Karpanaiye kadavul - presented by Anahita and Apoorva Ravindran - is one of the most profound and original songs in world history.  It offers an out-of-the-box perspective on the very nature of the omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent God in a manner that has perhaps never been considered before. 

This composition of Ravikiran’s highlights that God = Force of Creativity. It explains how the force of Creativity is the all pervading, perpetual, prime mover of the Universe.  It is beyond space-time and every other dimensional limitations; it is beyond every type of science and spirituality that’s known as well as unknown to us. There is no way to measure either its immensity or its minuteness. It is beyond every law of matter and energy and it is impossible to design any experiment to quantify or locate it. It is beyond the five senses, yet it can be appreciated through each of the sensory organs. 

Most of all, it’s totally beyond right and wrong, good and bad, race, religion, region and language. In other words, it is not limited to only positive people. It manifests in super galaxies or as the tiniest of microbes but is above all of them. In short, it has every quality attributed to God.

Ravikiran kept the song deliberately short but even then it consists of 5 separate sections. To learn more about the subject, pls check out a detailed article in the composer’s Blog.
