Margazhi Veedhi Bhajan - 09 Jan 21 - 003 - Gnanananda Mandali Chennai
Iravivarman Thampi,
better known as Irayimman Thampi (1782–1856), was
an Indian Carnatic musician, music composer and poet
from the Kingdom of Travancore. He was a vocalist in the
court of Swathi Thirunal.
Gnanananda (Nia-na-nan-da) was an Indian guru, referred to
by followers as Swami Sri Gnanananda Giri. He is believed to
have been born in the early part of 19th century. He wa one of
the leaders (Peetathipathis) of the Jyotir Math, one of the four
Maths established by Adi Sankara. This lineage of Peetathipathis
is also called the 'Giri' Paramparai, as seen from the Peetathipathis'
name which ends with 'Giri'. Gnanananda is a Mahayogi, Siddha Purusha,
Himalayan sage and Indian philosopher. He believed in Advaita Vedanta
because of his lineage. He loved obsurity. He changed identity to avoid
being recognised .
Margazhi Veedhi Bhajan (मार्गशीर्ष वीथी भजन की परम्परा)
Margazhi is winter of sorts for those in this part of the hemisphere.
Blazing summer followed by a bounteous Monsoon giving way to the
salubrious weather of December. Dhanur Masa or Margazhi derives its
name from the star Mrigashirsha and is associated with devotional spirit.
Sanctums in temples open at pre-dawn hours, the songs amplified by
speakers waking up sleepy neighbourhoods.
A distinct feature of Margazhi is the bhajan groups that traverse streets,
where house fronts look sparkling with freshly drawn kolam, at the centre
of which stands a bright yellow pumpkin flower. The choral singing, to the
accompaniment of chaplakattai, harmonium and mridangam, lends a divine
touch to the crisp morning breeze that carries a mixture of sounds —
Tiruppavai, Thevaram and the chime of temple bells. In those days,
a conch would be blown ushering in the dawn, a signal for the bhajan
groups to start their musical ritual.
The bhajan sampradaya was established about 500 years ago by
Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. In the South, about 350 years ago, in
Govindapuram near Thiruvidaimarudur, known as Madhyarjunam,
Sri Bhagavan Nama Bodhendral and his contemporary,
Sridhara Venkatesa Ayyaval, who lived close to Tiruvisainallur wrote
several granthas and established the Nama Siddhanta.
