Playing mantra melodies with kantele

In October I visited my family in Finland and took this video clip of my youngest sister Kaisu in her room. She is sitting in front of the altar she made for her Gaura-Nitai Deities that you can also see in the video – They are right next to my Deities (on the right) that travelled with me to Finland and back.

Kaisu is really good with kantele, an ancient Finnish instrument, and she plays here some ancient Indian ragas, or melodies. The first melody is typically used for chanting the prayers to the spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada, and the following raga is for singing the Hare Krishna mantra. Enjoy!
