I noticed your description has four faces, whereas the wikipedia description is five faced,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vamadeva
As per shaivAgama's kAraNAgama there are five forms of shiva:

1. sadyOjAtAmUrti @ West, four faced in white color.
2. vAmadEvamUrti @ North, four facesd in golden color.
3. aGOramUrti @ South, four faced in blue color.
4. tatpuruShamUrti @ East, four faced in golden color.
5. IshAnamUrti @ northeast, Five faced in white color.

As you can see, only IshAnamUrti is endowed with five faces.

I have discussed 81 kRtis so far, out of oDeyar's 94. The list is here (thanks to Meena;s meticulous efforts)

Click here to download List of oDeyar kRtis discussed.rtf

Can someone post the list of kRtis NOT discussed yet? It will help Raja Chandra/myself/coolkarn or anyone else to ferret out those compostions for discussion next.

DRS,
Is it 'SrI ramAmanOhari ll'?

I can't wait for your discussion:

Again, this seems to be addressed to the divine mother in all of her forms: rAjESwarI/hara dEhArdhAnga vAsasthE (pArvatI), vAgISwari/saraswati, as well as 'kshIrasAgara mathnOdbhavE'(lakshmi)....

garuDadhvani is a sampUrNa- auDava upAnga janya of the 29th mELa, dhIra SankarAbharaNa. The scale is

SR2G3M1PD2N3S* | S*D,PG,RS ||

Its scale is essentially the reverse of bilahari. M and N are prominent and are elongated often. In the avarOhaNa, D and G are sung with a jAru from above which helps bring out the rAgabhAva and also makes it easy to sing. The rAga is not particularly easy to sing. It is a lively rAga and evokes hAsyarasa. It sounds like kannaDa in places.The rAga appears to have been brought to light by tyAgarAja thorugh his 2 compositions- "AnandasAgaram" and "tattvameruga taramA".

oDeyar has handled the rAga well with an elaborate kRti and tALa.

And now for some recordings

SrIkarasthaLavAsini
I think has a vishEShArtham. 'sthalavAsin' denotes 'sthaladEvatA' or the local deities or the grAmadEvatA. It is customary to have 'durgA' (rAjarAjEshvaari) as the guardin of roadside (sthala) as well as villages. shrIkara of course means her prowess of rendering the place auspicious.

as Shankar has stated, JC appears to have unified durga,lakShmi,sarasvatI!

Thanks RC for the clarification! (Do you have the pictures with the defining shloka for the other forms too? Pl post!

The Bilahari comes out nicely out of the garuDadhvani.

TKR's "tattvameruga" is very nice. It clearly brings out the "Western lilt" to this rAga. IMO, oDeyar has explored this rAga and taken it further than has. Also, inspite of his western music leanings, this kRti of oDeyar's is very karNATaka sangIta. Also, "tattvameruga" is more western than AnandasAgaram

Part 1 of Notes on bhaja gOvindam

Alternatively, kuvalaya can be split as ku+valaya meaning the "wicked/bad lot". This too leads to the same meaning. On a more personal level, it can refer to the difficulties or travails arising from wicked friends/bad company.

I think 'kuvlayApiDAMtakam' here used as anvartha nAma for Krishna refering to the episode of killing of the elephant called kuvalayApIDa in Mathura, when he goes to Mathura from Brindavana.

The word here is kuvalayapIDA and not kuvalayApIDa.

But yes that is also one of the possible interpretations if we overlook the hrasva/dIrgha difference.

Do they? To me it sounds like they sing "kuvalayapIDa" only although they pause after "kuvalaya".

Sri Krishna and his brother Balarama, had to pass through many a peril when they were brought to Mathura, the capital of King Kamsa to be slain. One such was the royal elephant Kuvalaya­peeda which was driven furiously on them. On that occasion, it is said that Krishna dances a wonderful dance when he pulled out the tusks of the maddened beast and struck it dead.

