Sri Kamalamba Navavarna Kritis of Sri Muthuswami Dikshitar
Nava Varna Kritis are a great gift for us all. The structure of those songs and the ragas selected for each chakra are a beauty. Dikshitar systematically reaches from base to Bindu in each song and explains the greatness of the position of the chakra. The last Mantra Keerthana comprehensively covers all mantras of the chakra. This shows the depth of research and understanding Dikshitar had on the Sri Vidhya Maha Shodasakshari mantra learnt from Sri. Chidambara Swamiji.

This book brings out the notation to the benefit of music lovers and students.

The book has been published in three languages: English, Tamil and Telugu for wide circulation.

As Asia’s leaders seek to rebuild their economies and societies in the wake of COVID-1...
