The present study scientifically evaluates the influence of recitation and auditory exposure to Hanuman Chalisa on sound therapy, neuroplasticity, and emotional intelligence among students of Atal Bihari Vajpayee University, Bilaspur. A sample of 200 participants (aged 18–24 years) was divided into experimental and control groups. Standardized psychological tools and neuro-cognitive assessments were employed. Results revealed statistically significant improvements in emotional intelligence and markers associated with neural plasticity, emphasizing the therapeutic potential of traditional spiritual practices.
