Book Description

Divine Singing Chaitanya Kabir

Learn Devotional Chants from India - In India, the tradition of chant is revered as the highest form of devotion, a form of vocal meditation that is practiced by common people and saints—"saint-singers" who wander through every village and city of the subcontinent. Through prayer sung from the heart, it is understood, anyone can achieve profound spiritual transformation and ecstasy. Divine Singing is an intensive training course in authentic devotional music, offered in India’s timeless tradition for reaching God through the human voice.

Drawing from 30 years of experience, Kabir teaches a simple, easy-to-follow system you can use to experience the love, longing, and ecstasy hidden within your own voice. Divine Singing is not about religious belief. Rather, it draws from the rich musical world of the Hindus, Sufis, Buddhists, and others to demonstrate how the voice can serve as a direct bridge to the divine. Here, for the first time, is an innovative synthesis of music and spiritual practices, waiting to take you to the realm where your own voice is the bringer of mysteries; a realm where your voice and divine sound are one; the realm of Divine Singing.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Introduction, November 18, 2003

This review is from: Divine Singing (Audio Cassette)
This is a beautiful set of tapes to introduce one to divine singing in the traditions of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. Kabir tells a story behind each song, and then slowly teaches a group of students each chant or song. The listener learns with the group. It is almost as good as being there.
