“Light the Lamp of Thy Love” — Devotional Singing of a Cosmic Chant by YSS Monastics

Join the Yogoda Satsanga Society of India (YSS) monastics’ kirtan group in chanting “Light the Lamp of Thy Love,” featured in Paramahansa Yogananda’s book, Cosmic Chants — Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s version of an old Bengali song. It has been sung in English and Hindi in this recording that was made during one of the Sadhana Sangams at YSS Ranchi ashram. Paramahansa Yogananda said: “A song born out of the depths of true devotion to God and continuously chanted, audibly or mentally, until response is consciously received from Him in the form of boundless joy, is a spiritualized song. Such songs like live matches produce the fire of God-awareness whenever they are struck on the foundation stone of devotion.” To learn about Yoganandaji’s book of chants, Cosmic Chants: https://yssi.org/CC To read Autobiography of a Yogi, Paramahansa Yogananda’s acclaimed life story that has introduced millions of readers to the science of Kriya Yoga: https://yssi.org/AoY To learn about the Yogoda Satsanga Lessons, the home-study course created by Paramahansa Yoganandaji to teach the science of meditation and the art of balanced spiritual living: https://ysslessons.org You can help more people find and benefit from Yogananda’s practical wisdom and teachings of yoga by liking this video (above).
