Hastings and St Leonards Community Kirtan

Hastings and St Leonards Community Kīrtan
Sunday 29th November | 7–9pm
Bank House Studio, St Leonards-on-Sea

A Sanskrit sound journey of love, devotion and remembrance.

Come and join us for a beautiful evening of community Kīrtan, where we gather in sacred space to sing, sound, pray and open our hearts through the transformative power of Sanskrit mantra.

Kīrtan is a devotional practice of call-and-response chanting, inviting us out of our busy minds and into the wisdom of our hearts and bodies. Accompanied by harmonium, drum and the power of our collective voices, we journey together through sound, rhythm, stillness and devotion.

Our gatherings are a little different from conventional Kīrtan. We begin in circle, opening ceremonial space with prayer and intention, before moving into the mantras and allowing the evening to unfold organically. There is space for joy, celebration, tenderness, grief, silence and whatever else may arise. All of it is welcome.

We close by returning to circle, allowing time to land, share and integrate our experience together.

No previous experience of Kīrtan, Sanskrit or singing is necessary. You don't need to know the words or consider yourself a singer. Simply come as you are, with an open heart and a willingness to participate.

All voices are welcome.

I look forward to welcoming you into the circle.

With love,
