And they’re taking kirtan out of the temples and the yoga studios, and into dance halls, universities, cathedrals, and other unexpected places.<br />
<br />
In the last decade, India’s ancient call-and-response form of chanting has been reinvented by modern devotional artists who are blending traditional kirtan with modern music genres such as rock, R&B, hip hop, and electronica—breathing new life (and new devotion) into yoga’s sacred chants. But what, exactly, are these chants about?<br />
<br />
According to kirtan artist and bhakti yoga educator David Newman, kirtan means “to praise that which is exalted”—aka, the divine. The word “kirtan” also stems from a Sanskrit root that means “to cut through,” he says, so kirtan is also “a practice for cutting through the idea of separation, for connecting to our hearts and connecting to the moment through sound.”<br />

So what exactly should I be devoted to?<br />
There is a text that says: " If I am Shiva, and you are Shiva, and all is Shiva, then in which direction should I bow?"<br />
So who is the most important person here? Not me, not you, but everybody!<br />
Your heart is at the centre of the universe, so look in it, if you wanna find something!<br />

</div>
The indian harmonum or pump-organ is used in Kirtan, Bhajans and all kinds of other Indian music. In every ashram or temple you are likely to find one, and many people can play some songs on it. Also used in classical music it is very popular in indian folk and popular music.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonium" target="_blank">Wikipedia</a> on harmonum<br />
During the mid-19th century, missionaries brought French-made hand-pumped harmoniums to India. The instrument quickly became popular there: it was portable, reliable and easy to learn. It has remained popular to the present day, and the harmonium remains an important instrument in many genres of Indian music. For example, it is a staple of vocal North Indian classical music concerts. It is commonly found in Indian homes. Though derived from the designs developed in France, the harmonium was developed further in India in unique ways, such as the addition of drone stops and a scale-changing mechanism.<br />

If you want to learn to play the harmonium the <a href="http://www.bhaktibreakfastclub.com/" target="_blank">Bhakti Breakfast Clu</a>b provides instructional video's on playing harmonium with Kirtan <br />
<br />
From the website <a href="http://www.keshav-music.com/paulco.php" target="_blank">keshav-music.com</a><br />
About harmoniums: The harmonium, which was practically an unknown instrument in the USA as recently as 1989, has now become incredibly popular due to kirtan artists Krishnadas and Jai Uttal as well as Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Harmoniums are showing up on recordings by Paul Simon, Tom Petty, Tom Waits, Beck . . . the list goes on forever. Originally the harmonium was frowned up in Indian music because of it’s foreign origins but gradually it became accepted and embraced. Over time the harmonium has replaced the traditional sarangi, and sarod, as number one instrument for accompanying vocals, much to the chagrin of sarod and sarangi players. The harmonium is originally a French instrument. Harmoniums came to India in the 1800s and were used by colonialists for playing church music at home. Indians adapted the harmonium for their own use and developed different tunings for it. Traditionally harmoniums are tuned in what is known as “equal tempered ” tuning. But Indians with no experience of European tuning standards, developed what is known as “just” tuning. A “just tuned” harmonium is set up by tuning the middle part of the keyboard to a pitch specific to the singer’s vocal range. The remainder of the harmoniums reeds are then tuned by ear to match rather than by tuning meter. A just-tuned harmonium is only useful for playing in one key. Whereas . . . an equal-tuned harmonium should be tuned to A-440 from end-to-end. An equal-tuned harmonium will sound good in any key. Gradually, harmonium players in India are abandoning the “just-tuned” standard, and are more and more often playing equal-tuned harmoniums. The majority of