The transliteration in English of the actual songs is given on the left side while, corresponding translation in poetry form is on the right. This is followed by the significance and author's own interpretation of the song. The reasons for writing this book are multifold, including enhancing the access of the works of Purandara Dasa to the wider section of people. As many readers would know, these kritis, composed in Kannada (a regional language in the state of Karnataka in India) are sung in most concerts given in Carnatic Classical style of music. This book enables the artists to read the lyrics accurately, interpret, and understand their meanings as well. Although there are several people who have interpreted these lyrics, the author has tried to preserve the beauty of the diction as far as possible since she wanted the possibility of singing the transliterations as well, like the original form in the verses.

Download or read book Evensong written by Gerry LaFemina and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This anthology, Evensong, is a celebration of the rich spiritual tapestry that is contemporary American religious experience. If this book is flawed recall that to be spiritual is to have faith even when one doubts, to see the flaws yet find belief. "When I write poetry, I try to give myself over to the sublime, to that which is great within, to that which knows what I don�t know I know. When I participate in the writing life, I try to be giving to that which has given to me. And, let�s face it, being a poet in America sometimes feels like taking a vow of poverty! But it also provides a community of others who share a belief in the power of poetry to be redemptive, to change the moral, emotional or spiritual landscapes if only for a brief moment. "Please consider this anthology a meeting house: not everyone has shown up to services, but they�re all here in spirit." from "Introduction" by Gerry LaFemina

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A cross-cultural encyclopedia of the most significant holy people in history, examining why people in a wide range of religious traditions throughout the world have been regarded as divinely inspired. The first reference on the subject to span all the world's major religions, Holy People of the World: A Cross-Cultural Encyclopedia examines the impact of individuals who, through personal charisma and inspirational deeds, served both as glorious examples of human potential and as envoys for the divine. Holy People of the World contains nearly 1,100 biographical sketches of venerated men and women. Written by religious studies experts and historians, each article focuses on the basic question: How did this person come to be regarded as holy? In addition, the encyclopedia features 20 survey articles on views of holy people in the major religious traditions such as Islam, Buddhism, and African religions, as well as 64 comparative articles on aspects of holiness and veneration across cultures such as awakening and conversion experiences, heredity, gender, asceticism, and persecution. Whether exploring by religion, culture, or historic period, this extensively cross-referenced resource offers a wealth of insights into one of the most revealing—and least explored—common denominators of spiritual traditions.

Download or read book The Search for the Reason why written by Tom L. Kryss and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T.L. Kryss is an outsider's outsider and as sweet a poet as I've ever encountered. He was part of the Cleveland poetry scene in the Sixties that had d.a. levy as its catalyst and got hammered hard by the police�What Tom Kryss does, more than any poet I know, is strip away excess and cut to the bone. He staked out a modest turf and then hunkered down and stayed there. So that what he writes is unencumbered and fraught with the particular, which is the unique, which is the only way to get a handle on the universal. What he writes always gives you something and never takes anything away. -John Bennett (Vagabond Press, from the �Introduction�) ---------- It is heartening to see Bottom Dogs Press join in the effort to preserve the masterpieces that got lost in the 20th Century's howls and whimpers, juvenile boasts and frostbitten theories. Tom Kryss is a poet who sees the world as puzzles within puzzles. The puzzles can be Rubic's cubes or jigsaw pieces that form an image of the Berlin Wall or the boundless energy of a little girl who can't remain confined in her grandfather's lap when they visit her father in prison. Kryss' narratives and parables include some of the best most open descriptions of the mimeo revolution yet written, and memories of his friend and mentor, d.a.levy. As a poet completely free from pretension, trendiness, and poses, Kryss' verse achieves a cleanliness which many of his contemporaries strove for but could not manage. Line after well paced and modulated line offers fascinating stories and meditations without strain or waste. In one of the many odd twists of fortune that surround the neglect of this opus, Kryss may be the supreme master of patience when that gift has been nearly forgotten. Aside from the satisfactions of reading Kryss' poems, he may be giving his readers a model of how to talk to each other. -Karl Young
Download or read book PURANDARA DASARU written by Smt. Rajeshwari Krishna and published by Sapna Book House (P) Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-05-11 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purandara Dasa systematized the method of teaching Carnatic music which is followed to the present day. He introduced the raga Mayamalavagowla as the basic scale for music instruction and fashioned series of graded lessons such as swaravalis, janti swaras, alankaras, lakshana geetas, prabandhas, ugabhogas, daatu varase, geeta, sooladis and kritis. Another of his important contributions[citation needed] was the fusion of bhava, raga, and laya in his compositions. Purandara Dasa was the first[citation needed] composer to include comments on ordinary daily life in song compositions. He used elements of colloquial language for his lyrics. He introduced folk ragas into the mainstream, setting his lyrics to tunes/ragas of his day so that even a common man could learn and sing them. He also composed a large number of lakshya and lakshana geetas, many of which are sung to this day. His sooladis are musical masterpieces and are the standard for raga lakshana. Scholars attribute the standardization of varna mettus entirely to Purandara Dasa.
