Hari Bhajana Sukha Shanti Nahin

Hari Nama Bina Ananada Nahin

Prema Bhakti Bina Uddhara Nahin

Guru Seva Bina Nirvana nahin

Sai Bhajana Bina Sukha Shanti Nahin

Japa Dhyana Bina Samyoga Nahin

Sai Darisha Bina Prajnana Nahin

Prabhu Darshan Bina Pragnan Nahee

Daya Dharma Bina Satkarma Nahin

Bhagavan Bina Koi Apna Nahin

Sai nath Bina Paramatma Nahin

 

Meaning

 

Without singing Sai Bhajan, it is not possible to find peace and

happiness. Without worshipping Shree Krishna it is not possible to

gain bliss. Without love, devotion and detachment liberation is not

possible. Without service to the divine teacher salvation is not

possible. Without meditation and repetition of God's name Samadhi or

union with god is not possible. Without a desire to realize god,

supreme knowledge cannot be attained. Without kindness and right

conduct no act can be called a good act. There is no one that we can

call our own except god. There is no Lord except the Supreme Lord Of

Lords, Sai Nath.

"What then is the essence of Sankeerthana? Its essential purpose is

to earn the love of God. Combining one's voice, tune, feeling and

rhythm to the appropriate beat of the song, the devotee should

immerse himself in the singing. Harmonizing the feeling with

devotion and Love, the sacred words of the song should be an

outpouring of love towards God. That alone is devotional singing."

- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
