The musical compositions of our great Vaggeyakaras are predominantly emotional outpourings of various forms of bhakthi of the devotees. The evolution of bhakthi is based on the faith that God is not a mere abstraction, but is manifested in this world and is deeply within us. Saint Thyagaraja has epitomised all these forms of bhakthi in his compositions, which reflect his devotion towards his Ishta Devatha, Sreerama.
One of the forms of bhakthi is Archanam, the constant worship of the Lord. Thyagaraja has demonstrated this form of devotion in his life through the daily worship of Lord Rama’s idol and through his utsava sampradaya keerthanas.
In the krithi, Thulasi bilva in Kedargowla, Thyagaraja performs the pooja to the Lord with Bilva leaves, Thulasi leaves, Jasmine and other flowers. The Anga pooja to the Lord is also depicted in this kriti.

So well you people sing. I am struggling a lot with this raga . Especially nishadha in arohana. It is very very difficult. Makes me desperate enough to give up.
