The Kirtana-Ghosha is a highly revered collection of devotional songs (kirtans) in Assamese literature, primarily composed by the 15th-16th century Vaishnava saint and reformer, Srimanta Sankaradev. It is considered a foundational text of the Ekasarana Dharma (Neo-Vaishnavite) movement he founded in Assam.

Srimanta Sankaradev (c. 1449–1568) was a towering figure in the cultural and religious history of Assam, contributing significantly to literature, music, dance, drama, and religious philosophy. His disciple Madhavdev wrote the Nama Ghosha, another important devotional text in Assamese.
