BLISSFUL KIRTAN ~ Sun 25 Apr

BLISSFUL KIRTAN

Honour your Self! Celebrate your Self!

Come sing your Heart open! Experience the inner peace and joy that are your true nature. Express your love, reverence and devotion for the Divine, whatever name or form you may wish to adopt to call on the One that is in All and Everything. All spiritual traditions are honoured in the sacred chanting circle. Realize the unity that lies beyond the diversity of the phenomenal world. We all smile in the same language! True masters proclaim that there is only one universal religion... the Religion of LOVE! Let us all endeavour to live it... in every moment.

No previous kirtan experience is necessary to participate. All voices and instruments are welcome to join other kindred Souls in creating healing sound vibrations.

BLISSFUL KIRTAN ~ SUN 11 APR

BLISSFUL KIRTAN

Honour your Self! Celebrate your Self!

You are cordially invited to join us in the inner exploration of the creative power of sound and vibration. Every vowel and every consonant in the sacred chants, as well as the tone and rhythm of the music has its effect upon the mind and body. As they become "refined" by this simple practice, the Self reaches a higher state of perfection and is led to a subtler, divine world of sound and "be"ing where a type of ecstasy can be experienced, a Bliss of happiness and inner peace, which is the Soul's true nature and everyone's birthright.

All voices and instruments are welcome, and no previous kirtan experience is necessary to participate. HARI OM!
