Sri Mridanga pranama mantra

Mridanga Brahma rupaya labanam rasa madhuri sahsra guna
samyuktam namo Mridanga namo namho,
namo Baladevaya namo namho.
Translation,
un to the supreme Brahma formed as the clay drum infused with the mellow sweetness of
graceful enchantment and anddowed with thousands of transcendental qualities, I bow
down again and again to the Mridanga.
Sri Mridanga pranama mantra,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Namo Jagannatha sutaya namo Mridanga labanam rasamadhuri
sahasra guna samyuktam namo Mridanga namo namho,
namo Baladevaya namo namho.
Translation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I offer my respact full Obeisances unto the son of Sri Jagannatha misra (SriCaitanya
mahaprabhu) I offer my Obeisances unto the Mridanga, from which sweet and nectarean
sound emanates I offer my Obeisances again and the Mridanga which has Thousands of
good qyalities and I offer my Obeisances unto the lord Baladeva,who assumes the form of
the mridanga to serve lord Caitanya.the ( Caitanya caritamrita) explains how lord
Balarama expands into Ananta sesa. lord Balarama is thus called lord sesa. for he was
attained the ultimate end of serbuted to krishna takes many forms for the service of
Krishna and thus he service the lord, he serves lord Krishna assuming all the following
forms umbrella, slippers, beding,pillow, germinates, resting chair, residence, sacred thread
and throne,(C, adilila 4,123

Mridanga
clay drum the khol ( mridanga) only made of clay and if a drum is made of any substance
other then clay, it can”t be called a khol , kirtana is not completely pyre(visuddha) without
being Accompanied by the khol , the Mridanga speak the syllables (dhik tan dhigen tan)
panditas of ancient times have indicated that when the mridanga makes bol it is codemning
the material world by saying to those people who have no Devotion for the lotus feet of
the son of Yasoda, to those whose tongues are not lovingly attached to speaking of the
transcendental qualities of the veloved of the cowherd girls, to those whose cars are not
found of hearing the Katha of the charming qualities of sri Krishnas divine pastimes, fie
unto them, fie unto them, fie unto them. thus speaks the Mridanga during kirtana it is
understand that during kirtana when this bol is heard being spoken by the Mridanga such
persons (as mantioned) avove are being condemned , wheres other are being Auspiciously
engaged in Hari nama sankirtana.
y the use of the Mridanga, this benefit is achived. traditionally in kirtana only the Khol and
karatals are used because they are easily available playing these common instruments.all
classes of people even then most destitute can enjoy the bliss of Bhagavat sangita. when
music is made with the khol and karatals combined a mohini sakti (potency of
enchantment)

is produced that is naturally able to intoxicat the mind, the sound of the khol creates
Auspiciousness axactly like the sound of the conch shell. in auspiciousness canot remain
where ever the khol and karatals resound.in Krishna lila the Gopis play a drum similer to
the Mridanga but it is called a Mridanga, this drum is the same shape as a Mridanga but it
is made of wood.
and the small head is slightly langer in diameter , the Mridanga is a very populer drum in
temples though out south india such as Tirupati, Balaji, Dukhini das disciple of srinibash
acariyas wrote a wonderful Bhajans where in he mentions the instruments played by sri
mati Radhikas asta-sakhis song by Dukhini das,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Lalita plays vina.
visakha plays the Mridanga,
Tanguvidya plays vina/ pinak/ saptasara.
Indulekha plays esraj, mandira, (fingersymboles)
Citra plays seterlike vina, kasa gong.
Campaklata plays Sarengi, Tambura.
Ranga devi plays bell, ghanta,
Sudevi plays karatals.
this eight instruments are spiritual and it is necessary for us to learn
these eight instruments all ather instruments are emotional rether
then Devotional .
the following populer story explains the appearance of the Mridanga in
Gour lila, befoure coming to this world as the Golden avater, lord
krishns said to hid flute my dear flute I am descending again to the
material world but not in this form you should stay here with
Radharani to pacify her.
I promissed to Radharani that I would not take you with me, on
hearing this my dear lord Krishna now how can you leave here
along ,I have always been by your side but now you are neglecting
me, what have done to deserve this ?
Krishna replied compossionately that he would bring him along but in
different form , the flute did not mind,changing his form, as long as he
could remain engaged in Krishnas personal service.
in this way the flute transformed in to a Mridanga, and descended to
this world eight sri caitanya Mahaprabhu the mridanga is not on
ordinary Musical instrument, being the incarnation of Krishnas flute,
it is very dear to lord Krishna the Mridanga like all of the lords
parphernalia , is also completely spiritual since it is on expansion of
lord Baladeva.
Acariyas there fore consider it offensive to play speculation there is a
story in this connection relating the disastrous effect of singing,
incorrectly this can also apply to playing the wrong or speculated
beats on the mridanga once Narada Muni had learned the art of
singing, he went to the heavenly planets and began singing the words
were good, but the tune and melody were incorrect. Sura, the demigod
of melody, was preset in that (4) celestial assembly. He actually
became physically deformed from hearing Narada’s singing and others
felt pain in there hearts. some one told Naradas my friend your
improper singing has caused sura and all of the beautiful singers
present here to become Ugly and deformed.
you should immediately go and learn the art of singing correctly ,
Narada learned how to sing the appropriate melodies from
Saraswati,reurning to the heavenly planets, narada song again and
then all the residents regained their original forms. after this Narada
become the worlds foRmost preacher of beautiful devotional songs.
Narada muni bajay vina Radhika ramana name
nama amani udita hay bhakata gita same.
Translation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
when the great soul Naradamuni plays stringed (vina) the holy name of Radhika
ramana descends, and immediately appears amidst the kirtana of the lords
devotees (gitavali)
Mridanga badya sunite mana abasara sada yache
Gourabihita kirtana suni anande hridaya nache.
Translation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
my mind ever longs for the opportunity to hear the music of the Mridanga upon hearing
the kind of kirtana ordained by lord Goura chandra, my heart dance in ecstasy
(saranagati)before playing the khol one must offer instruments (yantradrstata devata)
then one should practice the vamas.
or specific letters of the alphabet that correspond to perticular hand and fingers stroks
upon the heads of the drum, the musical sound articulating ka,ga.gha.and so on with
voice while hitting the corresponding sounds on the drum should be exercised before
playing anything else,
just as a singer has to regularly practice singing the scale,
sa,re,ga,ma,pa,dha,ni,sa, similarly it is necessary for a Mridanga player to regularly
practice the vamas, with much practice in this system and by (guru kripa)
one can learn sweet Music then devotees will declare it is just like the khol is tolking.

