Familiarity

 Familiarity

There is a comfort in familiarity, an at home feeling, a feeling of security, a feeling of reaching home back,
In a song there is sthayee, anthara, sthayee is home , anthara is going out of home on some exploring mission, and then returning to sthayee, that is to home back
One gets some rest/ respite every time singer come back to shayee , the original home, origin,
also when we come back to shadjam, at the end of song, we feel good amount of relief, relaxation, exhilaration , as if we achieved a success
also in thaane, we again come back to sthayee, and start fresh thaane
though familiar an old song takes one into a dream of memories, ie a bit away from the ”shackles of the inescapable present situation of the present moment
here comes the relevance of /significance of repeating the most familiar , the same nama/ stothra of gods , instead of every time a new name and a new stothra 
..since one feels an identity of oneself with that god , hence a nice feel
So familiarity breeds tempt, it is charming
