Kirtana (Sanskrit: कीर्तन; IAST: Kīrtana), also rendered as Kirtan or Keertan, is a Sanskrit word that means "narrating, reciting, telling, describing" of an idea or story, specifically in Indian religions. It also refers to a genre of devotional performance arts, connoting a musical form of narration or shared recitation, particularly of spiritual or religious ideas, native to the Indian subcontinent. A person performing kirtan is known as a kirtankara (or kirtankar, कीर्तनकार).

Why Do We Chant Kirtan? Chanting kirtan is a devotional practice that helps to uplift the mind, open the heart and bring inner peace. It is one of the fastest, easiest and most joyful ways to achieve peace of mind. The mantras are mystical universal sounds that resonate at our chakra level and are believed to remove stagnant and heavy energies.
