Kirtan is a form of devotional singing in the Hindu tradition, often involving call-and-response chanting. Participants sing the names and praises of deities, creating a communal atmosphere that fosters spiritual connection and devotion. Typically accompanied by musical instruments like the harmonium and tabla, Kirtan can take place in temples, homes, or during festivals. It serves as a way to express love and devotion, making spirituality accessible and engaging for people of all ages.
