Those who sing bhajans get what can be called "Double Promotion", for they derive joy and distribute joy. Life today is filled with sorrow, it is beset with fear and despair. The only time you can forget these thoughts and strengthen yourself to meet the hard times is when you contact the Source of all strength, God. You cannot get that peace and joy while you bend under the burden of daily life. You are carrying a huge load of worry all day. Keep that aside for an hour every evening and spend that time with God, who can make your shoulders strong and your burden light. You eat twice a day for the upkeep of the body, should you not do bhajan at least once for the upkeep of the mind?
- Divine Discourse, , Dec 12, 1976.
