We commend all the Hari Bhaktas who have attended Haridasa Sammelana's at those places. The 34th Haridasa Sammelana & ArAdhanotsava of Shri Purandara Dasaru will be conducted in 2011 in a very special way. Introduction to Shri Purandara Ashrama: With the sole aim to show the righteous path of Self upliftment to Sadhakas, this Haridasa Adhyatmika Sadhana Kendra (National Spiritual Center) was established. This Sadhana Kendra was a long cherished dream of Shri Harinarayana Vittala Dasaru (Shri H.Hanumantha Rao of Hyderabad), a disciple of Late Shri Guru Govinda Vittala Dasaru of Mysore, a direct descendent in the Haridasa Lineage of Shri Purandara Dasa & Shri Vijaya Dasa. To achieve this goal an extent of 11.54 acres of land was acquired adjoining state highway of Adoni- Madhavaram-Raichur; Adoni-Madhavaram-Mantralayam at the A.P-Karnataka border surrounded by close to 30 holy pilgrim centers including the “World Renowned Mantralayam”. The surroundings of Ashrama are calm and serene endowed with natural radiating waves of healthy and spiritual streams of thoughts. The "Shanku Sthapana" function of Ashrama was carried out ceremoniously with all grandeur by "H.H. Shri Shri 1008 Shri Sushameendra Teertha Swamiji", the earlier pontiff of Shri Raghavendra Swamy MaTa, Mantralayam on Shri Narasimha Jayanti in 2005. The same year "H.H. Shri Shri 1008 Shri Vishvottama Teertha Swamiji", the Peetadhipati of "Latavya Chakravarti - Bhavi Sameera Shri Vadiraja MaTa" visited Ashrama site and blessed the project. With such divine blessings of Shri Hari-Vayu-Gurugalu, the Ashrama project became a reality with the pratisthapana of deities of "Shri Prasanna Shrinivasa, Shri Chakradhara Narayana, Udupi Shri Krishna, Shri Panduranga Vittala, Avataratrayopeta Shri Mukhyaprana, Shri Raghavendra Swamy in the form of Mruttika Brundavana & Shri Purandara Dasaru" by "H.H. Shri Shri 1008 Shri Suyateendra Teertha Swamiji", current Peetadhipati of Shri Raghavendra Swamy MaTa. The contribution of Shri Harinarayana Vittala Dasaru to Haridasa Parampara is highly commendable and stands out among all the contributions of disciples of Shri Gurugovinda Vittala Dasaru. In a nutshell, Shri Harinarayana Dasaru laid out the path for spiritual sadhana for Sadhakas who are otherwise entangled in the vicious circle of samsara. Sadhakas are encouraged to visit Ashrama not just during the ArAdhana celebrations or during special occasions but anytime they wish to spend quality time in the chintana of Shri Hari-Vayu-Gurugalu far away from the busy city life. SWAGATAM ! SUSWAGATAM !! Please attend Haridasa Sammelana & Shri Purandara Dasa ArAdhana along with family & friends and invoke the blessings of Shri Hari-Vayu-Gurugalu. For Akhila Bharata Haridasa Sammelana Trust Khagavaradhwaja Vittala Dasaru (Secretary) (Shri Nagaraja Dasaru) Notes: 1. A letter including programme sheet will be sent out in next few days. 2. Bank account details are provided hereunder for those who wish to offer their generous contribution.

  • Dāsa Sāhitya: Some Notes on Early Publications, Commentaries and Concerns1 Abstract: Dāsa Sāhitya Is a Literary Genre In
    Dāsa Sāhitya: Some Notes on Early Publications, Commentaries and Concerns1 Abstract: Dāsa Sāhitya is a literary genre in Kannada, beginning to be seen from the late- fifteenth century. Making its mark both in literature and in Indian classical music, Dāsa Sāhitya attracted the attention of missionaries and other colonial functionaries and was one of the first genres to be edited and published in Kannada in the mid-nineteenth century. Very soon, the native editors and publishers started working on the genre. Usually classified under Bhakti literature as part of modern Kannada literature, Dāsa Sāhitya got published by individuals of varying interests. This essay makes a survey of some of the early publications of the genre and attempts to segregate varying concerns and interests within what may be broadly and sometimes, urgently termed as either ‘colonial’ or ‘nationalist’, even as it makes certain interesting observations on the changing phase of the literary culture: from manuscript to print. Key Words: Dāsa Sāhitya, Dāsa, Pada, Kannada, literature, print Dāsa Sāhitya in Kannada seems to be a post late-fifteenth century phenomenon. It is largely perceived as Vaiṣṇava and Mādhva literature, eulogizing Puraṇic gods in the Vaiṣṇava pantheon and is considered part of Bhakti literature in Kannada. Travelling singers of medieval India who had a presence from Rajasthan in the north to north Karnataka in the south; Iyal and Isai traditions of Tamil and the Vārakarī tradition of Maharashtra seem to have had the foundational impacts on the Dāsa Sāhitya tradition apart from its own indigenous Kannada roots. Purandaradāsa, Kanakadāsa, Vijayadāsa, and Jagannathadāsa have been 1 I remain thankful for the comments and feedback during the presentation of this paper at the Conference, “Translating Oral/folk texts from Indian Languages into English” held in EFLU, Hyderabad, in March 2014.

