Gayatri Mantra Summary
Here sharing with love the second part of the Gayatri Marathon, this part mainly includes America, Chile, Mexico and USA, and a bit of Guatemala.
It was such an honor to have MC YOGI opening this second part of the Fundraiser, he sang with rythm and deep humility, very beautiful MC.
Next was Devadas who sang beautiful as always, traditional, and surprised to know that he loves the mantra, and sings it often by himself, follow him, he keeps playing daily at 9am EDT.
Next was David Newman who sang another beautiful version of the Gayatri mantra and we had the beautiful surprise to be with his daughter Tulsi and she was playing the sitar!!
Brenda McMorrow was the next one to play and somehow she managed to fix the sound issues that affected so many in this second part. Beautiful singing and energy as always.
Astrud and the Caravan was the next one to play, she prepared everything beautiful but sound issues again, it took her like 10 minutes to fix it, and and the end she did a short Gayatri, but as always, love it.
Ellie on the percusión and Jvala on the main voice and ektar, they always play with so much energy, they sang from Taos.
Here we had Arjuna from Guatemala that was actually in Italy, although he is from Germany! He sang a very beautiful version of the Gayatri.
Rodolfo Parada, sang one of the most beautiful and traditional versions of the Gayatri, beautifully accompanied by 3 shaktis who were playing the kartals and a small mrdanga, love it! They played from Chile.
RAYIM kirtans as always playing softly like silk, very nice having you again and again in the events. He played from Mexico.
Durga Julia sang a very slow tune of the Gayatri very meditative, he went chanting om on every frase! Very nice, she sang from Miami.
Śraddhā kirtan was the next one to join and she played twice as she had to cover Sangeeta that came late, that was another critical moment when there was no on online for 5 o 10 minutes, so I asked to play again and she did.
GAYATRI MANTRA MARATHON SUMMARY 1
Delighted to share with you the first of the Fundraiser for Nepal - Worldwide Gayatri Marathon summaries.
This one is mainly everyone who sang from Europe, next part will be everyone else, as we are so many singing we have to make two parts so it can be seen better.
This video is coming with delay, but finally comming!! Almost on vacations here!
The cover always contains a beautiful melody that I liked from the event, in this case we have a beautiful piece from Nitya & Ninad, easily you can hear it over and over.
The whole event was expected to be centered on Deva Premal and Miten, as they finally after months of talks they agreed, but cos of a very strange misunderstanding on the date they could not commit on playing on 20th, so I had to take a decisions if to move the whole event on the 30th of June, and move eveyone else, change banners, posters, or to stay with the date on 20th June but without them.
So finally choose to keep the date and maybe having them in the future, but was not an easy decision to make, as having them would had help the event to spread more and also to get more funds for NEPAL Compassion in Action - Gayatri Fund, their fund, and they have been the ones who have spread so much the practice of the Gayatri Mantra.
I was so happy of the last commitment with Manose that I decided to go help Nepal this time, but he couldn't join also, so the whole event has been blessed by Mercury retrograde somehow, but we managed to raise 1000€, that will go to Sano Paila (A Little Step) , Sahayeta Nepal , Engage Nepal and other NGOs that GYatri Fund is supporting in Nepal.
Having said all that we go with the video!
Starting with Jaya Deva who played one old Gayatri Mantra from him and improvised on the melody.
Next ones were AGAPE Kirtan Ensemble who played from Greece, Crete island, and its always a joy to have you.
Mo Hari ૐ followed with a simple but beautiful setting and melody, he always sings so nice from Germany.

In Conversation with the Gayatri Fund
We are very exited to have our second talk with an NGO, The Gayatri Fund, who was founded by Manose and supported by Deva Premal and Miten in response to the devastating Earthquake in April 2015.
Since then they have been working in different areas and projects, like providing food to the slums, educating children, providing health care, etc..
The idea is to present our next Fundraiser for Nepal - Worldwide Gayatri Marathon chanting the The Gayatri Mantra on 20th June, and raise awareness of the critical situation that covid is leaving in the country.
The live stream will be in One Mantra Festival page and will be crossposted to different pages.
We love the idea of making more loving connections in the Bhakti Community.
Jaya Deva will be in talk with Eva Holmberg main responsible of the Fund in Europe and other members and collaborators of The Gayatri Fund like Nisha, Tsering and Dr. Nishad.
The NEPAL Compassion in Action - Gayatri Fund has launched an appeal for medical and healthcare support for Tibetans during the current surge of Covid-19 in Nepal.
