Bhajans for Sathya Sai Baba

Indian devotional songs in western music notation

What Bhajans can you find here
This website is dedicated to Bhajans sung in the presence of Sathya Sai Baba in His ashrams in South India and in Sai centres around the world.

What's unique about this website
On this website you can learn the Bhajans by the means of audio & music notation & translation on one page per Bhajan.

How do Indian Bhajans come to Switzerland
Some Swiss Sai devotees and musicians dedicate themselves to singing, playing and teaching these Bhajans. For this purpose they have edited books with the transcription from original Indian audio sources of 3 x 108 Bhajans (324 Bhajans) in western music notation.

This is the chain of progress. This is the reason why I insist on group singing of the names of the Lord."

The word Rana often carries connotations of "beautiful," "eye-catching," or "noble" depending on the linguistic context. In the hands of Crystal Thayer, the Rana Katana represents a fusion of these traits. Unlike mass-produced replicas, this blade is designed with a specific philosophy:
