Essential Mantras

Jai Gurudev!
Welcome to the Essential Mantras course. This course will teach you how to chant our most important mantras properly, whilst educating you on the meaning and origin of these mantras at the same time. Mantras are a fundamental part of any devotee’s spiritual practice and they serve a multitude of purposes. We chant mantras when we wake up, before we go to sleep, before we eat, when someone has a birthday, when we wish to pray, when we wish to build our connection with God, and so much more! Although chanting in Sanskrit may appear to be a daunting task at first, through these instructional videos you will be able to systematically break these mantras down into an easy-to-learn format that we are sure you will enjoy!

The Art of Experience Sharing
YOUR STORY CAN CHANGE LIVES!
When asked how we can best serve guru and God, Paramahamsa Vishwananda often encourages us to share our own experiences of being on the bhakti path.
‘If an experience has changed your life, especially if that experience has transformed you, then it is important to share it with others.’
– Paramahamsa Vishwananda
Your personal story of transformation can inspire others to change their lives for the better. When shared with love and feeling, your story can truly be a divine gift.
‘Don’t have fear to talk about your path. Be strong! Know that you are doing something for humanity.’
– Paramahamsa Vishwananda

Basics of singing – Level 2
Ramanuja Maṅgalaṁ
Jai Gurudev!
Join Aaradhakaananda and learn how to play the Rāmānuja-maṅgalaṁ step-by-step.
The Rāmānuja-maṅgalaṁ is a prayer in praise of Śrī Rāmānujācārya composed by Swami Vishwa Ranga Ramanuja. Śrī Rāmānujācārya is praised as the king of all renunciants and the bestower of all auspiciousness and several of his memorable feats are glorified. Ultimately, we express gratitude for his boundless mercy and for teaching life’s true purpose through the process of śaraṇāgati that Śrī Rāmānujācārya gave freely to all mankind.
Tulsī-āratī
Jai Gurudev!
Join Aaradhakaananda and learn how to play the Tulsī-āratī step-by-step.
The Tulsī-āratī, Namo Namah, is a Bengali prayer for Tulsī-devī, praising goddess Tulsī who is the epitome of faith and bhakti. It is Her greatest joy to bless Her children with the same type of faith and bhakti.
In Her boundless mercy, She accepted Nārāyaṇa’s request and continuously incarnates as a plant so that anyone can serve Her. Tulsī plays a major role in our devotional service and is a permanent part of our daily life, and any offering to the Lord is incomplete without Tulsī.
