Overview

Discover the profound union of music and spirituality in this collection of Bandishes, or musical compositions. These compositions are the poetess's lifelong sadhana, embodying the core beliefs of Bhagwan Swaminarayan and inspiring values and inner peace in learners and practitioners of Indian Classical Music.

Drawing inspiration from sacred texts and the poetess's personal journey, these Bandishes encapsulate profound messages and teachings. Inspired by the Gunatit Gurus of The BAPS Sampraday, these compositions serve as a spiritual guidepost.
