Vaishanav: A follower of Vaishnav school of Hinduism. Strict
vegetarianism, ahimsa simplicity are the hallmarks of a true vaishnav. The
Bhajan is in essence a "definition" of "vaishnav".

. Râma Kodanda Râma
Râma Kodanda Râma Râma Pattabhi Râma
Râma Kalyana Râma Raghava

Râma Nidokka Mata Râma Nakokka Muta
Râma Ni Pate Pata Râma Ni Bate Bata || Râma ||

"O Râma! Your every utterance is abundle of wealth to me,
O Râma! only Your song is (the best) song, only Your path is (the best) path"

Râma Nikevaru Jodu Râma Nikanta Judu
Râma Nenu Nivadu Râma Nato Matadu || Râma ||

"O Râma! who is Your match (nobody)! look after me,
O Râma! I am Yours, talk to me"

Râma Namame Melu, Svami Chintane Chalu
Svami Namame Melu, Râma Chintane Chalu
Ni Chintane Chalu, Ni Namame Melu
Râma Namame Melu, Râma Chintane Chalu || Râma ||

"Only Râma's name is beneficial, thought of Svami is itself enough
Only Svami's name is beneficial, thought of Râma is itself enough
Your thought is itself enough, only Your name is beneficial
Only Râma's name is beneficial, thought of Râma is itself enough"

RAM Bhajana Bina Sukha Shanthi Nahi
Hari Nama Bina Ananda Nahi
Prema Bhakti Bina Uddhara Nahi
Guru Seva Bina Nirvana Nahi
RAM Bhajana Bina Sukha Shanthi Nahi
Japa Dhyana Bina Sanyoga Nahi
Prabhu Darshan Bina Sanyoga Nahi
Prabhu Darshan Bina Pragnana Nahi
Daya Dharma Bina Satkarma Nahi
Bhagawan Bina Koi Apana Nahi
RAM Nama Bina PaRâmatma Nahi

Without singing the glory of Lord RAM one cannot achieve any peace. It is not possible to realise bliss without worshipping Lord Hari. Without love and devotion how can one get liberated? It is not possible to attain the state of Nirvana (Mukti or Salvation) without serving the Divine Preceptor. Without engaging in the recitation of the Lord's name and meditating on Him, there cannot be any union with Him. The vision 'Darshan' of the Lord will endow one with Supreme Wisdom. Those deeds which are suffused with Love and Compassion are Righteous and Truthful Deeds. Except for God nobody belongs to us. The Supreme Lord is none other than Lord RAM

Chanda Kirana Kula Mandala Râma
Chanda Kirana Kula Mandana Râm
Srimad Dasaratha Nandana Râm
Kausalya Sutha Vardhana Râm
Viswamitra Priyadhana Râm


This is a prayer to Râma who descended from the same lineage as the Sun; He is the son of Dasaratha; a delight for Kausalya, His mother, a beloved treasure of Viswamitra (Guru).



Govinda Gopala Prabhu Giridhari
Govinda Gopala Hrudaya Vihari
Nanda Kishora Navanita Chora
Parthi Vihara Bada Chitta Chora
Hrudaya Vihara Bada Chitta Chora
Worship Lord Govinda, Gopala, and Giridhari, the Indweller of our hearts. Chant the name of the Lord, the loving prince of Nanda, who is fond of stealing butter (stealing and winning the hearts of devotees), and now he's manifested and incarnated as the Lord of Parthi.

Heer Krishna, als kind tilde U de Govardhana-berg op om de dorpelingen en hun vee te beschermen tegen een noodweer. U beschermt ons allen en U woont in ons hart. Heer Krishna, drager van de berg, U schenkt allen en alles vreugde. Zoon van Nanda, als kind bracht U de gopi's in verrukking door hun boter (hun harten) te stelen. Machtige hartendief, U woont in Puttaparthi en ons ons hart.

Govinda = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: de Heer die de koeien, de jiva's (individuele zielen), de aarde en de zintuigen vreugde schenkt. Speelt Krishna op zijn fluit, dan huilen de koeien van geluk; ziet een moeder de jonge Krishna, dan raakt zij vervuld van moederliefde; zien de gopi's Krishna, dan raken zij in extase; enz. Gopal(a) = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: de hoeder van koeien of de beschermer van jiva's (individuele zielen), de beschermer van de aarde, en: de Heer die de zintuigen beheerst, die onze zintuigen in goede banen leidt. Prabhu = Heer. Giridhari = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: de Heer die de berg draagt. De Govardhana-berg werd door Krishna opgetild, zodat de bevolking van Brindavan er tijdens een noodweer onder kon schuilen. Hridaya, Hrudaya = het hart als de zetel van God. Vihari, Vihar(a) = inwoner, bewoner; rondlopen. Nanda = de pleegvader van Krishna. Kumara = kind, zoon, prins. Navanitachora = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: boterdief. Als kind bracht Hij de gopi's in verrukking en verwarring door hun boter te stelen. Melk is het symbool van onze liefde, die wordt gezuiverd wanneer zij wordt geofferd aan God. Het karnen is het zuiveringsproces. Het resultaat is zuivere toewijding, de boter, die door God wordt aanvaard ('gestolen'). Parthi = Puttaparthi. Bada = groot, machtig. Chittachora = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: hartendief.
Govinda Krishna Jai

