about

A Bhajan is any type of Hindu devotional song. It has no fixed form: it may be as simple as a mantra or kirtan or as sophisticated as the dhrupad or kriti with music based on classical ragas and talas.[1] It is normally lyrical, expressing love for the Divine. The name, a cognate of bhakti, meaning religious devotion, suggests its importance to the bhakti movement that spread from the south of India throughout the entire subcontinent in the Moghul era.

Anecdotes and episodes from scriptures, the teachings of saints and descriptions of gods have all been the subject of bhajans. The Dhrupad style, Sufi qawwali[2] and the kirtan or song in the Haridasi tradition are related to bhajan. Nanak, Kabir, Meera, Narottama Dasa, Surdas and Tulsidas are notable composers. Traditions of bhajan such as Nirguni, Gorakhanathi, Vallabhapanthi, Ashtachhap, Madhura-bhakti and the traditional South Indian form Sampradya Bhajan each have their own repertoire and methods of singing.Le bhajan (du sanskrit bhajana « adoration ») est un chant dévotionnel de l'hindouisme1 à l'intention de diverses divinités (Shiva, Krishna, Lakshmi, Ganesh), personnages religieux ou avatars. Dans le sikhisme, le terme de kirtan est plus utilisé.

Ces chants ont, pour certains, une origine très ancienne, d'autres sont des créations contemporaines, et sont interprétés avec des instruments de musique traditionnels tels l'harmonium, le dholak ou les tablâs, sur des rythmes dévolus (à huit temps).

Dans leurs textes les exploits des dieux sont mis en exergue ainsi que leurs attributs et leurs vertus. Ces prières font partie du bhakti yoga et cherchent aussi à fixer l'attention des croyants les aidant ainsi à penser à la Vérité ultime plutôt qu'aux besoins et tracas matériels qui hantent le quotidien. Le bhakti yoga à travers ces bhajans mènent à l'éveil.
