Songs of Rajanikanta Sen (5)- Ami to Tomare Chahini Jibone

Today in the fifth part of the series, I am writing about another famous composition by Rajanikanta Sen, 'Ami to tomare chahini jibone.

Ami to Tomaare Chahini Jibone

Tumi obhaagaare cheyechho

Ami na daakite hridoyo maajhaare

Nije eshe dekha diyechho

 

Chiro aadorer binimoye shokha

Chiro obohelaa peyechho

Ami dure chhute jete du haato poshaari

Dhore tene kole niyechho

 

Ami to tomare...

 

 

O pothe jeyo na fire esho bole

Kaane kaane koto koyechho

Ami tobu chole gechhi firaaye aanite

Paachhe paachhe chhute giyechho

Ami to tomare...

 

Ei chiro oporadhi paatokir bojha

Haanshi mukhe tumi boyechho

Amar nijo haate gora bipoder maajhe

(Amaye) buke kore niye royechho

Ami to tomare....

 

I have listened to the rendition by Hemanta Mukhopadhyay. Many other artists have also sung this famous song.

In this song, the poet says God's love is unconditional. He stays with us always, protects us, guides us and accepts us each time whenever we move towards Him. It is the Lord who does all our work taking away all the burden from us.

This song reminded me of two songs from Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan.

1. During the Setu Bandhan song, the lyrics are-

Har kaarajme, nij bhakton ka, haath bataa dete hain,

Haath bataa dete hain,

Baadhaaon ke saare patthar Raam hata dete hain,

Apne upar le kar unka bhaar ghataa dete hain.

2. And the other song is when Ravan attacks Vibhishan with Shakti astra and Shri Ram takes the blow of the fierce weapon upon Himself. The lyrics of that song are-

Nahi Raghuveer sa mitra koi

Nahi Prabhu sa pratipal

Mitro ke sankat sahe

Bankar unki dhaal

May our mind always dwell in the thoughts of the lotus feet of the Lord.

Jai Shri Krishna.

Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan(9)- Ram-Lakshman in Mithila

In the last post we were introduced to the Royal Family of Mithila. Now we are coming back to Shri Ram and Lakshman, who are staying with Sage Vishwamitra in the ‘aamra vatika’ of Mithila. (This scene is not there on many DVD versions of the serial). As Lakshman wants to visit the city, Shri Ram asks Vishwamitra for the permission to do so. Vishwamitra becomes very happy and appreciates Shri ram for His wisdom while expressing wishes. He tells them to go to see the city so that the people of Mithila can also be Blessed by the sight of the Lord! So they go to visit the city and started spreading Joy to all… The public became overwhelmed by looking at them. The ladies looked at them and discussed about the beauty and charm … They wish if Sita could get married to this handsome Prince, then they will be able to see him again in future, when he will come to visit the in-laws. They discuss about the valour of Shri Ram. Really a wonderful scene to experience the beauty of the Lord!! All has been said in the RCM lines which has been used in the background music- 'Dekhan nagar Bhoop suta aaye'. Here is the lyrics:-

http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1349127&TPN=122

We can very easily relate this scene with the scene from Ramanand Sagar’s another great work ‘Shri Krishna’, where Shri Krishna goes out in the neighbourhood for the first time, then also the same reaction from the public can be noticed. Here is the scene:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb4hEBiAIxE

And here are the lyrics of that song:-

http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1311014&TPN=83

Now coming back to Ramayan, in the last post we have seen that Raja Janak came to know about Sage Vishwamitra’s arrival in Mithila, so he goes to welcome him personally. They all meet and greet each other. Here is the scene:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9S2A9HPzQw&feature=related

Then Shri Ram and Lakshman comes there after their visit to the city (Mithila), and Raja Janak becomes ‘visibly moved’ while looking at Him. This is such a wonderful scene! The lines from ‘Ram Charit Manas’ as the backgroung music says it all- ‘Murati Madhur manohar dekhi, bhaye videh videh bisekhi’. As Janak was considered as an ascetic person, still, the first look at the Lord, filled him with the rapture of Bliss. Really a memorable scene!!

