"The spirituo-religious civilization of India has been evolved and sustained through poetry. The ancient Vedas were taught, learnt, memorized and preserved only through the culture of recitation. To recite verses with correct accent and pronunciation, while focussing the mind on their meaning, is to ingrain them indelibly in memory and sublimate our life and behaviour through their message.
*"When you recite a verse properly, activating the sound from the naval region, and also listen to it attentively, contemplating on the meaning conveyed by the words, it becomes a great discipline bringing convergence, integration and harmony. It will virtually lead the seeker to samaadhi - the inward poise and bliss."
*"Poetry recited with bhaava has the magical effect of redressing grief and generating bliss. It also facilitates learning, memorization and introspection. The word sloka means that which alleviates šoka (grief)."
