus far about Dikshitar – the Mukta.
http://sky.prohosting.com/guruguha/dinown.html
It is a pity that our elders did not get certification of William J. Jackson to declare persons like Thyagaraja and MD to be jIvan mukta.
minor saint
- probably not eligible for voting rights!

Again all this per Hindu Philosophy (or my interpretation of it):

IMHO those words of dIkshitar and tyAgarAja apply to each one of us i.e. the "real us". Whether we truly realize it or not is the difference between a saint and not a saint. But those words are the ultimate higher truth. Anyone can "know" what is the truth and say it and sing it, it does not immediate mean direct reference/evidence that they lived it. If someone who didnt live it (say a sinner) says it, and we get offended, then it only means we arent living it either :)

There is a huge difference between "knowing it and believing it" vs "living it". To bridge that difference takes a lifetime for most of us. To get from "not knowing it at all" to "knowing it and believing it" is much easier, and can mislead us to think "we are half-way there and we are somehow better off than most ignorannt folks", but it only means we have just about to begin the training for that ultimate race.

In case it is not clear, I am not saying that MD and tyAgarAja didnt truly realize the truth at all. I am just implying taking selective words from a song (particularly in the context CM genre) to imply evidence or direct/indirect reference is not a good approach. You have to look at their life in this matter - that is the only thing that matters.

Besides does it matter if tyAgarAja (or MD or SS) was a saint or not? Would these words inspire you less if they are still the higher truth as you believe it? Those words speak for themselves irrespective of whose heart they sprung from!

Shri Govindan - not sure what you are trying to say here. The 'minor saint' quote is from Pattabhi Raman. He is saying the music is what makes Tyagaraja a saint.
Can you please provide the meaning to the 'inta saukhyamani' song.

Also, do you have the meaning for 'Dvaitamu sukhama'. Thank you.

arun,
chid guruguha EvAham’
‘sacchidAnanda paripUrNa brahmAsmi’
‘nityAnanda rUpOsmi brahmAnanda rUpOsmi’
taking selective words from a song ... to imply evidence or direct/indirect reference is not a good approach. You have to look at their life in this matter - that is the only thing that matters.
If you imply that MD wrote this words in kRti without living - nay becoming it, then, by the same yardstick, every one of the upanishads and zrImad-bhagavad-gIta, teaching of rAmakriSna paramahamsa, vivEkAnanda, ramaNa mahaRSi are mere intellectual verbiage. The famous kRti of Sadasiva Brahmendra 'khElati PiNDANDE hamsas sOham sOham hamsamiti' is also verbiage.

In the kRti, 'sarasIruhAna' - mukhAri, Sri Thyagaraja states -
brahmam(ai)na mATala nErcukoni baragEr(a)yya
"people flourish by leaning words connected with brahman (Supreme Lord)". These words, probably may be applied to persons like me - who talk intellectually - but not to MD and Sri Thyagaraja. Let us not belittle ourselves by trying to evaluate them.

jayaram,
In one of my earlier postings I have said that 'had Sri tyAgarAja not been qualified in music, he would still have become jIvan mukta'; I further added that music was only a means to his 'realisation'. If Mr. Pattabhiraman says that 'the music is what makes Thyagaraja a saint', then he does not know what bhakti and jnAna means - let him go through 'nArada bhakti sUtras' and Srimad Bhagavad Gita. They don't mention a single word about music as a means of liberation. Nadopasana - is another form of bhakti as defined in Srimad Bhagavat Gita - a microcosmic approach.
Regarding the meanings of the kRtis, I shall send these separately.

vgvindan, you missed my point. The question to ask is what makes you think MD lived it, and iif somebody else (say a modern composer) were to say it that he or she didnt it? Do you believe MD, tyAgarAja etc. as a saints just by their words or by how they lived? If I may presume, based on their life (as sincere bhakthas, and stories about their lifes) is what many consider them to be uplifted spiritually and they are considered saints. If they werent to compose a single song, people around them may have still consiidered them as such (but history may not have remembered them and wewould be talking about them on rasikas.org). So I repeat - the only thing it matters is how you live up to the ideals.