  • Sangeeta Pitaamaha, Sri Purandara Dasaru [1480-1564]
    www.sankeertanam.com Purandara DAsaru -1987 Sangeeta Pitaamaha, Sri Purandara DAsaru [1480-1564] The history of Indian Music is the same for the whole of India. The two distinctive bifurcations into North Indian (HINDUSTANI) and South Indian (KARNATIC) music systems developed simultaneously, but independent of one another. While “HINDUSTANI’ music was highly influenced by the Arabic and Persian styles due to a series of invasions by Muslim rulers who were on a crusade to spread their religion, Karnatic music (which means old or traditional), developed without any external influences. Students of Karnatic Music are aware that the present system of karnatic music owes its foundations to the ‘Immortal Bard’ PURANDARA DASA. Known as “Karnataka SangIta Pitaamaha” or the great father of karnatic music, Purandara DAsa made great contributions to “Bhakti SangIta” (Divine of sacred music) and Lakshana SangIta (grammatical or art forms of music). The great Doyen and the most prolific composer in the South Indian Music Scenario,Purandara DAsa ornamented God with compositions usually known as “Devarnaama” (Literally- Names of Gods) or DAsara Padagalu (Songs of DAsa). Besides his compositions, he perfected systematic approach to train the student of Karnatic Music. He composed the “Swaraavali” (simple exercises based on solfa notes on specific scales), “Alankaaras” (Exercises based on the seven basic Taalas) and GItams (Melodic Compositions in simple style). He was, in fact, the innovator of the modern “Kriti” form which was later perfected by the great composer musician, Saint TyAgarAja Swami, one of the trinities of Karnatic Music. Though Venkatamakhi (17th century AD) devised the 72 MELAKARTA SYSTEM (72 parent scales giving rise to thousands of minor scales called Ragas) and the Musical Trinities, TyAgarAja, Mudduswamy Dikshitar and Syama Sastri perfected the foundations by their immortal compositions, modern Karnatic music is not thought about without at least a silent invocation to SangIta Pitaamaha.

  • Module 29 Indian Classical Dance in France and Italy
    PAPER 6 DANCE IN INDIA TODAY, DANCE-DRAMAS, CREATIVITY WITHIN THE CLASSICAL FORMS, INDIAN CLASSICAL DANCE IN DIASPORA (USA, UK, EUROPE, AUSTRALIA, ETC.) MODULE 29 INDIAN CLASSICAL DANCE IN FRANCE AND ITALY In this module we are looking at the state of Indian classical dance in Continental Europe. While Europe is a conglomeration of many countries, this module does not claim to cover all. However it covers several countries where Indian dance has gained root. These are stories of the success of cultural diplomacy- sometimes driven by state initiatives but more often than not by driven individuals. FRANCE We begin with France. Several Indians have settled down there and quite a number of schools and private tuitions can be found. Since the 70's, the interest is more, especially after the French revolution in 1968. There was a flourish in the culture and more Indians moved in. The French know a lot and they expect quality and new presentations. They will be disappointed to see only a Bharatanatyam recital. The presentation and quality is very much in demand. Here Theatre de Ville Paris and the Muse Guimet have long been centers that have showcased Indian classical dance. The Festival of India in France gave a flip to interest in Indian arts including dance. 1 Though many French dancers have come to India to learn, the only French dancer to have been awarded a Padmashri is Devayani, born Annick Chaymotty. She was awarded a Padmashri in the year 2009, but she lives in India. Chaymotty trained in Bharatanatyam with Kancheepuram Ellapa Mudaliar and Kalaimamani V.S.
