In Guru Granth Sahib, the word 'Kirtan' has a vast meaning. It does not only refer to Kirtan performed on certain instruments. In Guru Granth Sahib, Path, discussing Gurbani with Gursikhs, Almighty's praise, and Katha Vaarta are all synonymous, as written:
"ਹਰਿ ਦਿਨੁ ਰੈਨਿ ਕੀਰਤਨੁ ਗਾਈਐ ॥ ਬਹੁੜਿ ਨ ਜੋਨੀ ਪਾਈਐ"
&
"ਸ੍ਰਵਣੀ ਕੀਰਤਨੁ ਸੁਨਉ ਦਿਨੁ ਰਾਤੀ ਹਿਰਦੈ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਭਾਨੀ"
But Guru Sahiban made Raga arrangements for Kirtanias to perform Gurbani Kirtan in fixed ragas. Guru Granth Sahib has 31 ragas (some say 60), but here the importance is to Bani, not ragas:
"ਰਾਗ ਨਾਦ ਛੋਡਿ ਹਰਿ ਸੇਵੀਐ ਤਾ ਦਰਗਹ ਪਾਈਐ ਮਾਨੁ"
&
"ਰਾਗਿ ਨਾਦਿ ਮਨੁ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ॥ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਕਪਟੁ ਮਹਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਪਾਇ"
&
"ਬਿਲਾਵਲੁ ਤਬ ਹੀ ਕੀਜੀਐ ਜਬ ਮੁਖਿ ਹੋਵੈ ਨਾਮੁ ॥ ਰਾਗ ਨਾਦ ਸਬਦਿ ਸੋਹਣੇ ਜਾ ਲਾਗੈ ਸਹਜਿ ਧਿਆਨੁ"
&
"ਕੋਈ ਗਾਵੈ ਰਾਗੀ ਨਾਦੀ ਬੇਦੀ ਬਹੁ ਭਾਤਿ ਕਰਿ, ਨਹੀ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਭੀਜੈ ਰਾਮ ਰਾਜੇ ॥ ਜਿਨਾ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਕਪਟੁ ਵਿਕਾਰੁ ਹੈ, ਤਿਨਾ ਰੋਇ ਕਿਆ ਕੀਜੈ"
This is the magic of the Bani of Guru Sahibs, and ragas are like vessels in which the sacred Bani is served to our ears, and we all know how it works.
