Details
Kirtan is the keystone of the Bhakti Yoga tradition from India. It centers around the repetition of sacred mantras, sung together in a call-and-response style. The leader shares a mantra, and everyone joins in, which means everyone is in the band! The more participation, the more alive the experience becomes.
Our monthly Kirtans will be led by Alec Soderberg (All Waves and Forever), who has been cultivating this practice for the past ten years. His offerings are inspired by the rhythms and melodies of Indian folk and classical music, as well as his time studying and traveling through India, singing with street performers, learning from masters, and simply absorbing the devotional atmosphere found in temples and sacred places.
These Kirtans are not only an opportunity to chant together but also to explore the stories and philosophies woven into the mantras and the music itself.