In the palace, the friends of Sita tells her about the beauty of Shri Ram, about His visit in Mithila, that day, Sita listens to it with rapt attention.

After that, we have one of the Great scenes of Ramayan here, this one is one of my Top Favorite scene of all!! Where Shri Ram and Lashman serves Muni Vishwamitra by pressing his feet. After that Lakshman dose the same to Shri Ram to serve Him. The song is – ‘Munivar sayan kinhi tab jaayi’. This scene is Soooo Unique in its Content that everytime I feel Emotional while watching it! It is indeed Blissful as well as it teaches us the lesson what the Lord delivers through this action, that is to Respect the Guru, the Brahmin. The Lord of the Universe serving a sage, what a great Humility from the Lord!! I am So much attached to this scene that probably I won’t be able to express it here. The music, the words as well as the way the singer has delivered the song - all combine to make the effect of a Divine experience here. This is indeed one of the highest moments of Ramayan acc to me. It takes the serial to a Great Height! Such a Pious moment experienced by the audience here!

We also have same kind of scene in RSji’s Shri Krishna also, where Krishna comes to the aashram of Gargacharya for the first time, in Mathura, after killing Kans. It also has the same effect on me as the previous one from Ramayan. The lyrics are also very nice in SK.

(Will try to post the link of the video of the scene as well as the lyrics of the sequence in future.)

So here in Ramayan, we have Shri Ram and Lakshman going to take rest for the night. Tomorrow or the day after they will attend the Swayambar of Sita, but before that we have another Wonderful sequence in Pushp Vatika, will write about it in my next post.

Jai Shri Ram!

Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan (10)- First Meeting of Siya-Ram at the Pushp Vatika

Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan (8)- Introduction of the Royal House of Mithila

Now we have the first scene in the Royal house of Mithila. We can see Raja Janak along with Rani Sunayna and Kulguru Shataanand performing a Shiv puja. Really a nice way to introduce a ‘Pious’ family. The same was done in the beginning while introducing the royal family of Ayodhya, with a prayer to Kuldevta Suryadev. Truly, Ramayana helps us to ‘connect wth the Divine Lord’ in each of its scenes. It portrays the ‘ideal way to lead our life’.

Here are the videos of this part:-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAoV8ooX1Z0&feature=related

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kP03uNzeeMQ

Coming back to Mithila- while performing the puja, we can see Sita Mata for the first time. Really really a beautiful entry. They talk about the oath of Raja Janak about ‘Shiv-Dhanu bhang’. We find that the task is really a difficult one. Rani Sunayana asks Sita to pray for a virtuous and noble husband, she gets worried about the futue of her daughter. But Shataanand suggests Janak to have Faith in the oath, implying that, the Power which inspired him to take the oath with see to its success. The background music of this scene is soooo Divine!! I always cry while listening to it, the same music has been used in many of the scenes after this and each time I get filled with emotions while listening to it! Very very powerful tune indeed!

Now a messenger informs Raja Janak about the arrival of Muni Vishwamitra, who is staying in the 'Arma vatika' of Mithila. Raja Janak, Sunayana Devi and Shataanand –all become very happy to recieve the news of the arrival of Vishwamitra. They feel his presence will make the ambience more pious!

We have another good news in this scene- the brother of Janak, Kushadhwaj with his family also come to attend the Swayambar. All the members of both the families become very happy to meet each other. Then Janak decides to go to welcome Sage Vishwamitra personally. We will discuss about that scene in my next post.

Jai Shri Ram!

Now we are starting our journey towards Mithila, the sc starts from here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnUX68Y9zEQ&feature=related

And continues till:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gs3AO069eE&feature=related

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAoV8ooX1Z0&feature=related

During their stay in Vishawmitra’s aashram, Shri Ram and Lashman come to know about the envoy from the King of Mithila- Raja Janak. Vishwamitra asks them to accompany him to Mithila and as obedient students, they they follow him.

