"What then is the essence of Sankeerthana? Its essential purpose is

to earn the love of God. Combining one's voice, tune, feeling and

rhythm to the appropriate beat of the song, the devotee should

immerse himself in the singing. Harmonizing the feeling with

devotion and Love, the sacred words of the song should be an

outpouring of love towards God. That alone is devotional singing."

- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
