Lata Ji .. Appreciates ISKCON’s Founder Acharya, Srila Praphupada -:

.. Devotional Vibes 🌟 Going Bare foot -:

लता जी के लिए गाना पूजा के समान है। रिकॉर्डिंग के समय वे हमेशा नंगे पैर ही गाती हैं। लता जी ने अपने पिता जी द्वारा दिया गया तम्बूरा अब तक संभालकर रखा है। कागज पर कुछ भी लिखने के पूर्व वे ‘श्रीकृष्ण‘ लिखती हैं।

India’s “Nightingale” Sings for Krishna

Lata Mangeshkar, the world’s most prolific recording artist (with more than twenty thousand songs to her credit), went on a rare concert tour of North America.

Lata Mangeshkar known as “the nightingale of India,” the humble Miss Mangeshkar has won the Padma Bushan, India’s highest national award, and so many “Filmfare” awards (her country’s equivalent of the Oscar) that she’s had to declare herself ineligible for more. Time magazine called her “the indisputable and indispensable queen of India’s playback singers.”

When she went on stage last January 30 at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium, Miss Mangeshkar told her audience, “I’m giving this concert as a benefit program for the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. The proceeds are going to a cultural theater they’re building in Bombay.” She then captivated her fans with a three-hour concert beginning with the Bhagavad-gita and going on to the popular songs that have made her India’s most famous vocalist.

“I began singing at age five,” she said after the concert. “My father taught me our classical music—ragas from the Vedas. When I was a child, I learned to sing only for God.” And why the benefit concert? “My whole family are members of the Hare Krishna society… When I sing for Lord Krishna; everything is complete.”

Today another devotee is called back. Her assignment perfectly complete. Coincidentally that was the day for Saraswati Puja.

.. May she eternally sing for Krishna! Hare Krishna!
