The Sanskrit word Akhanda means uninterrupted (without any break) and Bhajan means singing devotional songs to extol God’s various names, forms, attributes, virtues and leelas (divine sport). The Akhanda Bhajan event (usually held in the second weekend of November) is observed by Sai devotees all over the world by singing devotional songs non-stop for twenty-four hours.

It is an annual event of global significance starting from 6:00 p.m. on Saturday and ending on 6:00 p.m. the next day (on Sunday). The Akhanda Bhajan starts with the lighting of the Akhanda Jyoti (the sacred lamp) that is kept burning continuously for next 24 hours. Thus the sacred lamp is lit in each country in turn based on their local time and by the time the Bhajans are completed, the entire world is connected in a circle of light. The powerful spiritual vibrations emanating from this event spread right across the globe. Note: No registration is required. This is a free (open to all) event.
