Sita's Light Kirtan

🦚 Krishna Janmashtami Blessings 🪈

✨Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya Namah ✨

🕉️Chanting this powerful twelve syllable Krishna mantra brings mental calm, spiritual liberation, and inner strength.

🎂Today is the celebration of the birth of Lord Krishna which can spiritually be a reminder that divine consciousness, love, and wisdom can awaken within us even during difficult times.

🪈Krishna also reminds us that spirituality can include joy, playfulness, music, friendship, and love.

🗣️Chant along to this Flashback Friday memory of when we were in the process of chanting the mantra 108 times.

✨Monday Inspiration ✨

☀️This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.
🙏🏼Psalm 118:24

🙏🏼There’s something about the sound of the harmonium that feels like a prayer.

🎶Each note quiets the mind, softens the heart, and brings me back to what is sacred.

✨Sometimes, music doesn’t need words. It simply becomes a way of communicating with the Divine.

☀️ Remember to breathe deeply, stay grateful, move slowly and enjoy every moment of this precious day.

With Love💛
Sita
