O You who are worshiped by all the young girls of Gokula! All glories unto You!

text on Sanskrit of Vithalacharya, 16th century kṛpayati yadi rādhā bādhitāśeṣa-bādhā kim apara-viśiṣṭaḿ puṣṭi-maryādayor me yadi vadati ca kiñcit smera-hāsodita-śrīr dvija-vara-maṇi-pańktyā mukti-śuktyā tadā kim If Srimati Radhika is merciful to me, then all obstacles to my devotion will be removed. There will be nothing more for me to attain because I will have received the fruits offered by the paths of both vaidhi-marga and raga-marga. And if She will speak to me while smiling gently, I will see Her brilliant rows of teeth which are like lines of priceless jewels. Having seen them one time, the goal of gaining liberation from material existence will be rendered insignificant. śyāmasundara śikhaṇḍa-śekhara smera-hāsa muralī-manohara rādhikā-rasika māḿ kṛpā-nidhe sva-priyā-caraṇa-kińkarīḿ kuru O Syamasundara! O You whose head is adorned with peacock feathers! Your face is always graced with a playful smile, Your flute-playing is enchanting, and You are expert in relishing rasa with Srimati Radhika. Because You are an ocean of mercy, I am appealing to You to please make me a kinkari (maidservant) at the feet of Your beloved. prāṇanātha-vṛṣabhānu-nandinī-śrī- mukhābja-rasalola-ṣaṭpada rādhikā-pada-tale kṛta-sthitiḿ tvāḿ bhajāmi rasikendra-śekhara You are the Lord of the life of the daughter of Vrsabhanu Maharaja and are like a bee who is always eager to taste the nectar of Her lips. O Rasika-sekhara, foremost of those who are rasika! I don’t desire anything other than to always reside at the feet of Srimati Radhika. saḿvidhāya daśane tṛṇaḿ vibho prārthaye vraja-mahendra-nandana astu mohana tavāti-vallabhā janma-janmani mad-īśvarī priyā O Nanda-nandana! O all-pervading Prabhu! O You who enchant my mind, and indeed, the minds of all! Taking a piece of straw in my teeth, my humble entreaty to You is that She, who is the love of Your life, will remain my dear worshipable goddess birth after birth.

about

Composer Dionis Afonichev in collaboration with the Moscow Post Art Quartet recorded a mini-album in the genre of post-minimalism.

In this work, Dionisaf steps aside from his role of an ambient producer and appears as a post-minimal composer inspired by his travels.

This is an excellent example of modern deep meditative music created using classical instruments and elements of neoclassical music.
