'Gun Govind Ra Gaaya' sings Mahesha Ram

पान नहीं तोड़्या फल नहीं खाया नहीं कोई जीव सताया डाली डाली में रमे रामैयो ओथ बैठ फल खाया This Kabir song gently nudges us away from the prescribed rituals of religion and towards a more sensitive relationship with the natural world and our own bodies where the divine resides. A unique Kabir song which brings us into a deeper appreciation of the material world instead of evoking only the transcendental. *** Find lyrics/translation of this song at: http://ajabshahar.com/songs/details/2...

Mahesha ji would draw the participants into the spirit of satsang in the early mornings and late evenings. Rest of the day, some of us sat with him and recorded new and old songs from his very deep repertoire. (Click on Settings for subtitles in English & Hindi.) Meditative and mesmeric – these are the qualities of Mahesha Ramji’s music. Unhurried and not in an eager rush to please the public, Mahesha Ramji slows you down, and compels you to step into his rhythm. He belongs to Chhatangadh village near Jaisalmer in Rajasthan, and represents the folk style of the Meghval community, who are the traditional carriers of the poetry of many bhakti poets including Kabir, keeping it alive through a powerful oral tradition.
