Singing is inherent within everyone who has the ability to make sound – no matter whether it’s tuneful or not! Your voice allows expression to flow, and emotion to be released, which is perhaps why we need this aspect of yoga now more than ever in the modern day world. Singing together is a powerful tool for shifting collective energy for all.
The various chants sung together or mantras, could be thought of as ‘medicine for the soul’, as the word mantra is made up of two halves; 'man', the root of manas, meaning ‘mind’, and 'tra', meaning vehicle or instrument, referring to a chant’s ability to transport the mind from one state to another. When we chant in a group, music’s ability to bring people together allows the energy of the whole room to be transported to another level.
Kirtan is more about the intention and feeling of making sound, experiencing the effects that ripple out from there. Kirtan doesn’t have to sound harmonious, and you do not have to be a musician or need any prior experience to enjoy the bliss!
The word kirtan, means ‘sharing, narrating, praise' and is all about community. A coming together of people, the chants are usually sung in call-and-response style and derive from Bhakti Yoga, referring to devotion and love. The word “kirtan” comes from Sanskrit and specifically refers to the practice of singing mantras. Kirtan is pronounced KEER-tun. There are no particular beliefs required. The process of singing vibrates every cell of each person participating. That sound joins with sound that has been vibrating in every cell of everyone else present. The sounds merge together completely, passing through everyone equally. Chanting together synchronizes breath and heartbeat.
Filling oneself with sacred sound creates a oneness with life and energy and source. This can be profoundly moving. The experience of merging with something more powerful than yourself and with the others in the group is an experience that is both spiritual and tribal.
We're excited for you to share YOUR voice and participate in raising the vibrations.
