Jagat Jalanda Rakh Lai Apni Kirpa Dhaar
This was released as part of a project of creating healing shabads as a response to the pandemic. This particular one is is a beautiful prayer by Guru Amar Das in Raag Bilawal. I started on the composition a few years ago. And we did a live vocal and bansuri recording when Rajesh Prasanna was visiting California in 2018. Then I continued to refine the vocals and the music. Much thanks to my dear mother, Harvinder Kaur, for helping with the chorus.