harmoniums shipped out of India are continue to be “just-tuned” and many are as much as 15 “cents” sharp. A harmonium that is only say, 2 “cents” sharp will be sonically compatible with synthesizers and pianos. A harmonium that is 15 “cents” sharp will sound okay by itself, but will sound discordant when played alongside a synthesizer or piano tuned to A-440. Most harmoniums utilize two banks of male and bass brass harmonium reeds. Scale-changer harmoniums and other high-end harmoniums utilize three banks of harmonium reeds. Harmoniums with three banks of reeds are manufactured with sets of Bass/Male/Male or Bass/Male/Female and are usually configured with 3.25 and 3.50 octave keyboards. Harmoniums with four banks of reeds are rare. Delhi-built harmoniums and Calcutta-built harmoniums have distinctly different sound qualities. Delhi-built harmoniums use a different grade of brass making the harmonium sound brighter and sharper when new. This style of harmonium reed however becomes mellower with playing over time and gives a very distinctive sound, typified by the Signature 23 as played by Krishnadas, and on the very old Bina models played by Jai Uttal. Calcutta harmoniums utilize harmonium reeds made in Palitana or some equivalent alloy make-up that makes them sound mellower right at the start. Occasionally one hears of people looking for harmoniums with “French” reeds or “German” reeds. These types of harmonium reeds have not been produced in at least 70 years and simply are not available. We do on special order build harmoniums with what are called “English Reeds” which are a perfect copy of classic British harmonium reeds made to exacting standards from special steel harmonium reed materials. Steel harmonium reeds are not as warm sounding as brass harmonium reeds but are more stable. Steel harmonium reeds too, are very difficult to tune but hold pitch longer due to the stability of the steel alloy used in these harmonium reeds. Folding harmoniums are popular because of their small size, which allows the harmonium to be taken on airline flights as carry-on and stored in the overhead. Non-folding harmoniums however, will have a wider breadth of sound because they have double the wind-chest capacity and are often preferred by studio musicians for recording purposes. Scale-changer harmoniums utilize a mechanical device that allows the keyboard of the harmonium to be slid up or down for instant transposing. A well-built scale-changer harmonium can be trouble free for many years. A scale-changer harmonium built with “green” or uncured wood however, will warp and be a nightmare. Scale-changer harmoniums are better suited for players that will maintain them in one place like a home, studio, or a temple. The knobs or “stops” on the harmonium are generally set up 1st/ 3rd/ 5th/ 7th/ for the ones that activate the harmonium’s wind-chest sections that supply air to each bank of the harmonium‚s reeds. The harmonium stops in the 2nd/ 4th/ 6th/ 8th positions will be “drones”. Harmonium drones are traditionally tuned to the black keys as these are preferred for use in Hindustani style playing. Keshav Music Imports builds the Signature 23 Harmonium with the reeds in the white keys for our Western customers. Another feature on all our harmoniums is the octave-coupler. The octave-coupler mechanically connects the note played to the same note one octave above or one octave below. The majority of harmoniums produced in India are built with pine. However nearly all scale-changers and high-end harmoniums are built with teak. Pine produces a softer, diffused quality, whereas teak produces a deeper, and “darker” quality. Neither quality is “preferable” in a harmonium. The preferred quality for a harmonium's sound is subjective to the player. While Keshav Music Imports sells all Indian instruments, the harmonium has been and continues to be our main focus. Keshav Das has spent years working directly alongside the luthiers that build our instruments and learned tuning and repairs at the Bina harmonium factory, the DMS harmonium factory and the Monoj Kumar Sardar harmonium factory. He personally checks all harmoniums for tuning and keyboard set-up before they are packed. <br />

