Kirtan is ecstatic chanting.
"The words of these chants are called the divine names and they come from a place that’s deeper than our hearts and our thoughts, deeper than the mind. And so as we sing them they turn us towards ourselves, into ourselves. They bring us in, and as we offer ourselves into the experience, the experience changes us. They come from the Hindu tradition, but it’s not about being a Hindu, or believing anything in advance. It’s just about doing it, and experiencing. Nothing to join, you just sit down and sing." ~Krishna Das
श्री राम जय राम जय जय राम, श्री राम जय राम जय जय राम, श्री राम जय राम जय ज
We come together again and again and again. Chanting names of the Divine together. We can sense the Oneness when we practice this in a collective way. We are so thankful to ALL who come, no experience necessary!!
Kirtan is a call and response chant practice that will bring us into our hearts.
"Kirtan is for all. There are no experts, no beginners. The practice itself is the teacher, guiding us to ourselves. Kirtan allows us to enter into a mystery world we create a temple inside our hearts, a place of love, a place of just being."- Jai Uttal
