Favorite Hindu Chants.

Maha Harinam - Stockholm:

Hare Krishna - street chant.

Kula Shaker - Namani Nanda Nandana:



Regarding the translation from Sanskrit to English:

Namami" is a praise, "Nanda" is the adoptive father of Krishna, and "Nandana" in sanskrit means "Son". So, the title of this song means "I praise the Son of Nanda, Lord Krishna". The sanskrit language can be translated in many ways. Its not so easy to keep the real meaning of the phrase when we do it.

Happy "lock-down" Holi to all Hindus (in 2021 was celebrated yesterday, 29 March).
Something a bit more modern:

Holi ( /ˈhoʊliː/) is a popular ancient Hindu festival, also known as the "Festival of Love", the "Festival of Colours", and the "Festival of Spring". The festival celebrates the eternal and divine love of Radha and Krishna. It also signifies the triumph of good over evil, as it celebrates the victory of Lord Vishnu as Narasimha Narayana over Hiranyakashipu. It originated and is predominantly celebrated in Nepal & India but has also spread to other regions of Asia and parts of the Western world through the diaspora from the Indian subcontinent.

Apparently when Gandhi became a student he believed Hinduism was superstition.

He was actually "converted" by the Theosophical Society in Britain.

Or so I've heard, but despite being from a Hindu family, Gandhi did not start as a Hindu.

I can't find the lyrics for this one

Samsara Davanala:

Waves of Kirtan (which simply means congregational chanting).

Marc Ellis (rugby-player) joins the Hare Krishnas:

Happy Diwali to all Hindus in South Africa and across the world!
