Ever since childhood I had always been inspired by this song composed by Swami Vivekananda as a prayer for Sri Ramkrishna http://www.belurmath.org/arati_video_belurmath.htm Sri Ramakrishna Aratrikam (Vesper Service) ------------------------------------------------------------------- After establishing the main monastery of the Ramakrishna Math at Belur, Swami Vivekananda introduced certain rituals which have now become a tradition in all the branches, too. One of these is a short worship to Sri Ramakrishna at dusk, followed by waving of lamps and other puja materials before the deity to the accompaniment of music. Swamiji himself composed the text of the song and also set it to music. It has now become well known as the Khandana-bhava-bandhana-stotra, and is sung all over the word in the monasteries of the Ramakrishna Order, during the evening service.
