GEETHANJALI presents Suryanamaskara Mantras, Sacred Sanskrit Recital, in CD form.

The Sun is worshipped to gain concentration of a wandering mind and to strengthen the vision.

Done meticulously in the way prescribed by sastras Suryanamaskaram is said to bestow supreme knowledge. The CD is a practical guide taking the practitioner through the movements and asanas that comprise the ritual.

The slokas are recited clearly and slowly by Sri Malolakannan.

The mention of the mantra before each chant, however, would enhance the value of the rendition. The mantras have been compiled by Dr. R.Thiagarajan, Head of the Department of Sanskrit, Presidency College. Music has been supervised by Manikkavinayagam.

A booklet that accompanies the CD contains the mantras and illustration of the postures.

A valuable addition to one's collection. Available at all leading shops.
