KEYNOTE PRESENTATION 12:30 pm
"Musical Mantras"
Join us for the powerful experience of Kirtan, the practice of call and response chanting of mantras, rooted in the ancient Indian path of devotion and love for the Divine, known as Bhakti Yoga. This timeless practice transcends words, weaving melody, rhythm, and vibration into a profound experience of connection and transformation.
​
Through the repetition of mantras, Kirtan quiets the mind and draws us into stillness. The vibrations of the chants reverberate through the body, dissolving energetic blocks, opening the heart, and awakening the Spirit. It is both a communal celebration and a deeply personal meditation, inviting you to let go, surrender, and connect to the Divine within.​​
Whether you are new to chanting or a longtime practitioner, Kirtan offers a space for healing, joy, and spiritual awakening. Come as you are and allow the power of mantra to guide you into a state of peace, love, and presence.
