Guest guest Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 I would like to hear from people about their favorite Devi bhajans. Names of recordings would be great too... or URLs if they can be heard online. One of my most beloved is Anpiyanamba, sung by Mata Amritanandamayi and devotees. (This is in Malayalam, but I heard the tune once in Hindi or something close, with different lyrics, so maybe it was adapted.) The chorus goes, "O loving Mother, pouring out your smile like a rain of honey, wipe out the darkness in my heart and live inside there." Also Nij Caranom Ka Pyar, on Jagjit Singh's album Maa. My current favorite is a Bengali bhajan, Isvari Jagodisvari.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 My familiarity with Devi Bhajans begins and ends with Ammachi (Mata Amritanandamayi). There are several there. Triloka Matra Rupini (this is awesome in its impact!) Bhavani Bhagyavidhatri Isvari Jagadishvari (original malayalam version, not the bengali one you mentioned) Iswara Lila Yidellam (yes this is a Devi song too!) I have heard that Shree Maa and KarunaMayi Devi have also sung some wonderful songs (they are reputed to have a great voice) and I have heard some over the websites online radio, but not keenly followed them.
