Bhakti Kirtan With Yogi Dev: CANCELLED

Bhakti Yoga is known as the Yoga of Devotion, also explained as the longing to the Divine. Kirtan is one of the tools been used to practice Bhakti yoga. It is non-denominational, the universal language of the heart, the song of the union.

The devotion can be to the truth, God, the Supreme, Brahman, the absolute reality or any other name that you want to call the ineffable. The specific form is unimportant. It is the devotion/longing that you personally feel that is essential. Without this devotion, whether great or small, it is impossible to practice Bhakti yoga.

Chanting sacred hymns has a method and structure. Traditionally Bhakti Kirtan is done using Indian classical music instruments and Raga system as defined in Indian classical music. ‘Raga’ means ‘mood’, and each raga evokes its characteristic emotional state by employing a particular combination of notes with rules of tone and emphasis.

The practice of Bhakti yoga can lead to complete immersion in the sound and vibrations, with nothing to distract the mind. The magic of chanting the sacred hymns can then carry you inward to listen to your Inner sound.

Chanting and vibrating is the core of Bhakti yoga, and no one cares what you sound like. The magic of vibrating and chanting comes alive when all the voices merge together to become one voice. This union of voices and frequencies will help the seeker to go inward and improve his/her level of awareness.

Yogi Dev Singh will explain the multi-dimensional meaning of Sacred hymns and guide the seekers through the path of chanting/vibrating sacred hymns in the prescribed raga. Conscious seekers should eat vegetarian meals on the day and should use a head cover while chanting.
