Haripatha - An Advaitic Composition of Jnaneshwara

What is Haripatha?

The Haripatha consists of a series of 27 ecstatic musical poems or abhangas which
repeatedly praise the value of chanting of God’s names, describe the countless benefits to be gained, and gives us many insights into the correct way to live a spiritual life; a life immersed in the blissful presence of this divinity whom Jnaneshwara calls Hari, and our own Self.
The devotional song of Maharashtra is typically an "abhanga" which is a short verse of about four lines in olden Marathi, well balanced syllabically and with beauty and melody of its own. The essence of the abhanga is its simplicity. The appeal to Lord Hari or Panduranga is ever transparent through few but well chosen words, which even when chanted casually can take the devout to great heights of peace and tranquility. The text also lends itself admirably to musical compositions because of the subtle balance of words fitting well into elegant taal patterns. The appeal of the abhanga to the common man is obviously unique.
The Haripatha enjoys today a special place amidst all religious texts in any Maharashtrian family. And rightly so because unlike other abhangas the themes of Haripatha abhangas relate directly to our daily lives and more importantly, they are easy to understand even for the novice
