What a lovely experience this is listening to these renditions by the disciples of Sri DKJ in his inimitable style. His group singing of these masterpieces are still fresh and etched in memory. FABULOUS !

Hail ("jayati") to the mother of the world, Shri Kamalamba. You are the personification of Shringara Rasa, the essence of the sentiment ("rasa") of love ("sringaara").

She who resides ("asta") in Bindu Chakra, which is the center ("madhya") of Shripura, inside the temple ("mandira"), which is made of the wish-fulfilling ("chintaa") gem ("mani") Chintamani, She is in the embrace ("Ankastha") of Shiva on ("sthita") the couch ("macha") of the form ("aakaara") of Shiva. *Anupallavi* I meditate on Mahatripurasundari, who is propitiated ("archita") by the goddess with the boar's face ("sukara"), Varahi, and others ("ananaadya"). She is the suzerain ("raaja") empress ("rajeshwareem"). She is the auspicious one ("shree-kara") who dwells ("vaasineem") in the circle replete ("maya") with all ("sarva") bliss ("ananda"). She is Suvasini. I am protected ("chintayeham") by Her. She makes ("karayaa") the sun ("divaakara"), the moon ("sheetakirana") and the fire ("paava") manifest ("vikaasa") themselves. She is skillful ("tarayaa") in removing ("durithana") the three ("traya") terrible sufferings ("thaapa") such as Adhyatmika, etc ("aadi"). She possesses the beautiful ("sukale") form ("bharayaa") assumed to grant the prayers ("praarthitha") of Indra ("paakaari") and the other ("aadi") gods ("pramukha"). She manifests ("paakatya") both as the supreme ("apara") and as empirical ("para") objects. She is compassionate ("palito-dayaa-karayaa"). *Charanam* I salute Her ("namaste"), auspicious ("shree") mother ("matre"), pure ("maatre") consciousness ("chin"). She is worshiped by Lakshmi ("ramaa"), Vishnu ("hari"), Rudra ("eesha"), and Brahma ("vidhaatha"). Everything ("sakalam") is born ("jaatam") of the supreme ("para") deity ("devataayaah") who is worshiped ("pujitha") by the Shaktis such as Vama, etc ("aadi"). She has the form ("rupinyah") of the Mantra which begins ("aadi") with the letters Ka, Ha, Sa, ("kaadi, haadi, saadi) etc., the mantra which is worshiped and meditated upon ("upaasita") by the twelve ("dvadasha") savants ("bhir"), Kama and others. Let my ("maa") loving mind ("chittam") be dissolved ("vilayatu") in Her, whose beloved ("prema") is Shiva, and who is the mother ("jananyaam") of Guruguha.

Nice to see uploader's name "DKJ FOUNDATION" . DKJ used to sing DIKSHITAR's keertanas with intense devotion (and scholarly manner). The group singing is indeed a fitting HOMAGE.
Excellent quality. It’s just so energizing time bear this authentic pataanthram that too from all the disciples of the doyen DKJ. Would love to see a documentary on DKJ released.
