Chanting (Kiirtan)
The Mantra: Baba Nam Kevalam
“Baba Nam Kevalam” which means: “Infinite Love is the essence of the Supreme Consciousness.” Repeating this mantra purifies the mind, awakens inner peace, and reminds us of our eternal connection to unconditional love.
A Gateway to Meditation
Kiirtan is traditionally practiced before meditation. By singing with sincerity and devotion, the mind becomes light and focused, naturally flowing inward towards stillness and self-realisation.
The Practice of Chanting (Kiirtan)
Kiirtan is the ancient yogic practice of chanting or singing sacred mantras to awaken devotion, calm the mind, and create uplifting vibrations. Through rhythm, melody, and repetition, kiirtan opens the heart, harmonises the body and mind, and leads the practitioner into a meditative state of joy and expansion.
Unlike ordinary songs, kiirtan carries vibrational power. Each sound is infused with spiritual energy, allowing the practitioner to connect with the deeper essence of life.
"Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife."
