Kirtan is a Sanskrit word that means "to narrate, recite, tell, describe". It is community performance art that originated in India and is a form of call-and-response chanting. Kirtan is often expressed through music, poetry, drama, dance, or oral recitation, but is best known for its call-and-response singing of mantras.

Join Ian in chant - singing mantra in a call and response format. Sung in Sanskrit, word sheet will be provided, with Ian accompanying on harmonium.
Known as a “vehicle for the mind”, the repetition of a mantra can be used to calm the mind, transform negative emotions and cultivate a deep feeling of peace.
The intention is to evoke and experience a state of pure loving awareness and being.
Mantras quiet the mind and the music frees the heart. Chanting is one of the world’s oldest means of finding bliss.
