Guruvayupuram Thannil Sanskrit Rendered by Bombay Sisters A Sundara Narayana Composition
Sundara Narayana began writing songs in praise of Lord Guruvayoorappan after his 60 th birthday in 1999.It all began with a dream he had, wherein Guruvayoorappan instructed him to write classical songs about Him. Untrained in formal music, he dismissed the dreams at first. However it became a recurring dream which compelled him to try. Inspired by devotion toward Guruvayoorappan he sat down to write his first song starting with “Hari Om Narayana”. To his own wonderment words came out of his mind as if “a tap was opened”. Since then he has composed over 220 songs as well as a dance-drama, Manjulacharitham, one of Guruvayoorappan's legendary miracles. All his krithis are in Sanskrit, Malayalam or Manipravalam (Sanskrit- Malayalam). A few are in Hindi. Some of the songs he composed were Bhajans and a few were Thiruvathira songs. Most of the songs were in praise of Guruvayurappan. He also wrote songs in praise of Poornathrayesa, Ganesha, Devi and Ayyappa. Two songs about Swami Chinmayananda were also composed by him.
