   Yes !! Hebrew kirtan. Why not ? We’ve been preaching all these years just to chant the names of God, any bonafide name. In this VDO you can feel the genuine spirit of glorification of God, just as it should be. Of course, we can also see the obvious influence of Krishna kirtan, with harmonium and dancing and calling it “kirtan” and all. But imitation of a good thing is a good thing. As it is said “Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.” They’ve already got the Star of Laxmi and prayer shawls and Aleph represents Brahman. Why not kirtan ? And, BTW, what a lovely temple.
