"Do Bhajans everyday, Everybody should sing Bhajans loudly and with
a full throated Voice, Why should anyone feel shy in singing God's name, Why
should you feel shy or afraid of chanting God's name. Never fear in singing
Bhajan's Loudly. Annamacharya used to sing melodiously and very loudly, when
People used to question him he said "I sing for My Lord to hear and not for
you", Swami always sings loudly, Have you ever seen me singing Bhajans slowly
and softly. When you sing Bhajans with a full throated Voice and with Devotion
everything and everybody around you gets purified and the Lord's name gets
spread everywhere. Swami wants all of you to sing Bhajans loudly and clearly
and with full devotion, When you do seva you are straining youreslf physically,
But Singing Bhajans only means singing loudly which is easy for
everyone.Bhajans gives everyone a chance to talk to the Lord
