About this collection
Tamil Bhajan is a tribute archive of original Tamil devotional songs (தமிழ் பக்தி பாடல்கள்) by RG Madanagopal (இரா.கோ.மதன்கோபால்). The collection spans the three great Tamil devotional traditions — Shaiva bhakti to Lord Shiva (Thiru Neelakandar, Nataraja of Thillai), Muruga bhakti across the six sacred abodes of the Arupadai Veedu, and Amman bhakti to the Mother Goddess in her many Tamil forms — from the classical Ananda Valli to the village Mother of Uthirapatti and the fierce Udukkai-bearing Kali.
Every song page presents the full Tamil lyrics in Tamil script, a clean English transliteration, an English meaning, the story behind the song, and an embedded video recording. The collection includes specific temple-rooted compositions such as the Kamatchi Amman of Thevadanapatti by the Manjal Aaru (turmeric river), the threefold Sakti of Uthirapatti, and tributes to Tamil bhakti scriptures like the Kandhar Anubhuti of Saint Arunagirinathar.
