The Yoga of Sound: Kirtans from the Sacred Forest

One of the oldest sacred music tradtions in the world, kirtan call-and-response chanting originated in India. Consisting of ancient Sanskrit mantras that are sung, the kirtan calls forth deep spiritual energies that quiet the mind, remove obstacles, and allow us to return to the center of our being. In this book-and-CD combination, acclaimed singer Agni Deva offers an evocative interpretation of the kirtans from various sacred songs and Patrick Bernard’s book, richly illustrated with color images of deities and holy sites, provides dazzling devotional poetry, didactic tales, and guides to both meditation and spiritual enlightenment.
