online Kirtan party

ravi ji has just posted this most beautifull verse from the Srimad Bhagavatam (11.14.24) ......

One whose throat is choked by emotions at the height of devotional ecstasy; one who sheds tears of bliss because the heart has become absorbed in bliss; one who bursts out laughing in the intoxication of supreme devotion; one who, giving up all false modesty, sings loudly and dances -- such a person purifies the whole world.

.......which just makes me think it is time for a kirtan party , .....

please join in ...post your favorite most joyfull bhajans for everyone to enjoy , let us all share wonderfull kirtan together and purify the ''whole world''......

Vanakkam Ratikala,

What a wonderful thread! Kirtan is on of my favorite ways of connected with the Lord (puja is the other). Here are couple of my favorites.

This first one has a special place in my heart as it was the first time I was really introduced to Krishna and it moved me so much!

Krishna Das - All One ( Hare Krishna ) Full Version - YouTube

And this one isn't quite kirtan but it is so blissful- Narayana Kavacham

Sri Narayana Kavacham - UmaMohan- - YouTube

This one has beautiful scenes :)

Namaste,

Very nice to see (and hear) such spirit of celebration; I hope it will not spoil the mood if I add some bhajans showing different languages, different styles, some many miles
apart, but all praising Devi..

Here is a sweet poem of a great devotee of the Lord which I would like to share here. :namaste



When will I hear

the auspicious names of Kanna

sounding in my ears?

And upon hearing them

when will my hairs stand on end

And I will be immersed in tears?



Being immersed in tears, when will I become pure?

And in that state of absolute purity,

When will I sing His names

spontaneously?



And as I sing in ecstasy,

When will I forget the earth and the sky?

And forgetting everything

when will I dance

in utter devotion?

And as I dance,

will my steps

sweep the stains

from the stage of the world?




In that playful dance

in which I sweep all stains away,

I will cry out loud

And through that cry,

Will my purity be sent

in the eight directions?



And when the play has been enacted

When will I fall at last

into my Mother's lap?

And lying on my Mother's lap

when will I sleep blissfully?



As I sleep

when will I dream

of the beautiful form of Sri Krishna

Who dwells within my heart ?

And as I wake up

when will I see Sri Krishna,

The enchanter of the world?

I'm Saivite, but I love some of the Vaishnava bhajans to Krishna, especially some of the newer ones...

Ever since Lagaan this by the delightful Lata Mangeshkar

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vv4UV9O5drw

And this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chHkGBIdnoU

I suppose my absolute favourite Bhajan of all time is the traditional Hara Hara Amarnathe Gange, Kashi Vishwanath Gange. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ue0lrdlzqM

I suppose for me, it isn't so much the words (because for the most part Hindi Bhajans I don't understand fully, and sanskrit bhajans I use in my own practice are chanted mantras) but it's the energy of a song that gets me going. The American musician Krishna Das, devotee of Guru Neem Karoli Baba really has a great sense of energy, even in his recordings. There are two particular favorites:

A particularly energetic version of the Hare Krishna MahaMantra:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoSQKiowwiQ

And a rendition of Aum Namah Shivaya which is so powerful to listen to, the way he builds the energy up! Gets me going everytime. It became a very important part of my practice this particular rendition.

Oh gosh that annoys me because they carelessly mix up verses of the achyutAShTakam (I have OCD, lol); anyway, isn't it by an Art of Living singer?

There is absolutely no bhakti in that song; I just see kAm and lAlach (perhaps if you understood all of the lyrics you would know what I'm talking about, :))..

praNAm,
Put that stuff after v= in (youtube)....(/youtube) tags (except with brackets, i.e. [] rather than parentheses).
So for your video, you would write it like "[youtube]IajM-tLxPFc[/youtube]"