Here we also have the story of the birth of Sita. That once when there were draught in Mithila, then King Janaka himself started ploughing and found a baby girl in the plough filed, and named her Sita.

Now we have the song- ‘Chale Ram Lakhan muni sanga’, where they visit the Ganges and Vishwamitra tells them about the history of Sagar Raja and Bhagirath. I love the line- ‘Jagpaavani Ganga’ from the song. The music here is so pious!! It just expresses all about the Mahima of Maa Ganga!

Continuing their journey they come to the deserted place which was the ashram of Rishi Gautam once. Now the famous Ahalya uddhar takes place! It is So Powerful that words are not enough to express the impact! The Lord uplifted the lady who was rejected by her husband. It is such a great feeling that you have to go thr’ the emotions to ‘Realise’ it. The lines from RCM (in the original version of the song) as well as the changed words in the new version- both are sooo True!! I cannot quote a single line from that composition, it is beautiful as a whole! But yes, I love the line ‘Pad raj ki mahima bhaari’ and ‘Jo tribhuvan pujita, Lakshmi sevita, un charno me sthaan diya’:- all these expressions are so Beautiful!!

And just before the sc, when Vishwamitra says that only a Lord can uplift the wretched one! I just Love those words!! It proves the ‘Karuna’ of the Lord regarding All the creatures!! Another overwhelming sequence!

After Ahalya uddhar they reach Mithila, from where we’ll start in my next post.

Jai Shri Ram!

Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan (6)- Tadka Vadh

Continuing my journey with Ramayan after a gap of two months :).

In my previous post we have seen Rishi Vishwamitra arriving in Ayodhya and asking Dasharath for Shri Ram and Lakshman. Now we have Shri Ram and Lakshman going with Sage Vishwamitra to kill the demons so that the rishis can perform the yagna in the proper way without any hinderance.

During the journey, we have a very nice doha from Ramcharit Manas- ‘Purishsinha dou veer'- it tells us about the Beauty of the Lord! I Love to listen to this composition. Specially the lines- ‘akhil biswa kaaran karan' (The Lord is the ‘reason’ as well as the ‘performer of any action’ in the creation!)... The description the Lord is sooo sweet!

Then Sage Vishwamitra tells them about the Demon Tadka and Shri Ram kills her with the aim of the ‘Welfare of mankind’. After that both the brothers keep guarding the sages while they perform the ‘Yagna’ uninterruptedly. The way Shri Ram and Lakshman protects the ‘yagnasthal’ – I feel so secure to watch that sc! In the same way the Lord protects all of us, all His children, each moment! Only we forget that and become worried about our future, ourselves, our success and all… But actually He is there always and we are safe only because of Him!

After the success of tha Yagna, all become very very happy and Sage Vishwamitra tells them about the researches the sages go thr' for the development of society. Now that can be continued as Shri Ram has watched over the yagna. So Vishwamitra wants to give some more Knowledge to Shri Ram, so that He can use all those for the Welfare of he Creation. Here we have the song- ‘Tab rishi nij naath hi...’ and we have this nice line- ‘Vidya nidhi kahun vidya dinhi’- so Significant!! The Sea of Knowledge taking knowledge from the Sage!!

And the next sc, where He eats ‘kand-mool’ with all the sages and bocomes Happy/ Contented with that! When we consider a Prince doing it, we really Wonder!!

This sc along with the prev song- are expressive of the Greatness of the Lord! The Bliss which he generates among the persons around Him (His devotees) by accepting whatever they have to give- is Such a Novel Gesture!! The effet of all these sc.s are Immense when we FEEL the emotions the characters present in the sc are going thr’.

From next post we’ll start another part of the story, i.e.- the journey to Sita- Swayambar.

