Ganesha Sharanam

SaiRam

The first bhajan in this blog is Ganesha's, of course.  We start our work with worshipping Ganesh, the Lord who removes any obstacles. 

This is a very simple bhajan with only two lines.  But the lines are repeated in different ways as shown in the audio clip. 

The usual practice is to sing the bhajan at slow pace.  After every line, the crowd will repeat that line.  The lead signer repeats the same line again, in the sense, each line is repeated twice the first time.  The second time around, it is fast paced and the lines are sang only once; the crowd repeats after the lead singer after every line.

I am still figuring out how to simulate the crowd repetition, etc.  Please bear with me, while I work out those kinks.  So, in this audio clip, every line is repeated twice - both the slow paced and fast paced.  Hope it is clear.  If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to ask.

Here is the bhajan - Enjoy!
