The growth, strength and inter- supportiveness of these four pillars are key to spreading of the Swaminarayan Faith. Lord Shree Swaminarayan has acknowledged these pillars and laid down the key responsibilities for each of the pillars. He instructed his Nand-Santos to write Shastras which helped the devotees to perform devotion (Bhakti), acquire true knowledge (Gnan), practice righteous living (Dharma) and develop non- attachment to every thing material except Supreme God, Lord Shree Swaminarayan (Vairagya). There are nine types of bhakti, of which, Lord Shree Swaminarayan has singled out Kirtan Bhakti as one of the most important and fundamental in our devotion to God.

  • Sikh Kirtan in the Diaspora: Identity, Innovation, and Revivalism
    SIKH KIRTAN IN THE DIASPORA: IDENTITY, INNOVATION, AND REVIVALISM Navtej K. Purewal and Harjinder S. Lallie Introduction In 2003 the Dya Singh World Music Group, upon invitation from the Sikh Mayor of a medium-size California town with a considerable Sikh com- munity, arrived from Australia to run a Sikh youth camp for the com- munity in the area. For one week, Dya Singh and his group, comprised of both Sikhs and non-Sikhs, led the camp in teaching the children Gur- mukhi, gurbani kirtan, and translations in accessible language and story- telling styles to the children of the Guru Granth Sahib. The appealing world music style of kirtan was performed by Dya Singh’s group and the children participants on the final day of the camp in front of parents and the community, surprising many in how much the children had learnt in only one week. The immediate reaction from the Gurdwara Committee members ignited an opposition to what had gone on that week. As alleg- edly commented by one committee member: He turned Darbar Sahib into an entertainment center. He even made every- one laugh with some jokes! Religion is serious business . He is blasphe- mous! We should never pay him or invite him here again.1 Not only does Dya Singh’s group use the harmonium and tabla in its ren- ditions of shabad kirtan, but also the aboriginal didgeridoo, the European gypsy violin, the electric guitar and other instruments in their recordings and performance, stretching the imagination and boundaries of kirtan into the realm of world music.

Bhagwan Swaminaryan nourished and fostered the timeless traditions of Hinduism through his contribution of a unique, novel philosophy called Akshar- Purushottam Darshan. In so doing, he introduced a new spiritual pathway to ultimate moksha for countless souls. In his moral and spiritual teachings, called the Shikshapatri and Vachanamrut, Bhagwan viii Satsang Diksha Swaminarayan provides a detailed guide of spiritual sadhanas for the experience of happiness through moral behaviour, social dealings and knowledge.

  • Kirtan Kriya Yoga Meditation
    Kirtan Kriya Yoga Meditation The Alzheimer's Research & Prevention Foundation has assembled this information on the Kirtan Kriya singing exercise for medical professionals, the public, caregivers, the media, and anyone interested in improving their brain function and improving memory loss. Kirtan Kriya exercise utilizes the primal sounds - and is meant to be practiced for greater attention, concentration, focus, improved short term memory, and better mood. The primal sounds consist of: Saa Taa Naa Maa The sounds are chanted repeatedly and in order (i.e., Saa Taa Naa Maa). They come from the mantra ‘Sat Nam’, which means ‘my true essence’. Kirtan Kriya Instructions If you would like to practice the Kirtan Kriya singing exercise, here are the basic steps: Repeat the Saa Taa Naa Maa sounds (or mantra) while sitting with your spine straight. If possible, your focus of concentration is the L form (see illustration at right), while your eyes are closed. With each syllable, imagine the sound flowing in through the top of your head and out the middle of your forehead (your third eye point). For two minutes, sing in your normal voice. For the next two minutes, sing in a whisper. For the next four minutes, say the sound silently to yourself. L Form of Concentration Then reverse the order, whispering for two minutes, and then out loud for two minutes, for a total of twelve minutes. To come out of the exercise, inhale very deeply, stretch your hands above your head, and then bring them down slowly in a sweeping motion as you exhale. The finger positions, are very important in this kriya (see illustration below).

  • Evidence Map of Yoga for High-Impact Conditions Affecting Veterans Evidence-Based Synthesis Program
    Evidence Map of Yoga for High-Impact Conditions Affecting Veterans Evidence-based Synthesis Program APPENDIX A. Glossary of Yoga Terms Ashtanga yoga can refer to 2 different concepts: 1) Raja yoga, the 8-limbed or 8-fold path, which dates to the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, or 2) the modern style invented by Pattabhi Jois in the 1920s. Both comprise 3 main parts—poses or postures (asanas), a controlled breathing style (pranayama) and meditation—and are ideally taught as a supervised self-practice moving at an individual’s own pace and with regular practice highly emphasized. The original 8 “limbs” are briefly described below as the language is used in the modern version, which is more the focus of this report. 1) Yama (self-control) deals with ethical behavior, living in harmony and practicing right social conduct. Yoga tradition gives importance to developing a balanced personality. 2) Niyama (self-regulation) denotes a set of requirements adopted by the practitioner, specifically purity, contentment, austerity, study, and surrender as a duty. 3) Asana (physical poses or postures) revolves around sitting, firm but relaxed, for timeless periods. This is achieved through practicing a set of other postures focused on a specific area of the body (sitting, standing, or inverted) for well-being, flexibility, and meditation. 4) Pranayama (mastery of breath or vital air) is a 3-step model of controlled breathing (take it inside through the nose, retain it, then discharge it through the mouth), thus honing concentration and ability to focus. 5) Pratyahara (control of the senses) is the bridge between the external and internal aspects of yoga.

  • Kirtan: Call and Response Chanting How Does the Bliss Happen?
    Kirtan: Call and Response Chanting How Does the Bliss Happen? Jo Meszaros Prairie Yoga 200 hour Foundational Yoga Teacher Training Self-Study 5.17.2013 1 My experience of kirtan has been participating in the call and response chanting of Sanskrit mantras set to music. It usually starts out slowly and methodically. The person leading the kirtan begins by constructing the mantra in small sections. She begins calling out a few words, and the audience echoes it back. The series of deliberate harmonious repetitions continue and grow: call and response, call and response. The waves of this musical back and forth, again and again, slowly build, and the mantra evolves. I liken my experience to standing on the sandy shore at the onset, and with each movement of the waves onto the shore, and then back into the ocean, I move gradually deeper into the ocean with them. I move gently further in with each wave and each repetition of the mantra. As the melody progresses, my thinking diminishes. I focus on the slow steady waves. Feeling expands. Soon, the once unfamiliar words flow easily off my tongue, and I let go of trying to remember what the mantra means. I understand the essence of what they all mean: love. My right brain wins the tug of war as my left brain finally lets go. Eventually, everything else falls away, and I completely embrace feeling. I am fully present, safely riding the ebb and flow of the waves deep in the ocean. The tempo and the volume rise and continue to build.
