Sankirtan is singing God's name with feeling (Bhava), love (Prema) and faith (Sraddha). In Sankirtan people join together and sing God's name collectively in a common place. Sankirtan is one of the nine modes of Bhakti. You can realise God through Kirtan alone. This is the easiest method for attaining God-consciousness in Kali Yuga or the Iron Age "Kalau Kesava-Kirtanat".

When several people join together and practise Sankirtan, a huge spiritual current or Mahasakti is generated. This purifies the heart of the aspirants and elevates them to the sublime heights of divine ecstasy or Samadhi. The powerful vibrations are carried to distant places. They bring elevation of mind, solace, strength to all people and work as a harbinger of peace, harmony and concord. They annihilate hostile forces and quickly bring peace and bliss to the whole world.

Lord Hari says to Narada, "Naham Vasami Vaikunthe Yoginam Hridaye na cha, Mad-Bhakta Yatra Gayanti Tatra Tishthami Narada", i.e., "I dwell not in Vaikuntha nor in the hearts of the Yogins, but I dwell where my devotees sing my name, O Narada."

Kirtan destroys sins, Vasanas and Samskaras, fills the heart with Prem and devotion and brings the devotee face to face with God.

Akhanda Kirtan is very powerful. It purifies the heart. The Mahamantra: 'Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare-Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare' or 'Om Namah Sivaya' should be sung continuously for 3 hours or 24 hours, three days or a week, by forming batches. One will lead and others will follow. Do Akhanda Kirtan on Sundays or holidays. Do Prabhat-Pheri Kirtan in the morning around the streets. Kirtan in the early morning is more effective than at night.

At night, sit before the picture of the Lord along with your children, family-members and servants. Do Kirtan for one or two hours. Be regular in the practice. You will derive immense peace and strength.

Sing the Lord's Name from the bottom of your heart. Be wholly and solely devoted to Him. Delay in God-realisation is extremely painful. Merge in Him. Live in Him. Be established in Him.

May peace and prosperity abide in you all!

  • Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 1.Brahman or God Exists
    Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 2: Karma Yoga, 3: Bhakti Yoga, 1.Brahman or God Exists, Para Brahman cannot be demonstrated. But it is possible to infer the existence from certain empirical factors. The existence of Brahman is known from the fact of its being the SELF of everyone. For everyone is conscious of the existence of his self and never thinks 'I am not.' If the existence of his self were not known, everyone would think: 'I am not.' This self, of whose existence all are conscious, is Brahman. There is an inherent feeling in everybody: 'I exist-Aham Asmi.' at energyenhancement.org

  • Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 2.Power of Prayer
    Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 2.Power of Prayer, Prayer elevates the mind. It fills the mind with purity. It is associated with praise of God. It keeps the mind in tune with God. Prayer can reach a realm where reason dare not enter. Prayer can move mountains. It can work miracles. It frees the devotee from the fear of death, brings him nearer to God and makes him feel the divine presence everywhere. It awakens in him the divine consciousness and makes him feel his essential immortal and blissful nature at energyenhancement.org

  • Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 3.Bhakti Yoga
    Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 3.Bhakti Yoga, The term 'Bhakti' comes from the root 'Bhaj' which means 'to be attached to God.' Bhakti is the form of supreme love towards God. It is love for love's sake. The devotee wants God and God alone. There is no selfish expectation here. Bhakti is of the nature of nectar. It is the spontaneous outpouring of love towards God. It is pure unselfish love or Suddha Prem. It is the sacred higher emotion with sublime sentiments that unites the devotee with the Lord. It has to be experienced by the devotees at energyenhancement.org

  • Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 4.Japa Yoga
    Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 4.Japa Yoga, Japa is the repetition of any Mantra or name of the Lord. In this Iron Age, Japa is an easy way for God-realisation. Tukaram, Prahlada, Valmiki, Dhruva and several others attained salvation by Japa alone. Sri Krishna says in the Gita, 'Yajnanam Japa-Yajnosmi'. Among the Yajnas, I am Japa Yajna (Yaga)' at energyenhancement.org

  • Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 6.Kalisantarana Upanishad
    Sri Swami Sivananda, Essence of Yoga Chapter 3: Bhakti Yoga, 6.Kalisantarana Upanishad, At the end of Dvapara Yuga, Narada went to Brahma and said: 'O Lord! How can I cross Kali or mundane existence easily?' Brahma replied. 'Well asked. Hearken to that which all Vedas keep secret and hidden, through which one may cross the Samsara or mundane existence. He destroys the evil effects of Kali through the mere uttering of the word 'Lord Narayana,' who is the primeval Purusha!' at energyenhancement.org
