Sri Rupa Manjari Pada - Chakram - Kripamoya das & Chakrini

Kripamoya
Kripamoya has been singing in Sanskrit and Bengali for more than thirty years and Chakram is a collection of some his favourite songs that he felt would sound great decorated by fresh musical instrumentation and vocal colour.
Chakrini
Born into a family of Bhakti Yogis and growing up in ashrams around the world and in India, Chakrini has Kirtan flowing through her veins. A childhood and a lifetime spent immersed in sacred chants and music, has given her devotional singing a depth that goes straight to the heart and the soul.
Chakram
The name of the album is taken from one rendering of the name of the fiery discus held in the hands of Vishnu. The ancient Sanskrit epics tell of the powerful protection offered by this attribute of God and there are many eye-witness accounts of its appearance at just the right time. Traditionally the Sudarshan Chakram is depicted, both artistically and for meditation purposes, as a wheel with many sharp blades surrounding a shat-kona yantra or six-pointed star.
