Anjali means offering. Traditional Indian bhajans (devotional songs) are truly offerings to God, composed and sung as expressions of the soul’s homage to the Divine. In August 1997, Brahmacharini Mirabai traveled to the United States to visit the Self-Realization Fellowship ashram centers founded in the West by Paramahansa Yogananda, and to share the spirit and inspiration of Indian bhajans. The selections on Anjali were recorded during her visit — most of them live performances at Self-Realization Fellowship temples and ashram centers, where audiences were deeply moved by her beautiful renditions of these heartfelt songs of devotion.
