Celebrating God
The singing of Bhajans and the chanting of Mantras and Stotras is one of the oldest forms of worshipping God. For many people it is one of the easiest and most pleasurable ways to get close to Him, awakening joy and love in one’s heart. It is not exclusive to any spiritual path and practically all paths include singing as a central element.
In the ancient Hindu scriptures, the singing of the Lord’s many names, Kirtana Bhakti (devotion through the singing of God’s names), is described as one of the nine ways to express or experience love for the Divine. Through the singing of the Lord´s names, one can experience complete stillness of the mind or, at least, the interruption of one´s day-to-day thoughts and worries.
Let us celebrate......
