Maithreem Bhajata is a benediction composed in Sanskrit by Jagadguru Shri Chandrasekharendra Saraswati, renowned as the Paramacharya of Kanchi. The song was set to a Ragamalika by composer Shri Vasant Desai. Appealing for world peace, it was rendered at the United Nations on Oct. 23, 1966 on the occasion of the UN day, by Bharat Ratna Smt. M. S. Subbulakshmi and Dr. Radha Viswanathan. They received a standing ovation.
Maithreem Bhajata is a song that tells us how we should all live our lives, in the short span we have, called life. Shriya Vishnuram renders the same song in her inimitable style for Manjari's ARPANA album.
