Hey Dhamma practitioners/ meditators/Buddhists, what’s up with all the kirtan?
-
I don’t know how much detail you’re interested in, but Buddhist practices similar to kirtan can be found especially in the yogic song traditions. Three main types are Doha, Vajragiti, and Caryagiti. Although traditions categorise variously. One can look at this in many ways...
How one explores these practices depends on why you’re interested. Yogic songs can be used like kirtan to invoke feelings/states etc, or they can be used as a sort of energetic massage (similar to pranayama), or they can be used to codify teachings....and so on Blah blah blahpic.twitter.com/45DMLqHUzc
