Namaskaram
We are glad to share one of the master piece of Sri Tyagaraja "Manasu Svaadheenamaina" set in Raga Shankarabharanam.
We know Sri Tyagaraja to be a great devotee of Sri Rama but in this Kriti we come to know that he is a Brahma Jnani and talks very high philosophy.
If we apply this Kriti in real life and try to match immediately I could only visualize Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi who lived like as defined by Sri Tyagaraja in this Kriti.
Sri Tyagaraja says in this kriti
To that great person whose mind is under self control, what is the need for any further sacred prayers or mystical formulae?
To him who considers himself (his Self) not the body, what is the need to undertake austerities?
To him who considers that everything is Lord alone, what is the need for differences in stages of life?
To him who considers the World to be delusion of make-believe, where is perplexity due to women?
To him who remains bereft of evil throughout life, where is any further cycle of birth and death?
The lyrics along with the meaning and audio link sung by the legend Sri G.N. Balasubramanian is shared in the link.
Let us introspect.
Have a divine Sunday and a great week ahead.

To that great person whose mind is under self control, what is the need for any further sacred prayers or mystical formulae?
Anupallavi
Tanuvu Taanu Gaadani Enchuvaaniki
Tapasu Seyanela Dasharatha Baala
To him that considers himself (his Self) not the body, what is the need to undertake austerities, Son of Dasaratha?
Charanam
Anni Neevanuchu Eenchina Vaaniki Ashrama Bhedamulela Kannugattu
Maayalani Eenchu Vaaniki Kaantala Bhraamalela Dasharatha baala
To him who considers that everything is but you alone, what is the need for differences in stages of life? O Son of Dasaratha! To him who considers the World to be delusion of make-believe, where is perplexity due to women?
Aajanmamu Durvishaya Rahituniki Gataagatamika Ela
Raajaraajesha Niranjana Nirupama Raajavadana Tyaagaraaja Vinuta
To him who remains bereft of evil throughout life, where is any further cycle of birth and death? O Lord of Emperors! O Spotless One! O Peerless One! O Moon-faced! O Lord praised by Tyagaraja
