Résumé

Résumé : Songs for Children, Author’s Notes

The most important wealth among all wealths is child wealth, which is also the best wealth to have. In fact, child and mother may be considered to be divine wealth. A child is everything; the home, the nation, the world and the world’s lifeline. For this reason, the upbringing of children is the primary duty of this world’s denizens. Countries such as Japan, Switzerland, Russia and America have many unique arrangements in place for the upbringing of children. Mothers are accorded the topmost priority in these countries. Child-friendly gardens, playgrounds, teachers, toys, books, songs, pictures and films are available in large numbers in these countries.

This book has been written especially to develop and promote good habits and discipline in children. I have brought up many children with the help of these songs. Everyone must be able to live in a spiritually balanced environment without the restrictions of caste and religion. I have brought out these songs in a new edition with the aim to make the children of our country into strong and brave citizens. I request the readers to accept my humble offering and acquaint the children with it. I dedicate this book to the kind-hearted teachers who take care of children like mothers.

These songs of child development are suitable for adaptation in mime and dance. They can be sung in ragas such as mohanam, begasri, punnagavaraali, sankarabaranam, arabhi, kambodhi, desh, kapi etc. and set to talas such as adhi, rupagam, jambai, thisira, ega etc. I request the teachers to make drawings based on these songs and explain them and the songs line by line to the children.

This edition is also being brought out to commemorate a special day for the children of Rajaraja Gopalan from the Balu family who is the custodian of Vadalur Yoga Samaj. This dear well-wisher is a firm believer and follower of the tenets laid down in Yoga Siddhi (Gospel of Perfect Life) and Bharata Shakti. This book was being published from the monthly contributions made by him to me. May his children shine in every field and be endowed with wealth, knowledge and long life with the blessings of divinity!

Biographie : Presentation of Dr. Shuddhananda Bharati 11th May 1897 – 7th March 1990

The wise one to the cosmic age.

Although more than 90 years old, in his school in the south of India, Kavi Yogi Maharishi (great divine visionary, wise poet), Dr. Shuddhananda Bharati worked like a young man of twenty. When he was asked his age, he answered: “My age is Courage!”

The Yogi wrote several hundred works in English, French, Tamil, Hindi, Telugu and Sanskrit: five thousand songs, and fifteen hundred poems in French. The magnum opus of the man conscious of the presence of God in him, Bharata Shakti, (in 50,000 verses) described his ideal: only One Humanity living in communion with only One God in a transformed world! Bharata Shakti is a monumental and unique work. The Yogi depicts the essence of all the religions, of all the prophets and saints, all the approaches of Yoga and all the cultures on an allegorical table. It is a book for any age which all spiritual researchers and all nations should read and meditate on. This work was completed and appreciated by Sri Aurobindo, the Mother, Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Romain Rolland, Annie Besant, Bertrand Russell, George Bernard Shaw and so many others. It installs the author among the great, men such as Dante, Homer, Racine, Shakespeare, Vyasa, and Valmiki.

Dr. Shuddhananda Bharati is one of the greatest Tamil poet, having translated into this language: Gita, Upanishads, Veda, the Bible, the Koran, Avesta, the Buddha-Dhamma-Sangha and Tattvartha Sutra, the life and teachings of Lao-Tseu and Confucius. From their original languages, he also translated into Tamil The Divine Comedy of Dante, the tragedies of Racine, the comedies of Molière, the dramas of Corneille, Shakespeare, Goethe and the novels of Anatole France, Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas and others.

Shuddhananda’s works are innumerable. Malcolm Macdonald, who chaired the Congress on the Unity of the Conscience in Singapore, said in his short speech about him: “He is such a remarkable man, having such a diversity of raised gifts, that it is difficult to know where to start and where to finish when one speaks about Kavi Yogi Dr. Shuddhananda Bharati. Few men have achieved as many things in only one human life.” His name appears moreover in the Encyclopaedia of the World’s Great Men, which says: “Dr. Shuddhananda Bharati is the author of literary works of varied styles: works epic and lyric, melodramas, operas, comedies, pastoral, romance, novels, biographies, commentaries on famous works and texts. Bharata Shakti is his magnum opus.” He had a presentiment that he would receive the Nobel Prize for Peace or for Literature but did not live to see it. His commitment is summarized in his book celebrating his life, “Experiences of a Pilgrim Soul (Expérience d’une Âme de Pèlerin)”.

God I loved and lived in him,
Making His commandment
Leave to Man his entire talents
This is my will! Dr. Shuddhanananda Bharati
