Bhajan singing on the Satsang
A devotional introduction and singing of a traditional bhajan.
"We can sing a very beautiful bhajan from Swāmī Lālā Nānjī. It is called Manarata Nāma, and it means, 'Oh my mind, repeat the name of God, repeat your mantra.'"
"Give your body and mind to Sāddhā Gurudeva, and he will destroy all your doubts and all your bad qualities. In the holy lotus feet of Satguru Deva reside all holy pilgrimages."
The speaker introduces a lesser-sung bhajan by Swāmī Lālā Nānjī, emphasizing the urgency of spiritual practice in human life. They explain the bhajan's theme of repeating the divine name and extol the glory and essential role of the true Guru in guiding devotees across the ocean of worldly existence. The session includes singing verses from the bhajan and concludes with salutations.