Today we started our journey from here:

Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan(5)- Nice Family Moments and The Arrival of Rishi Vishwamitra

In our last post we saw Shri Ram along with His brother come back to Rajprasad from the Gurukul of Sage Vashishth. The Mothers were very very eager to meet their sons after a long time! Guru Vashishtha trakes them at first to Raja Dashrath and then the Queens also come. The meeting is an emotional one! I Love to see this part again and again! The way Shri Ram meeta Mata Kaikeyi and Mata Sumitra before meeting Mata Kaushalya expresses the ‘Maturity’ in the relation of the Mother-Son. They understoood each other so well!! Mata Kaushalya is always the last person Shri Ram comes to meet! I just love this Special Understanding, the Special bond, the Repect they have for each other! Simply Overwhelming!

You can watch these sc.s from the end of this links:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBvYFddNdB8&feature=related

And it continues:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI5xciGA1HQ&feature=related

We have some very sweet family moments here, the Mothers guiding the servants to apply proper uptan to all the four Princes and after that, all of them take their food together.

Then at night Dashrath comes to the door of the room where Shri Ram is sleeping and looks at Him! The way he ‘keeps on’ looking at His beloved son is sooo Emotional! We can FEEL that his life is solely dependent on his son! His conversation with Kaushalya- about their loving son is very very sweet!! This sc is another evidence of Dashrath's Love for Shri Ram! Many more of such sc.s are also there in later episodes depicting this very Special Bond which was the very ‘life breath’ of Dashrath!

Now we have a development in the storyline, i.e.- we see Sage Vishwamitra for the first time here, who will be present in the events till the end of Baalkand. So here we see that the Sage with his followers are perfoming sacrificial rites (yagna which gets disrupted by Rakshasaas, like Subaahu, Mareech. To perform the yagna are important for the ‘Welfare of the Society/ Creation’. So, Vishwamitra decides to take the help of Raja Dashrath.

He visits the royal court and when Dashrath suggests about sending army with him, he says- "abhi uske liye uchit samay nahi hai"- this dialogue is very very significant as we will notice the 'uchit samay' in the furute course of events. For now, Vishwamitra wanted Shri Ram only to guard their yagna.

Here we also have some dialogues from Vashishtha along with Vishwamitra about the 'true identity' (swaroop) of Shri Ram and bout his capabilities. We get this dialogue- “Ram ka naam Dharam aur Sanskriti ka pehchaan banker amar avinaashi bana rahega”- from Vashishtha her. But Dasharath is unaware of this truth. For him Shri Ram is only his son. At first, Dasharath was apprehensive about letting Ram go with Sage Vishwamitra, as he got attached to ‘Putra-moh'- but later Rishi Vashishstha reminds him about his ‘duties as a king’ and he decides to let his son go to kill the demons.

In this context, here we have another short sc following this one, where Dasharath discusses with Kaikeyi about the ‘Duties of a king’. She starts to condemn the ‘detached’ approach of the sages. Here Dashrath explains how the ‘Whole Creation/ the Society’ is the Family of the Sages. They are ‘beyond any borders/ limitations’, beyond any bondage as they ‘belong to all’. All are dear to them! They have this ‘Broad Vision’, which includes the whole creation in it! So, they should have Faith on the Sages while leaving Shri Ram in his care. Dashrath also explained how he experienced the ‘dharma sankat’ beween the role of a ‘father’ and the role of a ‘king’ while taking the decision about Ram. But he realized that the ‘duties of a king’ is more important, Here, it relates to the prev sc. Really loved this short sc!

In Ramayan, the stress is always given on ‘Dharma’ or the ‘ways’ of the Dharma as well as ‘proper Respect for the Sages, Virtues, Religion’ ( i.e.- ‘Sanatam Dharma’). RSji has explained their POV in many many sc.s after this, mainly in aranya kand sc.s, will write about that later. That is the reason why I prefer to watch RSji’s works and suggest others also to watch them as- we cannot live our life without Dhrama and to understand Dharma, we have to look at all these sc.s closely ard extract the messege from them. Ramayan is indeed a Masterpiece as it analyses all theses situations with the ‘correct approach’.

