What IS A KIRTAN? (yoga chant)
Kirtan is a call-and-response chanting performed in an intimate setting as a yoga studio or home with as little as 2 people to a room full . The more people there are, the bigger and more uplifting is the experience. You can chant along or just absorb the music and voices.
A person performing kirtan is known as a kirtankar. Kirtan practice involves chanting hymns or mantras to the accompaniment of instruments such as the harmonium, the two-headed mrdanga or pakawaj drum, and karatal hand cymbals.
Kirtan is a form of bhakti (“BHAK-tee”), the yoga of devotion; jnana (“gyah-nah”), the yoga of wisdom; and mantra, the yoga of sound. Mantras are words, phrases, and syllables that are repeated until they become integrated into the chanter’s consciousness.
Today, many yoga students are discovering that this sacred, traditional practice allows them to access inner peace, calm, connection, and non-thinking.