 Introduction

it is very important to state that mridanga is not an ordinary instrument it is very dear
to lord Krishna and it is completely spiritual it is the incarnation of Krishnas flute in
caitanya lila and it is considered non different from Baladeva,
it is very important for devotees of lord Krishna to learn to play this instruments every one
can learn it is an offering of love and by perfect playing one can get krishna pleasing the
devotees by your playing you may their receive mercy Krishna and will be pleased.
playing speculated mantras how ever is offensive and is not pleasing to the lord. Mridanga
playing is considered a type of yoga and every day practice of 30 minutes or more,
beneficial to health in genarel and specifically improve the Concentration hands, legs,
Bosy, breathing work properly and the mind automatically becomes clear and you become
happy it is my request to all parents to engage your children in learning Mridanga in their
free time rather then sending them to play where they become disturbed in the mindthey
should go to a qualified Mridanga teacher , by practicing mridanga they will be able to
improve their studies , from 8 to 10 years of age is the best time to start learning if they
start young their hands become very powerful and their playing become sweet like nectar.

Mridanga description
the size f Mridanga that which praduces the best sound is 22-23 inches lenth the small and
big heads should measure 4 and 8 inches diameter respectively lord caitanya Mahprabhu
has also mentioned that there should be 32 straps, the middle part of the Mridanga should
be a little big fat or also the sound will not be very good the small head should produce a
high pith resounding sound and it is also very important that the hide be cow hide not
buffalo hide srila prabhupada has mentioned that it is offensive to play a buffalo hide
Mridanga.
Goudiya vaishnava never accept buffalo hide Mridanga , buffalo hide is thick and a little
fluffy or one side bit like cotton wool attached to it. now most people are saling buffalo
hide Mridanga, it is very difficult to recocnice which is the cow hide , better to take
instraction from qualified teacher, buffalo hide it is also dose not generally look very clear
cow hide is thinner
.Sound
(6)
normally the hand is situated close to the Mridanga there is no need to hit from for achieve
aloud sound there are basically two different categories of sound , firstly a closed or flad
sound which is called (gupu) this is very important for Bhajans beats. some example of
these mantra are ( dhete dhag tete tak , dhag dhin nak dhin) these require extensive
practice in order , to achieve the exact sound and it is necessary to learn these from a
teacher, the second type of sound is on open or resounding sound which is very important
for kirtana playing some examples of these are (ja,jha,jhena, dhei,da, ge, ghe, dhe, dhena.

Introduction to Gupu mantras

Right hand ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
hand must be keep very loose (tak) is a very sharp sound which is achived by hitting the
upper portion of the small head with the index finger on the small head but by hitting it is
middle pert rather then the upper portion, the second (te) is played with the middle ring
and small fingers together in the middle of the small head they are played in succession as
tak, tete, taktete.
Left hand
dha is achived by sliding the hand on the big head and dhag by head of with 4 fingers and
it should make a resounding sound .
Kirtana etiquette
while playing mridanga it is important to follow the kirtana leader not lead him, and to
play softer than the song it self. the Mridanga sound not be so loud that is buries the song
it self in a gerland for example the strings holds the flowers together it is not possible to
make a gerland without strings, but it is not possible without flowers , both the flowers
and strings are Equally important. the flowers are compared to the song and the strings
that holdout together is the Mridanga,
but just as a garland the strings is not the prominent thing so also the Mridanga is less
prominent then the song it self.to play louder than the song is only disturbing to the song it
self. this is the Basic understanding according to the acariyas.one must be especially care
full to play properly for Krishna. using bonofide mantra coming from a bonofide line of
Goudiya vaishnava music Sampradaya. it is very important that junior mridanga players
follow behind more experienced Mridanga player.