If we think these words are mere intelllectual verbiage, then are we really trying to understand the meaning of these words or are we simply paying attention who is saying them? Evaluating these words as such based on who says them only reflects our inadequacies.
Let us not belittle ourselves by trying to evaluate them.
But are we belittling not only ourselves but our idols also by making jingoistic defenses on their behalf? These composers' stance in history does not change an iota because someone praises them to heavens, or "evaluates them". Thinking otherwise only reflects our insecurities.

Although i will add this. If the words of a composer speak a lot and we dont have (as) much information about his/her life, IMO it is not only perfectly reasonable but also healthy to take it that he/she did live by those words.

But again, we if we believe those words and thus believe the composer attained spiriitual enlightenment, it shouldnt really matter what others think. Should it? But then again us to feel that way is easier said than done. All of us would like universal agreement on the dearest of our views. I am certainly included in this :).

There are sides of Tyagaraja that people overlook, or choose to overlook, or start trying to justify. Once you start trying to justify something, then you are really doing injustice. Because that shows insecurity in being able to app reciate him for what he was. So you try to build a wall around him, of stories. They don't need it
(by Sri Ravi Kiran)
http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl1616/16160960.htm

Today I have posted a kRti of Sri tyAgarAja 'nOrEmi' - varALi. http://www.rasikas.org/wiki/noremi I request viewers to go through the same.

Sri Thyagaraja's kRtis were addressed to the Lord. He has laid bare his life before Sri Rama. This and such kritis which Sri Ravi Kiran quotes, like 'nAdupai', are all addressed to the Lord.

They say the communication between the patient and the physician and the client and the advocate are privileged communication. Similarly, a person might communicate to his friend in confidence about his inner secrets. If that person goes about bragging what he knows about his friend or if the physician tells the world what his patient is suffering from or if the advocate tells the world what the true position of his client is, will anyone ever have confidence in such persons? If such acts are not blasphemous, what else?

Those, including Sri Ravikiran and Sri Pattabhiraman and Mr Willian J Jackson, should first place their inner secrets before the public and then start commenting on the 'human side' of Sri Tyagaraja. There has to be level playing field.

We are all diabolical in our life - one face of us is completely hidden from public and the other - sweet face which we show to this world. How dare we comment on the 'human side' of Sri Thyagaraja when 'human side' of the commentator is totally hidden from public. Let these be also revealed.

People like Sri Thyagaraja and Mahatma Gandhi opened up themselves to the public and therefore, open to ridicule. In fact, I am doubtful whether these and other kritis, reading which these people dare to comment about him, were in fact meant to be sung by anyone other than Sri Thyagaraja. How these kritis came into usage, needs to be gone into.

Sri Ravikiran and - also Arun - thinks that I am justifying Sri Thyagaraja. How dare I do so? He does not need any crutch - particularly from a person like me. By the same token, are people like Sri Ravikiran and Mr Pattabhiraman who read the kritis of Sri Thyagaraja addressed to the Lord, which were strictly personal and comment on them, are justified to do so? If they are justified, then where is the level playing field?

Mr Pattabhiraman says -
Simply because Tyagaraja was a great bhakta, his music is not bhakti music.
May I ask him, if the Thyagaraja kritis were not bhakti music, what was it? I am not a musician. I have been delighted by going through his kritis. My approach had been totally bhakti based. Such irreverential statements about Sri Thyagaraja only makes one to think that the commentator either does not know about Sri Thyagaraja or he lacks bhakti.

nOrEmi?

This kind of self-depreciation is called Atma-garhaNa or NaicchyanusandhAnam-
Professor Saambhamurthy describes the mental state of
NaicchyanusandhAnam of the Saint this way : " The sahityam reflects
the pathetic state of mind and the penitent mood the composer
had at that time . The sahitya is confessional in tone ; but the fact is
ThyagarAjA never committed the sins enumerated therein . Indirectly ,
it is provided as a lesson to others to desist from committng such sins .
http://www.ramanuja.org/sv/bhakti/archi ... /0112.html

These come under the category of 'sancAri bhAvAs' of a bhakta as defined by Dr. V Raghavan in his Introductory Thesis to the book 'The Spiritual Heritage of Tyagaraja' by Sri C Ramanujachariar. The list is reproduced in the site -

vgvindan,

you have made valid points (always have) but for some other points, IMO there are very valid counterpoints that can be offered. But i dont see anything fruitful coming out in me doing so as i feel that your convictions are stronger :) So i will leave things as is.

