Veena


Ma Sarasvati v Veena

We used to recite this shloka in our school every morning
Ya Kundendu Tushaara Haara Dhavalaa
Ya Shubhra Vastraavrita
Ya Veena Vara Danda Manditakara
Ya Shveta Padmaasana

Ya Brahma Achyutaha Shankara Prabrithibhih
Devai Sadaa Poojitha
Saa Maam Paatu Saraswathi Bhagavati
Nishyesha Jyaadyaapaha

Saraswati Vandana Meaning

Oh Goddess Sarasvathi,
who is fair as a jasmine flower,
the moon or a snow flake,
who is dressed in white
and whose hands are adorned by veena,
who is seated in a white lotus,
to whom Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara pray,
please protect us.

Veene

The famous Carnatic Flutist Dr Ramani


Flute

Flute by pRiyA
 I did this in 1998. This picture was one of my first assignments ever as an illustrator.
I was looking through these old pictures yesterday and when I came across this one I remember thinking, " If Chumma Draw had the word 'Flute' I could use this". And then this morning in my inbox there was 'Flute' at Chumma Draw!

203_Flute


Today's word is Flute. 


"Of all the wind instruments, the flute can do the most things the most easily. A fine performer on a flute can dash up a scale and down again so quickly that our ears cannot separate the notes. A flutist can skip and jump from note to note so lightly that the music reminds us of the quickness of a rabbit or of a gazelle. He can swoop and turn and trill the notes until we think that we are hearing a bird. Musicians say that a flute can do anything!"

~ Jean Craig, in The Woodwinds (Lerner Publications, 1963)
