What is kīrtan, and why do we chant together?

Music, attention and shared spiritual practice.

Introductory editorial content; doctrinal review is required before public publication.

Kīrtan is the communal chanting of sacred names and mantras. In the bhakti-yoga tradition, listening and chanting offer a way to turn attention towards Krishna.

You do not need a good singing voice or to know the words. You may listen, follow the rhythm, repeat the mahā-mantra or simply be present respectfully.

ISKCON Alicante hosts open kīrtan gatherings. Check the latest centre schedule before visiting.