I will only clarify that I wasnt implying you were "justifying tyAgaraja".

Shri Govindan - Can you point us to the meaning of these songs? If I understood the 'Dvaitamu Sukhama' song right, Tyagaraja is addressing which of the two is superior (dvaita or advaita) and then leaves the question unanswered in this song.

I think it is "naakaja, dharaja mukhyulu" - the phrase to be taken in its entirety.

naakaloka is swargam.

so the above phrase would mean the chief among the immotals (gods/demigods - children of heaven) and the mortals(humans or earth-born)

it is not unimaginable for parvati and or siva to praise lord rama.

adrija vinutudu was also given another meaning by someone i know (kinda). adrija was interpreted as ahalya by him. but I prefer to understand it as parvati.

It is indeed Ahalya. Ramadasa refers to her as adrija in other keertanas also.

I have my doubts about if adrija refer to ahalya. I think it refers to pArvati. adrija vinutuDu may just mean that he whom pArvati prays to... specially in times of trouble like in the episode with bhasmAsura. Also in Vishanu sahasranAma, and many other texts such as adhyAtma rAmayaNa keerthanas of Munipalle Subrahmanya kavi, pArvati is said to have asked of shiva to elaborate on the rAma mantra and rAmAyaNa. All the adhyAtma rAmAyaNa keerthanas are written as conversations between shiva and pArvati - where pArvati asks questions about rAmAyaNa and shiva tells the story. So there is a high chance that pArvati prays to rAma and hence adrija vinutuDu refers to rAma - whom pArvati prays to.

IMHO 'adrija' would refer only to pArvati. However chetana maintains that it refers to ahalya. Probably because ahalya was lying as a rock, and later transformed to her original form, she is referred as 'adrija' (adri - rock).
As per popular notion, ahalyA was lying as a rock; however, vAlmIki rAmAyaNa says that sage gautama cursed her to be ‘lying on ashes’ (bhasma zAyinI). Even Sri tyAgarAja refers as 'dArini Silaiyai' - which means 'as a rock on the way'.
There seems to be no other proof to associate ahalya with the epithet 'adrija'. In the whole of tyAgarAja kRtis, there is no mention of ahalya as 'adrija'.
As regards, Bhadrachala Ramadas kRtis, I am not sure.

Though a long shot 'adrijA' = mountain-born could also refer to shabari..

This article talks mostly about Walajapet Venkataramana Bhagavatar. But there's mention of 30 disciples of Tyagaraja. Do we know who they were (other than the more famous 3-4)?

And this quote: "It was on the Pushya bahula panchami day that Thyagaraja breathed his last. It is fortunate that Thyagaraja's precious personal items have been preserved even to this day!"
Where are these personal items kept? In Thiruvaiyaru at his home? Or somewhere else?

Some of the idols that T used were still kept in his ancestral home in Tiruvaiyaru at least until I saw them 2 years ago there before the demolition started for renovation. I am sure they are securely held somewhere else now until the memorial is completed. I can post the picture (facade) of his home before demolition if anyone is interested.

Do please! Historical archives fromprivate individuals should be preserved! Do you have the picture of the idols too?

cmlover:
I have pictures of the interior of T's house where the idol of T himself is kept as well as some wall pictures with some faded photos of people ( I don't know who they are). The interior is rather dark. Also I have pictures of T's memorial on the banks of Cauvery, Tiruvaiyaru temple etc. I do not have the picture of idols worshipped by T since they were not kept inside the house. They may be stored elsewhere. Perhaps I can post one at a time. I had a problem before when I tried to copy and paste from my computer photo album into this site. Is there any special procedure to adopt?
