What is a Bhajan or Satsang ?

For me, Bhajans ( sharing the divine)  means

1.closing the eyes

2. Get inside myself

3. Give your 100percent in singing , irrespective of the voice is pleasing to others or not. 

B'cos bhajans is not one person singing and others listening & enjoying like in a concert. It's all singing together. 

4. Synchronise with the group

5. Only the divine stays, other things vanishes or takes back seat. 

6. Either singing the bhajans would lead to a meditative state or sing the bhajans in meditative state. 

7.Once after the bhajan gets over,  could see the energy level raised up noticeably making us to feel more positive. 

8.The environment filled up with positive vibrations. 

9. Happiness can be seen all the faces of the people who participate in bhajans. 

10. Can even see the animals like dogs would come and sit nearby to feel the peace. 

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravishankar says, 

" When we talk or just sit together,  each one's mind would think differently.  Different thought waves would be there in the environment. But, when we sing with one pointed devotion,  each one's mouth would chant the same name or praises of the divine and same divine thought would only be in each mind and the same divine energy reflects in each one's consciousness."

This causes a total upliftment of energy for all .

Hence,  in kaliyuga, it is advised to sing or do spiritual practises in groups to gain the group energy. 

We also call as Satsang, sat ( truth)  -sangha( group) .

Being in the company of truth. We are in the company of the divine when we sing bhajan or share knowledge. 

Jai Gurudev 🙏😊
