“Before the world was, all was in sound. Spirit was in sound. We are made of sound.” -Hazrat Inayat Khan
Vahana is a Grand Rapids, Michigan based group that is ready to bring the healing and heart-opening practice of Kirtan to your Yoga class, concert venue or festival!
The word Vanaha comes from the ancient Sanskrit language and means: bearing, conveying and carrying. In the Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism) every divine form has a Vahana. Vishnu has Garuda. Shiva has Nandi the bull. Lakshmi has Olooka the owl. Ganesh has his humble mouse! Even these powerful forms need something to help ferry them across the worlds. For Vahana, Kirtan is that vehicle…a sonic bridge that leads to peace, happiness and freedom…
Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu!
