Pradosham Magic by Shri Narayanan Bala!

அன்னையும் நீயே என்

தந்தையும் நீயே அருள்மிகு

குருவும் நீயே லோகமாதா

காமாக்ஷியும் நீயே.

என்னைக் கடைத்தேற்ற வந்தனை இவ்வுலகில்

கண்ணிருந்தும் குருடனானேன் காணவில்லை உன்னுருவம்

கைகளிருந்தும் தொழுதேனில்லை நின்பாத சரணம்

முந்தை வினையின் விளையாட்டோ அறிகிலேன் ஐயனே

கடைத்தேற வழியொன்று சொல்வாய் என் குருநாதா

அடைக்கலம் புகுந்தேன் ஆட்கொள்வாய் தெய்வமே

நின்பாத சரணம் பற்றி சொல்வேன் தினமும்

ஜய ஜய சங்கரா! ஹர ஹர சங்கரா!


This beautiful poem is also penned by the incredibly talented artist Shri Narayanan Bala! He has drawn Kanchi Mahaperiyava for today March 25th 2017's Shani Pradosham day.

Shankara. How beautiful is that drawing. And how beautiful are his words.

Sudhan Kalidas' brilliant Drawings!

Pencil sketches by Sudhan Kalidas. He had started to draw Kanchi Swamigal from March of last year only and since then, he has been maddeningly consumed with Him! Since then, not a day has passed when he did not draw Him and so far he has completed over a Hundred Drawings of Swamigal!

He is a very simple and devoted person. He has even donated one of kidneys to his brother in law 5 years back, that is the kind of person he is!

How I wished Swamigal had seen them when He was in His Sthoola Shariram. Oh, to look at the Happiness in His face!

Words are a Waste to describe these Drawings. These must be  framed and kept in a Temple for an Eternity.

Enjoy, Everyone!

Shankara.

This last One is Sudhan's favourite, he says! Shankara. Goosebumps.