The Vishwamitra sequence starts from this link:

And continues thr' this link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7t7U-Q1hoU&feature=related

In my next post, we'll start with the journey of Shri Ram and Lakshman with Sage Vishwamitra.

Jai Shri Ram!

Yes, now we have Shri Ram along with Lakshman, Bharat and Shatrughna in the Gurukul of Sage Vashishth.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulFpN5QGzQ8&feature=related

This scene starts with the dinner of Dasharath and the queens having their dinner, the background music is Soooo Sad that I feel like crying each time. Then we have this emotional conversation between Daahrath with both the queens- Kaikeyi and Kaushalya.

After that we have the proper Gurukul Episodes, it continues through this link and some of the next links:

I LOVE ALL the scenes of this phase. All the lessons taught by Guru Vashishth are So Uplifting, Significant, Wise that I can watch them over and over again. We found So much from the messege of Shrimad Bhageat Geeta in these scenes! They are always my favourite scenes as I Love to read Shimad Bhagwat Geeta!

(Here is a song from the gurukul episodes showing the ideals:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmgc-K608d8&feature=related )

Here we have three Wonderful songs, first one is 'Aaja aaja re nindiya',( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqvMQeCQ5Fw&feature=related ), a lullaby by Gurumata - this is one of my Most Favourite song! I LOVE the Music of this song. I also want to write about the picturisation of this song- all the students are feeling as if there mothers are with them and singing lullaby for them. And the last scene , where Ramanand Saagarji has shown us how all the students are lying in the lap of their mothers- is one of the Most Most Memorable sc for me from Ramayana. This scene just creates the MAGIC! It is here that we feel united with the emotions of the characters, we also experience the same!! The direction is Sooo Powerful that any person watching this song will start crying automatically! I Love to watch it and specially this last scene!

Then we have the song 'Lalit kare Navbhor vandana', (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iOhoW_7BhI), based on Classical Ragas, where Gurumata teaches Music to the students. This one also has very nice Music!

After that we have another song- 'Damarupaani, Shoolpaani' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7VQxQcv8HQ&feature=related ), on the occasion of Shivaratari- It is very very Blissful, specially where Shivji starts dancing along with the veena played by Shri Ram! The Lyrics are very very meaningful and true!

Aaja Aaja Ri Nindiya (Rajmatas' Lullaby)

This phase ends with the Students returning to the palace wearing the royal dress, the Gurumata feels sad in the time of their depature. Next we will be having some really nice family moments from Ayodhya Raajprasad and the arrival of Sage Vishwamitra.

Jai Shri Ram!

Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan(3)- The Childhood of Shri Ram

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHLxsvE5lyI&feature=related

Here is a nice conversation between Shivji and Parvati, do watch it! It expresses all the 'characteristics' and the 'Aim' of Shri Ram Avtaar in such a nice way! And also tells us about the birth of Hanumaanji!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGCbYWdCDs4

Lyrics:- http://dpriya-literaturefilmsmusic.blogspot.com/2010/06/jaago-hindi-songs-from-tv-series.html

This song has the Kaikeyi and Bharat in the second stanza and I just LOVE to watch it again and again!The way 'Rajni beeti bhor bhayi' upto 'Kangnaa ke jhankaare' is enacted, we get such a nice idea about the relation of Bharat with Kaikeyi! I become very very sad while thinking about the future course of events and the bitter relation between Bharat and Mata Kaikeyi while watching this sc..s

The next the stanza of this song is with Sumitra and Lakshman-Shatrughna - it is another sweet scene! I cannot describe the emotions which I go through while watching them!

This song has always been my one of the Most favourite songs of Ramayan from the time I started to watch it properly for the first time in 2009.