the four Music sampradaya

there are four sampradaya of Goudiya vaishnava Music
(1) Garanhati,(2) Monoharasahi, (3) Reneti. (4) Mandarini.
(1) Garanhati orginates from Narottama das thakura,
(2) Monoharasahi orginates from srinivash acariya. (7)
(3) Reneti orginates from Syamananda, and Bhavananda,
(4) Mandarini is no longer pure and is not accepted by our acariyas,
there are three bonofide sampradaya and of those Garanhati is the purest coming from
Narottama das thakur. reneti is the least pure of these three it is not offensive to use it in
Krishnas service so if you want to learn basic pure Mridanga then I suggest that you learn
from pure Garan hati Sampradaya , as monohara sahi sampradaya. these two are perfact
and pure. by few mantras and little practice the hand will become loose and powerful and
you be able to play with any melodies . if the practice is done right may then it become
possible , Jivagoswami mentioned that it is offensive to play speculation beats on the
mridanga for Krishna. because it is representation , are is
non different from Baladeva because it is being used in his service.the Mridanga is always
angages in Krishnas service so it is also respected as non different from Balaram. if you
find the time it is best to learn basic playing from a (guru) according to acariyas.
Jivagoswami written that it is very important service for all the devotees,to know how to
play proper sweet Mridanga, and singing kirtana and Bhajans purely everything in the
spiritual world is pure and perfact.
Krsna is not pleased by speculation. If you want to please krsna then learn nicely
from the begining from a bonofide teadher. According to Goudiya Vaisnava Parampara
then you can achieve perfection in playing and krsna will give more and his mercy.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PRACTICE
 From when start to learn you to imediatelly stop all speculation on the Mrdanga
for at least three months, after that you will not longer the desire to play speculation beats.
You only want to learn more pure playing-that power you get. At first you have you have
to be very patient and tollerant. Practicing at least one and half hour in a day. Every day
continuosly while saying the mantra when you can play faster than you say the mantra then
you are ready to go to the next mantra, by patiently practicing the same mantra the sound
will become clear by practicing in this way I gaurantee that you will be able to play
perfect, you will be able to play for kirtans and bhajan tunes with ease, practice is the most
important thing it is by the practice of chanting that you develop love for krsna and it is by
practice in mrdanga that you achieve perfect melody, the best time for practiceis in the
mornig becouse it easier to concentrate before playing mrdanga one must pay obiesances
to the mrdanga that is the devotional system and mrdanga is a instrument.
practice system
IN to become perfect in your playing there is a practice system wich should be
followed start by playing tere kheta at a slow pace and after fifteen minutes increase your
speed.and after anther 15 minutes increase your speed and after anather 15 minutes increes
you speed again and again ,after anather 15 minutes until you have been playing ( tere
kheta) ccntinuously for one hour ,then go on to the next mantra,and practice it is the same
way if you can practice all mantras like this then you can become perfact, and you hand
will be powerful and sweet.
if some one dose not have anough paitionce then it is better to to learn, especially in
learning Mridanga instrument. because this instrument is quite difficult to learn.if you can
practice for at least one hour every day then you can start to learn, it is also very important
to say the mantra ,while practicing it will give you great benefit very quickly by chanting
the mantra as you play you will not have any difficulty, singing and playing at the same
time after words.

Rhythm ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
(1) beat symbal is 111111111111111 (8)
(2) beat,,,,,,,,,,, tere kheta etc,,

karatals ,,,,,,,,,,,,
pure belmetal karatals are the best ,the sound should be clear and open not flat sound big
karatals should have low pitch sound , corresponding to the big head of the Mridanga and
the small karatals should have a high pitch sound, corresponding to the small head of the
Mridanga Karatals also have specific mantra for playing , they are actually the most
important instrument because they keep rhythm for all ather instruments ,if any body
wants to learn more about playing Karatals please so then come and learn .

EXPLANATION, HOW TO PLAY AND SAY OF THE MANTRA,,,

you playing “jha ghenere ghena” but you have to say “da guru gur”so then trying to play
and say it, saying is most important then playing, because after you can lead kirtana and
same time you can play mridanga, so for that from begining you have to make habit how
to say and play.so when you can get da guru gur da guru gur da gur then you should
forget of the “jha ghenere ghena jha ghenere ghena jha ghena, at first from begining all the
mantras you should start very slow and clear,then gradually increase of speed . it is
the basic system of playing or learning Mridanga so then go to the next verse .