I think kuvalaya pIdAMtakaM in the sahitya is to this episode !

Raja Chandra & ramakriya.
your points ae taken. As I stated earlier, some of the phrases offer themselves to many explanations. This indeed is the beauty of sanskrit and oDeyar's handling of it.

My point was only about the hrasva vs dIrgha akAra in here. The interpretation I have given will hold good whether the akAra is hrasva(laghu) or dIrgha(guru). ApIDa also means "hurting/causing pain". So kuvalayapIDA as well as kuvalayApIDa will both give rise to the meaning that I have given. No doubt oDeyar also had the elephant episode in mind as the kRti deals with kRShNa and many of his daring exploits.

kuvalaya = blue lotus
pIDA = a garland for the head
antaka = border/boundary
kuvalayapIDAntakam = to him who wears a garland of bluelotus bordering his head

bhUpALapancama is a upAnga janya of the 39th mELa- dhAli varALi or jhAla varALi.
It is a vakra rAga. niSHAda is absent. Its scale is

SG1R1GM2PD1S* | S*PDMGRS ||

This is another rAga brought to light by oDeyar. Without his kRti, it would have been a mere scale in treatises. Several variant scales are mentioned for this rAga in R.R.Keshavamurthy's book. Although it can be placed under any of the first 3 mELas of the 7th (RShi) cakra, tradition places it under the 39th.

The rAga has an overwhelming stamp of SOka rasa. There is a hint of adbhuta when one jumps from dhaivata to ShaDja and back to the pancama below.

As I mentioned intially, the layout of sAhitya vis-a-vis tALa is noteworthy in the kRti. The kRti starts as dESAdi tALa. The successive caraNas however start earlier on the tALa. The last caraNa starts on the sama and merges with the pallavi. oDeyar has done similarly in some other kRtis like "kamalAmbikE mAmava sadA" in nATa.

oDeyar humbly states that the rAga is inspired by the protagonist of the song- kRShNa. he does not claim the well-deserved glory himself.

May be he was conscious of the fact that he belongs to yaduvaMsha of lord kRuShNa and thus proudly attributes inspiration to his progenitor!

Note the line in the kRti. bhUpAlapancama prErakam.

Thanks lakshman. is that a lakShaNagIte from sangraha cUDAmaNi and the tALa too(apart from the composer :) ? The words sound like it.

RC
The dynasty was established by Vijaya, who by some accounts came to Mysore from Dwaraka. Vijaya took on the name Yaduraya and ruled Mysore, then a small town, from 1399 to 1423
The above quote suggests that he is indirectly complimenting his ancestor.

Also 'bhUpAla pancama' means the fifth king who is (counting backwards)
(Mummudi) Krishnaraja Wodeyar III

Anything special about him?

Are the oDeyars yAdavAs?

Its the same few of us that get to do things. It would be appreciable if others would take more interest and show more enthusiasm, if not intiative.

rAga: lalitapancama ; AditALa


nAgalinga kuNDalISahitE
nAgalinga is oDeyar's guru in SrIvidyA. And that guru is kuNDalISa meaning the master of the kuNDalini vidye/yOga. And she is ever benevolent toward him(hitE).

kalAkhyA savilAsA ca khyAtA kAmakalEti sA || (tripurA siddhAnta)


At the very heart of the bindu or centre of the SrIyantra is that which caused it to emanate. This is kAmakalA, consisting of the three bindus or potentials. One is red, one is white, and one is mixed. The red bindu is ova, the white bindu semen, and the mixed bindu the union of Siva-Sakti, the individual as potential SrIcakra.

I know there have been some differences in the number of kRtis that people have come up with. And the mArgahindOLa kRti is in the list too (only in name according to Sukanya Prabhakar). But since then it has been unearthed. So if you have the recording, lets discuss it. Now to find out which is the extra one. BTW I sent you an email.
