One minute am sitting with someone who is versed in Vedic chanting, the next with someone who connects with the land of these isles. Here we are at the beginning of the Sanskrit film journey, when Lokesh ji took me to the Ganesha temple in Wimbledon and got to sit down with the priest to ask him about Sanatana Dharma.

On the journey in Ireland, we were hosted by Satish ji and his family. We sat and chanted from the Mantra Pushpam, Narayanopanishad, and felt like reached a cross roads in life. Up until now have been focussing on the pronunciation of the sounds of Sanskrit; now comes the time to refine to understand the nuances, the emphasis, and the gestures that accompany the chanting. This is the next chapter of discovery!

Thank you Satish ji for showing me, introducing me to your teacher, and lighting the next step of the way as you said "we are only the nimitta, a pipe between the tank and the bucket."

Last week, as part of the Sanskrit Film pilgrimage, had the honour of meeting Ambassador of India to Ireland, Akhilesh Mishra who spoke from the heart about the importance and power of Sanskrit.


He told me that when he had Covid, he listened to the Gaiea Sanskrit recording of Shiva Sankalpa Sūktam, and it helped him.

You just never know where the songs will arrive, and who the Sanskrit songs will find, anywhere in the world, at any time.
