I awoke to the sounds of stomping feet and beating drums. There was a contagious buzz already surrounding the group the morning of the event. Gaura’s house was filled with busy people. Some were rehearsing, some were ironing, some were rushing from here to there to help with the preparations for the event but everyone [...]

WHAT HAPPENED? I love this kirtan. This video has been a really popular download on the web for a while and we are adding it to our collection here. One note right at the top here, His Holiness Radhanath Swami is the one who directed this whole mad, mad, mad affair. All credit goes to [...]

Hot off the editing table, become inspired by these realizations and recaps from the 24 Hour Kirtan Festival 2008. Immediately following the completion of the 24 hours, we went and asked the participants to share any realizations that came to them. Here’s what followed.

The time is fast approaching for our first trip (for most of us) to Burning Man. What is Burning Man you ask? It is the most insane art, music, culture, party festival/city held annually in a salt-flat desert in Nevada. Around 60 thousand people attend bringing along all sorts of art, sculpture, structures, ideas, costumes [...]

Don’t worry though, we have a great video coming out soon of all the Kirtan attendees expressing their thoughts and realizations right after the Kirtan completion. [...]

Enjoy these two new videos from the New Vrindavan 24 Hour Hare Krishna Kirtan. Visvambhar heats up the mood with a beautiful tune then Acyuta Gopi takes over with a spine tingling kirtan. We just noticed that YouTube now allows you to view the video in high quality. There is a small link underneath the [...]

Well the New Vrindavan 24 Hour Kirtan Festival is over. For those who were there, it was an experience that will be remembered for the rest of time. Our friend Sri Ram recorded the entire 24 hours (talk about endurance) so as soon as we receive the files from him, we will put them up [...]

We had another session of live kirtan recordings at the Sri Sri Radha Madana Mohana temple in Potomac Maryland as part of our Capital Kirtans series. Pictures and MP3s will be up soon. We’ve also been working on lots of slighting boring yet [...]
