Who is Sooryagayathri – An Introduction

(This post is a combination of two answers I wrote on Quora, addressing questions about who Sooryagayathri is and how her talents can be compared to those of great singers like M.S. Subbulakshmi.)

Sooryagayathri is a young devotional singer from a small village called Purameri, near Vadakkara, Kerala. She is known for her divine voice.

When she was very young, she sang Hanuman Chalisa which attracted so many devotees and fans of carnatic music. Since then, she has been doing concerts around the world.

Apart from singing, she also has the ability to compose music. Her mom is a wonderful poetess and her dad is a Mridangam artist. Her family works in which she sings the songs written by her mother are very popular. She composed music for those songs herself.

Below video is her recent release. This song Shambhu Natanam was written by Patanjali and music was composed by Sooryagayathri herself:

Sooryagayathri has millions of fans around the world who see her as a reincarnation of M.S.Subbulakshmi. She also says that her main inspiration is M.S.Subbulakshmi.

She has also sung many songs which were sung by M.S.Subbulakshmi. Sooryagayathri sang ‘Kurai onrum illai’ song when she was very young and you can watch the below video to witness her divine voice and wonderful expressions:

One of my favourites is “Maithreem Bhajatha”, which was sung by M.S.Subbulakshmi at United Nations and received a standing ovation. Sooryagayathri sang this song along with her guru Kuldeep M Pai, Rahul Vellal and Bhavya Ganapathi.

She practices and hones her skills every day while also composing music. With each passing year, it’s undeniable that Sooryagayathri will ascend to be recognized as the reigning queen of the music world.

Do Miracles Exist? – Here is a Compelling Evidence

In June 2020, I started to notice something unusual while I was in Pappankulam, my native village. I used to sit in a tea shop and listen to the songs on Suryan FM. I observed a synchronization between the lyrics of the songs and my surroundings. This phenomenon happened for every single sentence of the song.

For instance, when the current word being sung is ‘crow,’ I would find myself instinctively turning in a direction only to spot an actual crow nearby. I haven’t noticed it much except in songs sung in Tamil language.

I couldn’t replicate it on my own as it was beyond my control; it appears to happen unpredictably. I’ve shared this experience with a few people, and while they expressed surprise, they didn’t seem to take it very seriously.

Anyway, I recently observed the same effect when I create an Instagram Reel and add music to it. It becomes particularly noticeable when I edit Sooryagayathri’s videos by incorporating a Tamil song into the reel. I had noticed this phenomenon a few times before, but in my recent Instagram Reels which I created this year, the evidence is undeniable.

Now, it serves as public evidence. If you understand Tamil, take a look at my Instagram Reels: https://www.instagram.com/shanmugamp73/. Pay close attention, and you won’t believe your eyes. Once you notice this, I am curious to hear your comments.
