This is called as Gauri Dashakam, composed by Adi Shankaracharya. Kashmiris adopted this along with several other hymns from him while on his visit to the valley in 8th century AD.
Centuries old Guri Dashkam . It is recited by Hindus in the morning and evening . I also heard it in Kashmiri on the mobile .( Translated) Mata bless us all Kashmiries .
Maj Durga mata karin Kripa asi batan. Kailash ji chu gyovmut ati sundar. I have grown up listening to this mesmerising bhajan. LONG LIVE KPs. Jai Maj Bhawani.
Put your heart mind , intellect and soul even to your smallest act . This is the secret of success . ( NobleThoughts ) Mata bless us Kashmiri pandats . Excellent Thanks .
If the bhajans has so much of link with kashmir ;I fail to understand why any Devnagri linguist has not dared to translate the same into kashmiri as it has been in Vogue since centuries ????
It is not pure Sanskrit. Its is mixture of Kashmiri n Sanskrit. Its an ancient song. Kashmiri is Indo-Aryan language having many words similar to Sanskrit.
Match less composition of vedic and yogic gist, in praise of mata sharda, added with melodic voice. Still trying to understand the real meaning of every sacred word.
