Testimony of an attendee of the programs in Campinas and Belmiro Braga:
During these 4 intensive days with Prabhat Samgiita I was in a state of enchantment. Certainly it’s not easy at all to sing while following rhythm, melody and correct pronunciation of the words. But even then I was able to feel how much the poetry, the sentiment of these beautiful songs, take us closer to the Supreme Consciousness.
And this makes me think that each Prabhat Samgiita song was especially created for each devotee, because each one as a poetic way to relate to Parama Purusa [Supreme Consciousness].
There was a marked difference in my meditation after the Prabhat Samgiita classes – a greater sweetness. Baba inspires us in different ways and in his creations lies a deep wisdom for the well-being of the society.
To sing Prabhat Samgiita collectively was also a fascinating experience, because I realized each one’s potential; all were singing with all their heart and overcoming their particular limitations.
And to finish, I cannot help to thank our dear instructor Kirit Dave, for his generosity in serving us with this very deep knowledge, and with great patience – because teaching Indian classical music must not be easy.
My way to express gratitude will be to continue studying Indian classical music and Prabhata Samgiita so that in the near future I can pass forward this valuable knowledge.

Intensive training held at the Ananda Kiirtana farm/master unit, in Belmiro Braga. The course was divided into two parts:
1. Intensive course on Devotional Songs, from July 23 to 25: open to all kinds of attendees but with focus on people who had little or no previous contacts with Kirit’s teachings.
2. Advanced Retreat, on July 26 and 27: also open to all kinds of attendees but with greater emphasis on advanced contents. In any case, Kirit always works with all people present taking into account each one’s level and personal development, so that all attendees find opportunities for learning and growth.
One workshop and other activities, including a presentation of Indian classical dance and Prabhat Samgiita study circles, were conducted during Ananda Marga’s spiritual retreat held at the same location just before the intensive training.
