Rudram Chanting at the White House: Perfect Rendition by the American Duo

While most "secular" Indians would not want this in the Rāśtrapati Bhavan, Śrī Rudram being chanted at the White House. Who'd have ever thought- And these young, white American men do it so beautifully. I chant the Rudram myself, and can tell this is a nearly flawless rendition. So proud of these folks… I am amazed at how meticulously they've grasped the svarās (intonations), especially knowing how much harder it would be with an American accent as a starting point.
