Swami Rajarshi Muni's prolific written output since his sannyas has been vast. It is some indication of the scale of his writings that he wrote a 1400-page single manuscript on Classical Hatha Yoga during 1978-81 which eventually had to be presented as three separate titles due mainly to the sheer volume of the work. Spiritual verses have emanated from his pen since his earliest years as a renunciant, the annual output being about thirty such creations. These are works of great piety, most of them being an outward expression of his deep spiritual experiences in the course of his sadhana. Many present the deeper secrets and meanings of yoga practice; many, again, are versified sermons on the spiritual way. Initially all these were made available on audio cassettes. With the easier availability of more advanced technologies and means of production, these are now being presented as compact disks. Presently available CD's include a collection of twenty-four CD's containing ninety-six bhajans set to Indian Classical Music and so designed that the collection covers a composition or more for each hour of a twenty-four hour cycle according to the time restrictions of the Indian Classical Music system. (See Supplement of 28 May issue of India Today for a review of this collection). “The album goes beyond any other thus far and teaches the listeners which raga is meant to be heard at which hour and why”. “The album is a great treat for anyone with a keen interest in classical music or with a spiritual bent of mind”. This collection is entitled “Bhakti Rasamrut” and all compositions are rendered by Mansur Valera, a noted radio and TV artist hailing from a family of musicians who were court musicians of the former Morbi State in Saurashtra. The listing below contains the names of titles in various categories now available in CD form. Audio cassettes are also available and inquiries about these can be addressed to Life Mission at its email address. Barring exceptions, all renditions are by Mansur Valera and his family group.

“The highest goal of life can be attained only when human effort and divine grace combine. Before gaining anything, its price has to be paid. Before achieving liberation, it is necessary to work for the public weal so as to pay off the debt owed to the people”.
