		<description>Padmaja: thanks for fixing the &quot;dustara&quot; spelling. As for words like &quot;Saagar&quot; we try to use the full Sanskrit form where the final vowel is retained: &quot;saagara&quot; (ocean). it is a &quot;Hindi thing&quot; to drop the final vowels in words. Thus we get:

“dustara bhava saagara taranam”</description>

		<description>Happy Pancha Ganapati!

If I may correct the second line of this bhajan, it is &quot;dustara bhava saagar taranam&quot;

Aum</description>

		<description>Happy Pancha Ganapati to the monks! It is great to see this amazing festival become more and more popular every year!

&quot;Maanasa Bhajare&quot; is an amazing bhajan composed by Sathya Sai Baba and have a great time learning and singing it!</description>
