Kirtan-amazing!


This was my first time ever attending a Kirtan. It was the most amazing experience! I felt so good being there, it is hard to describe. It is like singing/moving meditation. You get the effects of meditation because it feels very spiritual. I highly recommend this to anyone who has an opportunity to experience one. Apparently this is a very popular practice that is coming alive everywhere. It is a practice that has been around for centuries in India. Here is a great article in Yoga Joyful Living Magazine. http://www.himalayaninstitute.org/yogaplus/Article.aspx?id=3095

The name of the group that I saw was here:http://www.mikecohenkirtan.com/ which explains what a Kirtan is.

The kids didn't want to go with me this time. They wanted to know what it was all about when I got back. They said they may want to go next time. I can't wait for the next one!
