Bhajans, chalisas, aartis and paaths — read, listen and repeat

The Vandan library of bhajans, chalisas, aartis and paaths

Bhajans & Chalisas

Read it, hear it, keep the count.

Your script

Devanagari or Roman

Read it as it is written, or in careful transliteration if the letters are not yours. One tap between them.

Verse by verse

Set the way it is recited

Doha and chaupai kept apart, each line whole on the page — never broken awkwardly to fit a screen.

Listen along

At your own pace

Follow the recitation and slow it down or speed it up, so you can keep up rather than chase it.

Count as you go

The japa counter, in the reader

Eleven rounds of the Chalisa, counted where you are reading it — not in some other screen.

The library

Chalisas, aartis, stotras, kathas

Hanuman and Shani Chalisa, the aarti collection, vrat kathas for fasting days, and more arriving.

Yours

Keep what you return to

Mark the ones you recite often and find them waiting at the top.

Panchang Paath · In writing

Learn to read your own panchang

Sixteen chapters taking the calendar gently apart — what a tithi really is, why a month sometimes repeats, how a festival date is decided — with figures you can watch move, because the geometry is computed rather than drawn. Arriving inside Vandan, chapter by chapter.

Japa & Sadhana

Keep the count, and the promise.

The mala

A japa counter that keeps up

Count rounds with a gentle pulse at each bead, inside the same screen you are reciting from.

Sankalp

Set the intention, then keep it

Daily, weekly, or tied to a tithi — eleven Hanuman Chalisas every Tuesday, and it will be waiting on Tuesday.

The streak

Consistency, made visible

Today’s sankalp sits on the home screen with its progress, so the day’s practice is never a question.

Looking back

Sixty days of practice history

What you recited and when, kept for you rather than lost the moment it is done.
