Thanks so much, you are a life saver for me and my teacher. Actually, i'm doing my Arangetram next year and my guru was teaching me this dance but couldn't work out the lyrics properly. Thanks again!

Can anybody send me the lyrics of 'Jay suddha' toddyamangalam (taalmalika) and 'jay janaki' toddyamangalam (taalmalika) with meaning as per each word please?

Shivadaasi - a couple of pointers:

1) Please do not tack on new requests to the old ones in the same topic; create new ones for eeach new request.

2) Before you create a new topic, use the 'search' tab (in the dark-blue strip under the banner which is in a lighter shade of blue) to figure out if what you want has already been discussed.

jaya jAnaki ramaNa - the tODayamangaLam you want was discussed at length in this thread http://rasikas.org/forums/viewtopic.php? ... amana.html
