Raga Pantuvarali is the 51st Mela belonging to the 9th Chakra – The Brahma Chakra. It was designated as Kamavardhini earlier and the name first appeared in Sangraha Choodamani of Govindacharya. Muthuswamy Dikshitar addressed it as Kashiramakriya. In Sanskrit works, Pantuvarali is referred to as Ramakriya. Ramamatya in his Swaramelakalanidhi(1550) mentions Raga Deepakam as a janya of Ramakriya. Tyagaraja immortalised Deepakam with his krithi Kalala Nerchina.

Today was a Blessed Day for me. Had visited my Guru and was immensely blessed !!
Humble prostrations at the lotus feet of all the Gurus’ in my life on this most auspicious Guru Poonima Day. This doesn’t mean that we should offer our heartfelt thanks to our Gurus only on this day. Our devotion and respect to the Guru should be always there in us, every moment we live, in our mind and heart, ever thankful.
