Kirtan

An evening of sacred chanting

(Please Note: This event replaces the regularly scheduled Wednesday evening community meditation for January 30th.)

Chanting has the power to transform and uplift the soul, and to open the heart.

This evening’s theme will be devotion and attunement to the Guru. We will enter in silence, seeking to stay in a state of openness and attunement throughout the kirtan. Toward the end of the evening each person may choose to offer a candle and a flower upon the altar. If you are making an offering, candles will be provided. Please bring your own flowers.

Chants are simple to learn, words are also provided. We’ll sing beautiful chants in English as well as some Indian chants, accompanied by harmonium and guitar.

This is a beautiful and powerful experience. Through chanting we can experience the living presence of the Divine within us.

SCHEDULE:

• 7:00pm Energization Exercises

• 7:15pm Opening prayer, chanting

• 8:15-8:30 Offering on altar, closing prayer

You may quietly leave at any point, however, if you can willfully stay longer for a deeper experience you will feel the benefits throughout your week.

Everyone welcome, no experience necessary

This event is free. Donations are welcomed
