Request


kaShTadallirali utkruShTadallirali eShTadaru matigeTTu irali
krushNa kruShNa endu shishTaru pELuva ashTAkshara mahAmantrada nAmada
nArAyaNa ninna nAmada smaraNeya sArAmrutavu enna nAligege barali...
-Purandara Dasa

Whether I be in trouble, or in a perfect state, be my mind ever so disordered,
Let me utter 'Krishna, Krishna', the eight-syllabled mahamantra that the learned chant
Narayana, let my tongue taste the nectar that the remembrance of your name brings
