Why practice kirtan?

Kirtan is a potent devotional and spiritual practice with the intention of releasing and removing negative energy. The mantras sung are sacred and help connect us deeper to our Selves. When we sing from the heart, we slowly let go and everything else around fades - our surroundings, our thoughts...and our worries. Our sense of separation subsides and we feel a deeper connection to our soul. The beauty of the practice being done collectively is that we absorb into uplifting energy of the vibration of the music and those around us.  When we experience this, we feel a sense of peace and harmony. We move from doing and thinking to simply being there, completely present in the moment...and we experience feelings of bliss and joy.

It is an incredibly powerful practice which I love with all my heart.

What to expect with Kirtan

In Sanskrit, Kirtan means to praise or glorify the Universe, its creation or the Divine Gods and Goddesses. We call upon the energy and symbol of the deities, and channel what they represent to our lives in the moment.

Kirtan is a collective creation of community and most commonly done by singing in a call-and-response format. It's not about performing or sounding perfect. It's simply tapping into the heart and freely expressing from there. We feel the vibration of the sound, listen to our hearts, let go, surrender and express however we need to - whether it is to sing, clap your hands, dance or be still. Together with others, we generate healing energy, open our hearts, uplift our spirits and cultivate inner peace. We devote ourselves to something bigger than us, connect deeper to what's around us and release our egos in the process.
