90-minute Kirtan | SRF Monks Kirtan Group | 2021 SRF World Convocation

[@presentfriendify]

In 1984 I interviewed with the Br. Edgar now Brother Devananda in the main chapel in my desire to become an SRF monk. He suggested Hidden Valley to live the lifestyle of a monk. I went for a 2 week work retreat and remained at HV for 2 years until my acceptance into the Order. After 2 years in postulant training I was transferred to Mt Washington where I worked with Brother Devananda in Monks Personnel and played in the Kirtan Group with him as the leader and I on bells with a group of other monks for 5 years. We often played the 6 hour meditations on Sunday, All Day Christmas Meditations including when Sri Daya Maya led the second half often going into Samadhi. The Kirtan was set up just to her left and I was deeply blessed to sit closest to her for 4 hours of ecstatic communion. I am forever in the Kirtan group each time I chant with these Divine Souls during these recorded meditations. I was also blessed to play at Convocation in 1993 with Devanandaji. Thank you dear Brother for all your love and support on this blessed path! Hey Bhagavan!!
