What is Kirtan?

Beautiful, heartfelt singing of sacred mantras accompanied by musical instruments like harmonium, guitar and drums. Kirtan is usually practiced as a call and response with one person leading the singing and everyone else joining in afterwords.
Participation in Kirtan focuses the mind very easily and naturally on the beautiful spiritual sound vibrations, which have the effect reawakening one’s spiritual consciousness. Kirtan lifts the spirit and brings joy to the heart.


The eternal wisdom contained in the yoga texts explain that mantras are spiritual sounds that purify one’s consciousness and bring about spiritual insights and inner happiness. Kirtan is the group singing of these sacred mantras.

Come experience Kirtan with us this Sunday 6pm @ Kauai Hanalei Community Center

"Rest your ears and soul and be transported to a place of inner peace and tranquility with this live chanting beautiful Sacred Kirtan."
