KIRTAN

YOGA

 

Kirtan is part of an ancient form of Yoga known as Bhakti, or the Yoga of Devotion when a group of people come together to joyously sing various mantra.
 

The singing is accompanied by musical instruments and rhythmic drumming and the audience is encouraged to participate by chanting, clapping and dancing. In its heartfelt expression kirtan can induce profound states of meditation and bliss, according to "bhakticenter".

​

The event starts with a group chanting Om and then progresses into chanting a selected mantra. The tempo increases gradually and reaches a fast, energetic peak and then gradually slows before completion, leading the participants into a joyous and meditative state.

As described on "newworldkirtan", kirtan is a very simple & powerful way to meditate. It’s effortless & joyful; the music does the work for you as you flow with the melody & rhythm.
The performers & the concert-goers create the experience together.