Victory to Lord Krishna, Gopala. Victory to the Lord of the cowherders and the Lord of Radha. Victory to Lord Krishna, who wears garlands offered by the Gopis (devotees) and who is the Indweller in the heart of Mira (devotee). Victory to the enchanting Flute-Player, Lord Krishna. Victory to Thee, O Lord Krishna.

Glorie zij U, Krishna, Heer van Radha, schenker van vreugde en beschermer van de aarde. Glorie zij U, Krishna. Glorie zij U! Glorie zij U, Heer van Radha, die als kind de koeien hoedde en die onze zielen beschermt. Fluitspeler Krishna, geliefde hartendief, U draagt de bloemenkrans die de gopi's hebben gemaakt, U woont in het hart van moeder Mira en U brengt onze geest in vervoering, o allerliefste Heer. Glorie zij U, Krishna. Gloerie zij U! Glorie zij U, Krishna, die dezelfde is als Râma. Glorie zij U, kind Krishna, Radha's Heer.

Bal(a) = jong, kind; kracht, macht. Radha = de grootste toegewijde van Krishna. Zij is de meest bekende van de gopi's en zij is de belichaming van de extase die het gevolg is van totale overgave aan God. Gopika, Gopi = (koe)herderinnetje. Mala = krans, bloemenkrans, bloemslinger. Hari = een naam voor God in het algemeen en voor Vishnu en Krishna in het bijzonder, die betekent: de Heer die onze harten steelt. Pyari, Pyare = geliefd, zeer dierbaar. Mayi = moeder. Mira (Bai) = een groot toegewijde van Krishna uit de 16e eeuw, die haar liefde voor hem bezong in zelf geschreven liederen. Mana, Manas(a) = geest, gedachten, het denken; het spirituele hart. Vihari, Vihar(a) = inwoner, bewoner; rondlopen, wandelen, vreugdevol rondgaan. Madana = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: allerliefst, verrukkelijk; een naam voor de God van de wereldse liefde; liefde. Mohana = betoverend, in vervoering brengend; een naam voor Râma en Krishna, die betekent: de Heer die (de geest) betovert en in vervoering brengt. Muralidhari, Muralidhara = een naam voor Krishna, die betekent: drager van de fluit. Murali = de fluit van Krishna. De holle fluit is het symbool van het hart dat gezuiverd is van alle verlangens en dat daardoor een geschikt instrument is geworden voor het spel van de Heer. Râm(a) = de Avatar van de treta yuga (het treta-tijdperk). Hij was de belichaming van sathya (waarheid) en dharma (gerechtigheid). Zijn naam betekent letterlijk: verrukking, bron van alle vreugde

AISI LAGI LAGAN by Meera Bai
AISI LAGI LAGAN, MEERA HO GAYI MAGAN
So deep is this attachment ( to Krishna)
that Meera has become completely absorbed in it
(alt.. Like this it happened, that Mira became one-pointed)

WO TO GALI-GALI HARI GUNA GANNE LAGI
Singing the praises of Krishna down every street

MEHLO MEIN PALI, BAN KE JOGUN CHALI
She was born and groomed in Palaces,
but now she has become a devotee of Krishna (Yogini)

MEERA RANI DIVANI KAHANE LAGI
People speak as if Meera has gone mad.


AISI LAGI LAGAN, MEERA HO GAYI MAGAN >>>x2


1) KOI ROKE NAHI, KOI TOKE NAHI
Nobody could stop her; nobody could interrupt her

MEERA GOVINDA GOPAL-e GANNE LAGI
Meera is singing of Krishna (Govind / Gopal)

BAITHI SANTON KE SANG, RANGI MOHAN KE RANG
Sitting in the company of Saints and Sages,
Meera became dyed in the color of Krishna (Mohan)

Meera, the Lover, has merged into the Beloved

2) RANA NE VISH DIYA, MANO AMRIT PIYA
The King, her husband, gave her poison
Which she drank as nectar

MEERA SAGAR MEIN SARITA SAMANE LAGI
Meera is like the river that has merged into the ocean

DUKH-e LAKHON SAHE, MUKSE GOVIND KAHE
Meera bore the pain of hundreds of thousands of sufferings
But could only speak the name of Krishna (Govind)

MEERA GOVINDA GOPAL-e GANNE LAGI
Meera is singing of Krishna (Govind / Gopal)
