Dihanaam is a type of congregational prayer sung by women in Assam in praise of the Assamese saint Sankardev. Instruments like the Negera, taal, khol and also hand-clapping is used in it. The lyrics of Dihanam are primarily derived from Vaishnava scriptures including the Kirtan Ghosha, Nam Ghosha, and Borgeet.^[1] Over time, Dihanam has evolved from its early roots in the Ekasarana tradition, and contemporary practice includes both traditional renditions in religious congregations and modern interpretations in cultural events.^[1] The songs are sung in call and response style.^[2]
