Community Kirtan

With Michael Aronoff

Friday, June 23rd, 6:30-7:45pm

In it’s simpiliest definition, Kirtan is devotional song, a means to express adoration for the divine. Adoration expressed in song is considered to be the highest form of devotion. It has been said that singing kirtan is a virtue unsurpassed, the way and means to overcome the effect of ego.

Kirtan is a very different kind of music. Based on ancient chants, it has the ability to quiet the mind if listened to with intention. Everyone experiences kirtan differently, and….

It’s not so much a performance as a journey into the self through the practice of listening & singing.
The leaders are called wallahs, and everyone is part of the music. Think of it like singing around a campfire, or a group sing along with joy and some meditation.
No one cares what you sound like when you sing. You can experience your own voice becoming as beautiful as those performing-all voices merge together to become One Voice.

At Awaken, our Kirtan is a heart-opening community experience.

Join us for these special nights!

Cost: $10
