Receiving divine grace with heartfelt Kirtana

Kirtana is a valuable spiritual aid to bring the seeker closer to the Supreme Consciousness. It is the singing of devotional songs, chanting creatively with heartfelt sincerity and purpose. Kirtana is helpful in all spheres of life; it helps us to overcome physical troubles and tribulations as well.


At the place of kirtana, not only are the people who are themselves doing kirtana getting benefited, but also those who are not participating – and even those among the nonparticipants who are sceptics and non-believers, who don’t like the idea at all, the ripple effect of kirtana touches their lives as well, bringing positivity and peace, engendering common benefit.

One of the names of Parama Purusa is Ashutosh. Ashu means “quickly, easily”. Therefore, Ashutosh means the one who can be satisfied quickly and easily. That is, the one who is easy to please. If you do kirtana sincerely and wholeheartedly even for five or 10 minutes, Parama Purusa becomes pleased. Parama Purusa does not make any distinction between educated and uneducated, between black and white – all are His loving children.

Do kirtana without any consideration of time, place and person and those who do kirtana should always remember that the Parama Purusa is Grace and benevolence is made accessible.
