KIRTAN: The Yogic Practice of Heart-Centred Singing

Bodhi Studio

Atunci cand cantam sunetele vindecatoare ale mantrelor din sanskrita atentia coboara din minte in inima. Kirtan-ul vine din Bhakti Yoga (iubire pura si compasiune), si co-creat de comunitatea prezenta el poate fi manifestat atat intr-o stare linistitoare si dulce cat si intr-o stare ecstatica de bucurie. Poate sa ne miste intr-un mod profund si sa ne aduca o bucurie incredibila sau sa ne aduca intr-un spatiu calm. Sivani Mata si prietenii sai ne vor acompania prin aceste sunete vindecatoare cu muzica live (harmonium si alte instrumente) ca sa ne sprijine calatoria noastra minunata.
Haideti si voi sa va impartasiti inima si vocea in aceasta cantare!

Toata lumea este binevenita

Despre Sivani

Sivani Mata este o studenta a practicii Bhakti Yoga (Yoga iubirii si a devotiunii). Ea a inceput aceasta calatorie participand la diverse intalniri de Kirtan (cantare de mantre) din Londra si din alte tari. Familia GOMA a inspirat-o in mod special sa traiasca in incredere si in spiritul bhakti prin toate aspectele vietii. A inceput sa faciliteze ghidari prin Kirtan dupa ce a petrecut Anul Nou 2009 cu Jai Uttal in tabara lui de Kirtan, si dupa un YTC (Yoga Teacher Training) in Mexic la Institutul de Yoga Yandara, unde o trupa incredibila rezidenta a insitutului, Jaya, a facut Kirtanul un element cheie al practicii.

De atunci Sivani organizeaza cercuri si intalniri de kirtan in UK, si a scos trei albume de Kirtan produse de Tabla Tom, un muzician miraculos de bhakti: I am (2012), Shakti Live (2015) si Surrender (2016). De asemenea si ultimul album Jasmine Garden (2017) care combina Kirtan cu poezie mistica.

Deoarece Sivani s-a indragostit de aceasta practica a organizat si primul festival de muzica Bhakti din UK in august 2011. Acest festival a adus la un loc practici de muzica devotionala din traditii diferite, in spiritul iubirii universale si devotiunii. Dupa aceasta experienta ea organizeaza si BE LOVE – 11 ore de Bhakti intensiv in Londra. Inspirata de practica sa Bhakti, Sivani impartaseste si Yoga Nidra, Yoga pentru Femei, Yoga Restaurativa si Dansul Shakti cu spiritul bhakti, aducand toate aceste practici in inima unde se poate descoperi adevarata natura a fiecaruia.

Sivani Mata este incredibil de recunoscatoare pentru ca a gasit aceasta practica divina si ca o poate impartasi cu prietenii. O puteti gasi pe Sivani pe www.naturalmysticbhajans.co.uk.

EN 
KIRTAN is to come together as a community in songs of freedom.

Singing the profoundly healing sounds of sanskrit mantra effortlessly drops our awareness out of our busy minds and into our hearts. Kirtan is from the path of Bhakti Yoga (pure love and compassion), and co-created by the community present it can manifest as soft and sweet or wild and ecstatic. It can be deeply moving and incredibly joyful, and can bring us to a state of calm and/or elation. Sivani Mata and friends will accompany these healing sounds with live music (harmonium & others) to support our beautiful journey. Come add your heart and voice to the melting pot.

All welcome.

About Sivani

Sivani Mata is a student of Bhakti Yoga (the yoga of love and devotion) and began her journey with this practice through attending various Kirtan (chanting) evenings in London and on her travels. Particularly with family band GOMA, who inspired her to live in trust and bhakti spirit in all aspects of life. She began to lead Kirtan after spending New Year 2009 with Jai Uttal on his Kirtan camp, followed by a Yoga Teacher Training in Mexico at the Yandara Yoga Institute, where an incredible resident kirtan band, Jaya made chanting a key element. Since then Sivani has been running chanting circles and gatherings in the UK, and has released three kirtan albums produced by bhakti musical magician Tabla Tom: I AM (2012), Shakti Live (2015) and Surrender (2016). As well as her most recent release Jasmine Garden (2017) which blends Kirtan with mystic poetry. Having fallen in love with the path of Bhakti Yoga, Sivani organised the UK’s first ever Bhakti Music Festival (in August 2011), which brought devotional musical practices from various traditions together as one, in the spirit of universal love and devotion. Following on from this she now organises BE LOVE ~ 11hour Bhakti Immersions in London. Inspired by her Bhakti Practice, Sivani also shares Yoga Nidra, Women's Yoga, Restorative Yoga and Shakti Dance with bhakti spirit, centring these practices in the heart to unveil ones true nature.
Sivani Mata feels incredibly blessed to have found this divine practice and be able to share it with others
