Significance
Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram Significance
The Ram Dhun that Mahatma Gandhi sang at his prayer meetings and on the 1930 Salt March, in the tune set by Vishnu Digambar Paluskar. Its opening comes from an older Ram bhajan traditionally attributed to Lakshmanacharya (which continues 'सुंदर विग्रह मेघश्याम, गंगा तुलसी शालग्राम…'); Gandhi's version adds 'ईश्वर अल्लाह तेरो नाम, सबको सन्मति दे भगवान', asking the one God, called by both names, to give everyone a right mind. It is sung at prayer meetings, on Gandhi Jayanti and in schools.
