Description

Bhaja Govindam is a popular Hindu devotional composition in Sanskrit attributed to Adi Shankaracharya. This work of Adi Shankara underscores the view that devotion (Bhakti) to God, Govinda, is a vastly important part of spirituality, as emphasised by Bhakti Yoga and the Bhakti movement. This work is generally considered a good summary of Advaita Vedanta.

Bhaja Govindam is also known as the "Moha Mudgara"
which means a pestle that pulverises ignorance, for when ignorance is destroyed,
knowledge will become self-evident.
