Aba Hama bhajan
Singing bhajan brings the direct experience of bliss and the cessation of mental activity. The happiness of divine unity is placed within the bhajan's form for any singer to experience. Observe your thoughts and feel the heart as waves of bliss circulate between it and the crown chakra. Reality, like the ocean, exists in different forms; wisdom is the cloud that brings the nourishing rain of nectar. This nectar is the Guru's word, the pure knowledge that quenches all thirst. When the mind is completely filled with this wisdom, all desires are purified and fearless stillness is attained. The transformative mantra turns base consciousness into gold.
"Automatically, all vṛtti subsides. Automatically, all vṛtti ceases."
"One drop of rain has more energy for the plants than one liter of water which you take from your water table."
