As Navratri begins, entrepreneur and independent music artist Ajay Bijli has released a devotional collection, 'Hey Maa'. The collection is dedicated to the Divine Mother and her many forms and has seven songs in all: four devotional songs and three sacred mantras. It brings together faith, gratitude and Mr Bijli's love for music.
Having stepped into the world of music with the film 'On Another Note...', Mr Bijli is now trying to speak in a more personal way through devotional music. He has sung all four songs, the compositions are by Shekhar Ravjiani and the lyrics are by Priya Saraiya. Ms Nayana Bijli's additional vocals are also heard in 'Maa Saraswati'.
Celebrating the power, compassion and grace of the Divine Mother, 'Hey Maa' brings together heartfelt prayer and an exuberant expression of devotion. The three sacred mantras are rooted in timeless spiritual traditions. They offer listeners moments of reflection and create a musical connection with the spirit of Navratri.
Speaking about the album, Ajay Bijli said, "For me, music is a way of expressing feelings that come straight from the heart. Through 'Hey Maa', I wanted to bring together my love for music and my faith in a way that feels very personal. Singing these devotional songs is a special experience, through which I am able to express my gratitude and devotion through music. As we celebrate Navratri, I hope these songs touch people's hearts, become part of their prayers and celebrations, and give them a sense of peace and joy."
The four devotional songs present different shades of prayer. 'Dhanya Dhanya' is a heartfelt offering to the Mother, seeking forgiveness, strength and blessings. The title song 'Hey Maa' invokes the Divine Mother in her many forms, including Jag Janani, Aadi Bhavani and Shivshakti, and describes her as the source of happiness, light and guidance. 'Jai Ambe' celebrates her power, beauty and boundless love through an exuberant expression of faith and gratitude. 'Maa Saraswati', with Ms Nayana Bijli's additional vocals, is a gentle prayer seeking the grace of wisdom, clarity, truth and music.
The three sacred mantras in the collection offer further expressions of devotion. The 'Gayatri Mantra' invokes divine light and knowledge and seeks clarity of thought and guidance towards truth. 'Ya Devi' honours the divine feminine as strength, abundance, compassion and the very existence of creation. 'Om Sarva Mangala' invokes the Mother's blessings for protection, harmony, well-being and fulfilment.
With 'Hey Maa', a new dimension has been added to Mr Ajay Bijli's work in music. This Navratri, the collection of his voice and devotional compositions is available to listeners together.
