Vedic Reflections - Shri VishnusahasranAmam (Stanza 71)

This stanza is the first instance where brāhmaņah has been used. brāhmaņa as we know is a caste, but in Vedic sense brāhmaņa is not determined by birth. It is a qualification that is attained by the person who has known all the knowledge of the Vedas, regardless of the person’s caste. But sadly that meaning has changed today


ब्रह्मण्यो ब्रह्मकृत ब्रह्मा ब्रम्ह ब्रह्मविवर्धनः |
ब्रह्मविद्ब्राह्मणो ब्राह्मी ब्रह्मज्ञो ब्राह्मणप्रियः ||
 
brahmaņyo brahma-kŗd brahmā brahma brahma-vivardhanah
brahma-vid brāhmaņo brāhmī brahmajño brāhmaņapriyah

brahmaņyah
The One Who is beneficial to the Brāhmaņa (not the caste but the real Brāhmaņa, that is the person who is learned in all vedic scriptures)

brahma-kŗd
The One Who created the science and rituals for Brāhmaņa

brahmā
The One Who created everything

brahma
The One Who is the supreme truth Who cannot be known by the atheist (non believer)

brahmavivardhanah
The One Who promotes tapasya

brahma-vit
The One Who knows the true meanings of the Vedas

brāhmaņah
The One Who preaches the spiritual and true meanings of the Vedas

brāhmī
The One Who is the controller of everything related to brāhmaņa

brahmajñah
The One Who knows the Vedas, He is Himself the Vedas

brāhmaņapriyah
The One Who pleases brāhmaņa and is pleased by brāhmaņa

Krishna Nee Begane Baaro - Kannada Lyrics & Translation

By
Unveiling the Depths of "Krishna Nee Begane Baaro" Krishna Nee Begane Baaro  (Oh Krishna, Please Come) transcends the realm of a simple  Kannada devotional song . Composed by the revered saint-poet  Vyasatirtha , it offers a powerful expression of devotion and yearning for the divine presence of Lord Krishna. A Melody Steeped in Tradition: The essence of  Krishna Nee Begane Baaro  lies in its music. The melody flows serenely in  Raga Yamunakalyani , its notes reminiscent of the gentle murmur of the Yamuna River. The rhythmic pattern,  Chapu , adds a structured elegance, providing the perfect foundation for the heartfelt lyrics. Vyasatirtha, a prominent figure in the  Dvaita school of Madhvacharya philosophy , infused the song with his profound understanding of the divine. A Source of Solace: Krishna Nee Begane Baaro  resonates far beyond its cultural significance. The song's calming melody offers a sense of peace and comfort during challengin...

Mere Bina (Lyrics, English Translation)

मेरे बिना (Mere Bina) CROOK OST Music - Pritam Singer - Nikhil D'Souza Lyrics - Kumaar MY RATING - 9/10 Reflections A very romantic western number by new comer Nikhil D'Souza. Pritam has crooned Pop hits by Darius and Enrqiue alike to create a magical ballad that hooks you to its smoothness the moment the song starts. Nikhil sounds like Atif at times, but nevertheless is a promsing find!   Lyrics (English Translation) Mere Bina Rehne laga hun Teri hawaon me Behne laga hun I have started living without you... I have started floating in the breeze that you are jaane main kaise tera hua hu mujhe to lagta hai main shayad tere dil ki dua hu Haan Tujhko jo paaya ahan To jeena aaya Ab ye lamha theher jaye tham jaye bas jaye hum Dono ke darmiyaaaaan I don't know how I have become yours I think I am the boon from your heart Yea! Now that I found you...I have learnt to live Now this moment may stop here at this very moment when the two of us are together...
