Bhajans
The ongoing effect of group devotional singing – each devotional song or bhajan at a time – is to release the mind from worldly passions, purify it over time and crystallise faith in the divine.
Group devotional singing or bhajans are one of the most uplifting spiritual practices available to us. Whilst music on its own creates a level of joy, this joy is significantly elevated when a spiritual dimension is incorporated and many take part in the experience. Group devotional singing or bhajans are designed to connect with the divine and express the glory of God through voice and music as a collective group.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba emphasised that all human beings are divine and that the goal and purpose of this life is to realise this. He said by practising spirituality and leading a love-filled and selfless life filled with good values, man can reach the pinnacle of His own divinity and come to the realisation that all are divine and united. He declared This formula for humans to lead a meaningful life is summarised in following the universal human values of: truth (sathya), right conduct (dharma), peace (shanthi), love (prema) and non-violence (ahimsa).
He has inspired millions through humanitarian work, leading by example and His motto of ‘Love All, Serve All’. His timeless and universal teachings have attracted seekers from all walks of life, faiths, cultures and nationalities, inspiring them to lead constructive, value-driven and fulfilling lives.
