I am feeling very thrilled that on 9th of May, 2009, I participated in the public singing of Annamayya Kirtanas. These are songs written in telugu by a saint poet of 14th century and on this day, we created a Guinness record and Robert Marshal the Director of the programme. It was an amazing experience and so much positive energy was flowing . I had to go to classes for a month to learn the Kirtanas so that i got the diction right. It is nice to know that we can continue with the songs from 14th cen. till today in the 21st century with ease. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX2BuosmFHk
I feel this was an experience of a life time. Imagine people of all ages, joining in. John Marshall said he was very happy to see that there were more young people than old in the gathering, all singing in one voice. Every one was dressed in their best and it was an amazing sight.