quoted from <a href="http://www.newworldkirtan.com/">www.newworldkirtan.com</a><br />
<br />
Kirtan is a very different kind of music. Based on ancient chants, it has the ability to quiet the mind if listened to with intention. Everyone experiences kirtan differently, and it doesn’t have to be a religious experience. You can think of it as a sing-along. A kirtan concert is not your typical concert either. Everyone sits on the floor, although chairs are usually available. The performers are accessible, in fact there’s not much of a distinction between performers & audience. The wallah (leader) sings the mantra, and the audience sings it back. A single chant can go on for up to forty minutes. As you sing with each other you experience a deep connection with the musicians, the other audience members and yourself. And when the music stops, your mind is quiet.<br />
<br />
Because kirtan has roots in India, many of the songs are sung in Sanskrit. Some I choose for the New World Kirtan podcast are also in Punjabi, the language of the Sikhs. If you’ve ever chanted responses in Latin or Hebrew in your religious tradition, then you know how powerful singing in an ancient, holy language can be. You can be completely immersed in the sound, with no words to distract the mind. The magic of the chants can then carry you within.<br />
<br />
Kirtan is non-denominational, the Universal language of Spirit, the song of the Soul.<br />

Ook in 2013 is er met Carnaval weer een “Dansen met de Goden” in
Den Bosch. Kirtan en Mantra’s zingen Kirtan-style: call-response vorm
(vraag-en-antwoord) met de uitdrukkelijke mogelijkheid tot meeklappen,
bewegen, dansen en wat er nog meer opkomt. Uitbunbigheid wisselt af met
Rust. Beweging wisselt af met verstilling. Na afloop weer de inmiddels
beroemde vegetarische erwtensoep, pannenkoeken, en chai.</div>
Kirtan-Mantra-Carnaval als opening van de carnaval, als (voortijdige)
opening van een nieuwe lente, als opening voor de energie in alle
chakra s, maar vooral om het leven te vieren en te genieten. Er zal ook
een stuk <a href="http://kirtan.nu/stembevrijdend-kirtanzingen/" title="Stembevrijdend Kirtanzingen">stembevrijdend kirtanzingen</a> inzitten, om een beetje los en (zonder alcohol) in de stemming te komen.<br />
<br />De lokatie van deze feestelijke happening is aan de van IJsselsteinstraat 11, Den Bosch, 1e verdieping (<a href="http://www.yogabijmaya.nl/nl/09contact.html" target="_blank">Yoga bij Maya</a>).<br /><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"In India zeggen ze dat wat we zingen bij Kirtan de Goddelijke Namen zijn, de Namen van God (de Bron, het Universum, het Licht etc). En ze zeggen dat deze Namen uit een plek binnenin onszelf komen. Dus door ze te herhalen te zingen, dalen we dieper af in ons eigen Zijn. En de oefening is heel eenvoudig:<u><b> je zingt, en het moment dat je ziet of merkt dat je aandacht afdwaalt,</b></u> dat je ergens over aan het denken bent, of dat je aan het fantaseren bent over iemand naast je, <u><b>dan kom je gewoon terug naar het zingen. Telkens, en telkens, en telkens weer, je laat gewoon los inkomt terug.</b></u> En dat is de hele oefening. Geleidelijk aanleren we om "dieper" in ons Zelf te zitten/zijn, en de gedachtes en emoties die ons weghalen, beginnen door ons heen te passeren, zonder ons te pakken. Je ontwikkelt een innerlijke sterkte, en dat is wat we nodig hebben."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">en uit een intervieuw in Onkruid</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">“Als je thuis zingt en het voelt niet goed, denk je al snel dat je het
niet goed doet of dat de oefening niet deugt. Maar het gaat niet om het
creëren van een fijne sfeer. <u><b>Het enige wat telt is dat je begint waar je
nu bent.</b></u> We hechten ons aan mooie muziek, een goede sfeer, een fijn
gevoel. Daar gaat kirtan helemaal niet over. Kirtan heeft niets te maken met het tijdelijk creëren van een staat van
geluk of plezier. We herhalen de namen, zodat die namen hun werk kunnen
doen. Ik kan het niet vaak genoeg zeggen: mijn oefening is niet
zingen! <u><b>Mijn oefening is proberen in het hier en nu te zijn, en zingen
helpt mij daarbij</b></u>. Kirtan is geen muzikale oefening."</span><br />
<br />

het zingen van Kirtan. Dit vindt plaats bij Yoga Maarssen, Nassaustraat 16-2. Later komt er ook een middag in het
Cordium in Nijmegen, en wie weet ook Den Bosch.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">In West-Europa wordt er vaak erg “beschaafd” gezongen: ingetogen, ingehouden, voorzichtig, mooi en netjes. Er wordt veel rekening gehouden met de anderen, of je hen stoort, wat ze er wel niet van denken etc., past wat ik zing wel bij wat de anderen zingen?<br />In India wordt er vaak lustig op los gebruld, af en toe knijtervals, ongeremd en met volle overgave. Wat de anderen ervan vinden komt niet eens in ze op, en of je een ander stoort al helemaal niet.<br />Én: reik je tijdens het zingen uit naar boven, naar het Hogere? Of ben je met de voeten op de grond? Ben je in de Hemel, of op aarde? Hoofd in de wolken, of voeten op de grond?<br />Én: zing je zachtjes en voorzichtig, alleen voor jezelf, of hard en naar buiten met elkaar?<br />Én niet als laatste: zit je stil, beweeg je mee, dans je mee, of spring je mee?<br />Deze middag gaan we al deze uitersten verkennen, kijken we wat het effect hiervan is, en gaan we samen onderzoeken hoe we tot een persoonlijke mix en combinatie hiervan kunnen komen in het Kirtan-zingen: van naar-binnen-gekeerd en meditatief, naar uitbundig, vol overgave en expressief, en weer terug.</span><br />

waves, and then listen to the space between the waves. Find yourself in
that space.” This is where the kirtan had carried us, to this space,
this deep silence between the waves. As Manish spoke to us, I could
still feel the mantra coursing through my bloodstream with each
heartbeat, Snatam’s voice carrying on into the silence. I felt such a
sense of joy, my heart wanted to burst. I looked around and saw my
emotions mirrored in the expressions of the people surrounding me. And
suddenly, there was no space between the person next to me and me. We
became so deeply connected by that shared experience, that there was an
intimacy created beyond explanation. I did not know these people before
we arrived at this kirtan event, but we left as family.<br />
This experience of deep connectedness and community is being
expressed by people attending kirtan gatherings and concerts all over
the world. For many, kirtan has become their favorite practice of
devotion, but for some, kirtan is a completely new experience. The idea
of chanting in a group is completely foreign to them.<br />
