In this Kirtan gathering, we will sing and chant accompanied by the harmonium and khol drum, immersing ourselves in a devotional practice that invokes the mantras of the deities. Through sound, we invite their presence and qualities to awaken within our own hearts and minds. This is a practice of community, where our voices weave together to adorn the presence of our collective sadhana—our shared spiritual journey.
Amritamurti, Chaitanya, Sumeru, Christopher, and Tori — the Jivas — are a group of aspirants and bhaktas, friends from diverse cultures and spiritual traditions, united by a shared love of music. They come together in song to celebrate and explore the mystery and power of mantra.

Chanting mantras and prayers are elements of the Bhakti Yoga path which leads to union with the Divine Consciousness. Chanting calms the nerves, purifies the emotions, heals the body and opens the heart. It elevates and concentrates the mind, preparing one for silent mantra repetition, meditation and communion with the Divine. Chanting done with a devotional attitude lifts the emotions toward selfless, divine love.

His kirtan is couched in the mystical ragas of India and is full of the lively ecstatic joy of the Divine Names. Mangalananda has toured extensively throughout India, Europe and the USA, presenting kirtan concerts, yoga classes and workshop retreats. He is an Acharya (an appointed Spiritual Teacher) of Ma Anandamayi Ashram in Omkareshwar / Indore in the lineage of Sri Anandamayi Ma.
