Borgeets (Assamese: বৰগীত songs celestial) are a collection of lyrical songs that are set to specific ragas but not necessarily to any tala. These songs composed by Srimanta Sankardeva and Madhavdeva in the 15th-16th centuries are used to begin prayer services in monasteries associated with the Ekasarana Dharma; and they also belong to the repertoire of Music of Assam outside the religious context.
