Singing Bhajans – devotional songs, have been an integral
part of my family. It was a ritual, a
daily practice even, when we were kids.
In my community (the GSB – Gowd Saraswat Brahmans) this used to be a
common practice in my father’s generations.
In the evening when the lamps were lit, there would be a short session
of Bhajans.
For me, it started off as an unwanted discipline and chore
that I couldn’t avoid, to now something I genuinely enjoy and is one of my
favourite things to do.
