Pre-Bhaktifest event with
Arjun Baba, The Kirtaniyas and The Temple Bhajan Band at Narayan Mandir
Come and join Arjun Baba and the Kirtaniyas for an amazingly intimate night of blissful chanting and dancing at the Narayan Mandir in Hollywood hills.
This collaboration will feature two artists who share a very “roots” style Kirtan consisting of sweet simple melodies meeting powerful beats that touch the heart.
Both Arjun and The Kirtaniyas have spent time in India studying the systems of Raga (esoteric’s of music ) and sacred rh…ythm. This meets their devotional practice of Bhakti Yoga together making a very effective, powerful Kirtan experience… This will be the highest gathering just over one week before our Bhakti Fest festival in Joshua Tree.
Based in Los Angeles, The Temple Bhajan Band is a group of devotional chanters that tours Yoga Studios, Yoga Retreats, and various social events throughout the world. They have been together since 1999. The heart of the band is Sura whose voice is well known among practitioners of Yoga and Interfaith followers throughout Southern California…
Suggested donation in support of the Kirtan : $15

The Kirtaniyas are an up and coming kirtan band steeped in the pure bhakti traditions of anicent India. These four energetic, multi-talented artists come from a rich, colorful background. They grew up in a Krishna culture of song, dance, philosophy and devotion. At the heart of it all, there was always Kirtan; it owned their passion before they could talk. Come rejoice in the moods of authentic, ecstatic devotional chanting. Experience the nectar!”
“The Kirtaniyas are bright shining stars of the kirtan revolution. Their energy is fresh and uplifting and their music is absolutely intoxicating. They are my favourite kirtan band around!” – Govindas, Bhakti Yoga Shala
