The following Text is from Wikipedia - the free encyclopædia.

An Akathist Hymn (Greek: Ἀκάθιστος Ὕμνος, "unseated Hymn") is a type of Hymn usually recited by Eastern Orthodox or Eastern Catholic Christians, dedicated to a Saint, Holy Event, or one of The Three Persons of The Holy Trinity.

The name Akathist derives from the fact that, during the chanting of the Hymn, or sometimes the whole Service, the Congregation is expected to remain standing in reverence, without sitting down (ἀ-, a-, "without, not" and κάθισις, káthisis, "sitting"), except for the aged or infirm.

During Eastern Catholic and Orthodox Christian Religious Services in general, sitting, standing, bowing and the making of prostrations are set by an intricate set of rules, as well as individual discretion. Only during readings of the Gospel and the singing of Akathists is standing considered mandatory for all.
