What we’re about
Hello spirit soul!
Welcome to Joshua Tree Kirtan Mantra Meditation By Spirit Soul And Friends®
We are delighted that you have visited us today. This wonderful MeetUp group is created to keep you in touch with Kirtan Mantra Meditation events in Joshua Tree and surrounding areas. We look forward to chanting with you at the incredible events that are forthcoming.
WHAT IS KIRTAN?
Kirtan is when more than one person gets together to joyously sing or chant various Mantras. Man means mind, Tra means that which frees; A mantra is a sound vibration that frees or delivers the mind from its attachment and preoccupation with worldly matters, and focuses it on the Supreme. Every day we hear sounds that increase our attachment and preoccupation with worldly matters, so obviously not just any sound is a mantra. Only words that have the spiritual potency to free us from material conditioning are Mantras. The only words with that spiritual potency are any sound coming from God such as His Names and Words because they are nondifferent from Him, and are as pure and purifying as God Himself.
Kirtan is completely non-sectarian and non-denominational because the universal principle for spiritual reawakening through singing the Names of God is recommended in the Bible (both Old and New Testaments), Koran and Vedic Scriptures.
Kirtan is a spiritual tool to purify one's consciousness and bring the soul real peace and happiness; Peaceful individuals create a peaceful society.
There Should Never Be a Charge For Kirtan
According to Yoga texts, it is forbidden to charge for Kirtan and teaching spiritual truths because these should be freely available to everyone, not just those who can afford it. Therefore, we do not list on Joshua Tree Kirtan Mantra Meditation MeetUp any kirtan events that require payment for admission.
Taking part in or learning about Kirtan has nothing to do with having enough money, having a melodious voice, or becoming a professional kirtan leader, singer or musician. Anyone can chant, sing, dance and participate in Kirtan at no cost—so bring yourself, children, family, friends and musical instruments!
We look forward to seeing you and your family at one of the many upcoming events.

Spirituality • Unaffiliated
We had such a great time at our first event in Encinitas we added a second, so come again and bring a friend. And if you missed it before, we’d love to see you there!Step into another world
Where meditation meets celebration.We begin with a mantra and a melody, an invitation to let Yoga Sound do its work. Instead of battling your mind, you feel lighter, as if your whole being can breathe freely. Gradually, the kirtan carries you from deep calm to pure joy.
Ride the wave of transcendental sound
As the kirtan builds, the energy swells like a rising wave. Some sit back and let it wash over them, others dive right in—singing and dancing freely. Time seems to stand still and you feel fully present, knowing this is exactly where you’re meant to be.Why we share this
For thousands of years, people have sung these mantras to uncover inner peace and fulfillment. The yoga sages call kirtan the easiest and most effective form of meditation. Why? Because these sacred sounds awaken the love and joy already there in our heart.
Kirtan has changed our lives—that’s why we share it. And in sharing, we’ve seen how it brings people together across backgrounds and beliefs, creating a sense of unity the world needs now more than ever.What People Tell Us
We see it all the time—people who come as strangers leave as friends, those who arrive anxious leave calm, and hearts open.
"I didn't know I could feel this peaceful."
"I've been meditating for years, but this was different."
"Although I'd never heard the mantras before, they felt very familiar and comforting."Everyone is welcome
Whether you’ve been to kirtan a hundred times or this is your first, just come as you are. Bring friends or make new ones here. This isn’t a performance—it’s something we create together, and every voice belongs.
Don’t just hear about it—be part of it.1 attendee
