NOCHE DE KIRTAN·BHAKTI Y COMUNIDAD 

Encuentro de canto devocional, oración y apertura del corazón

La comunidad de México está amorosamente invitada a una Noche de Kirtan muy especial, un encuentro de canto devocional, oración y apertura del corazón, inspirado en las enseñanzas eternas de Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaji), quien nos recordó con simplicidad y profundidad: “Ama a todos, sirve a todos y recuerda a Dios.”

Sobre el Evento: En esta velada sagrada nos reunimos para cantar, disolver las barreras del ego y volver juntos al espacio del amor incondicional. El kirtan no es un concierto: es una ofrenda colectiva, una meditación viva donde cada voz importa y cada corazón es bienvenido.

Cantaremos junto a NINA RAO, una de las voces más reconocidas del Kirtan contemporáneo a nivel internacional. Discípula directa de la tradición Bhakti transmitida por Maharaji y muchos más. Nina comparte el canto como un camino de sanación, entrega y recuerdo del Ser. Su música nace del silencio, la práctica y el amor, y ha acompañado a miles de personas alrededor del mundo en su camino espiritual. Esta noche es una invitación a:

• Recordar quienes somos

• Cantar más allá de la mente

• Sentirnos sostenidos por La Sangha

• Dejar que el corazón guíe el camino

No necesitas experiencia previa, solo traer tu presencia, tu voz tal como es y el deseo de cantar juntos

NIGHT OF KIRTAN, BHAKTI AND COMMUNITY 

A gathering of devotional singing, prayer, and opening of the heart

The community of Mexico is lovingly invited to a very special Kirtan Night, a gathering of devotional singing, prayer and opening of the heart , inspired by the eternal teachings of Neem Karoli Baba (Maharaji) , who reminded us with simplicity and depth: “Love everyone, serve everyone and remember God.”

About the Event: On this sacred evening, we gather to sing, dissolve the barriers of the ego, and return together to the space of unconditional love. Kirtan is not a concert: it is a collective offering, a living meditation where every voice matters and every heart is welcome.

We will sing alongside Nina Rao, one of the most renowned voices in contemporary Kirtan internationally. A direct disciple of the Bhakti tradition passed down by Maharaji and many others. Nina shares singing as a path to healing, surrender, and remembrance of the Self. Her music is born from silence, practice, and love, and has accompanied thousands of people around the world on their spiritual journey. The night is an invitation to:

• Remember who we are

• Singing beyond the mind

• Feeling supported by the Sangha

• Let your heart guide the way

You don't need any prior experience, just bring your presence, your voice as it is, and the desire to sing together.

Nina Rao is going back to the Shala!

Bring in the end of this year chanting in community with a special sound journey with Arjun Bruggeman. No experience required. Please register in advance to save your spots for you and your friends.

Krishna Das and his Friends return to Maui to continue the Ram Dass Legacy Thanksgiving Sunday Maui Satsang / Kirtan.

The program resumed after the Pandemic / Lahaina fires in it’s new home at the Napili Kai Beach Resort’s Aloha Pavilion, 2021 to current 2025.

Participants are encouraged to bring their generous organic boxed or canned food donations that are collected in the Maui Food Bank Food Bins the next day.

About the Event

Join us for an evening of kirtan, music, and satsang with Nina Rao and Arjun Bruggeman to raise awareness and funds for saving wild tigers and their habitats across India -the Land of the Tiger. Dr. K. Ullas Karanth, conservation biologist and leading expert on tigers, will share some words of wisdom with us.

India is the last viable habitat for wild tigers and one of the most biologically diverse regions in Eurasia. Protecting this ecosystem means safeguarding not just tigers, but also elephants, langurs, deer, birds, rivers, plants, and the sacred balance of nature itself. This concert is a celebration of India’s living tradition of honoring wildlife as sacred embodiments of Mother Earth. Through intentional prayer, chanting, and community, let us come together to protect nature and give thanks.
