Devotees arriving late must not disturb those already seated.Bhajan leader and instrumentalists must be seated in the front few rows.Men should sit on one side of the prayer hall and women on the other.Everybody should be seated a few minutes prior to start of the bhajan.Hence, in such bhajans the accent should be entirely on the Name. Alapana (elaboration of a raga) may be done in keerthana (individual singing), but it is wholly out of place in community bhajans. There are some rules to be observed in conducting community bhajans. A person who has an individual style of his own may sing as he likes in private, but he is not suitable for community singing. Many who organize mass singing on special occasions are not aware what kind of bhajans should be sung then. In this ‘KaliYuga’ the remembrance of the Lord’s name is enough to win His grace and attain liberation from the cycle of life and death. When all the devotees participate in the bhajan, the vibrations that are produced will generate joy and harmony. There will be no enthusiasm or genuine participation. If the lead singer takes up a song that is not familiar to others, the response from the group will be poor. should be such that all can follow the bhajan. When the chanting of the Name is done in community singing, it should be in a form in which the entire group can participate easily.
#Sathya sai bhajan free
With each bhajan sung the mind must be rendered purer, free from passion and stronger in faith. Unless you sing bhajans for your own ecstacy, you cannot bring joy to others, thus preventing them from sharing ‘ANANDA’ i.e. When and wherever His glory is sung, He is always there. ‘BHAJAN’ or ‘NAAMSAMARNA’ means group devotional singing of the glory of God.
