Ram Navami - Sadhguru Sings Ramadasu’s Profound Composition on Rama
Channel: Sadhguru
Date: 2018-03-25

On the occasion of Rama Navami (the birthday of Rama), Sadhguru speaks about a renowned devotee of Rama - Bhadrachala Ramadasu, and sings a famous keerthana (song) by him - Ye Teeruga Nanu.

Sadhguru: Bhadrachalam Ramadas garu is a poet saint from 17th century, a devotee par excellence. He composed hundreds of songs which are sung even today. It actually accounts to the main body of compositions for Carnatic music. When he sang, it was an outpouring of all his emotions. This is the dimension of devotion, where devotion is not just about sweetness of love - but everything. His anger, his fear, his anxiety, his struggles, his love, his passion - everything was devoted to Rama. Because this is what a devotee means: a devotee is using the object of devotion as a means to dissolve into it. This is a technology of obliterating yourself. Bhadrachalam Ramadas is doing this in a very passionate and fantastic way. And he's been an inspiration for generations, and still is, and will continue to be. On this Ram Navami day, please listen to some of his compositions. Very sweet, childlike, but profound.

Lyrics:

Etiruga nanu dayajucedavo inavamsottama rama
natarama bhava sagara midanu nalindaleksana rama ||

Sri raghunandana sitaramana sritajanaposaka rama
karunyalaya bhaktavarada ninu kannadi kanupa rama ||

Krurakarmamulu neraka jesiti neramu len caku rama
daridryamu pariharamu ceyave daivasikhamani rama || 

Vasavanuta ramadasa posaka vandana mayodhyarama
dasarcita makabhaya mosangave dasaradhi raghurama ||

Rama Rama Rama Rama ||
Rama Rama Ram ||
