“Mantra fills the space that might otherwise be filled with mental noise with sacred sound that leads us back to pure consciousness, because this is its origin” ~ Shiva Tigunait
the immersion
A 5-week journey to begin, and or deepen, your exploration of mantra, kirtan and playing the harmonium.
Together we’ll begin to explore some of the building blocks that help to nurture our relationship with and to this beautiful practice, that seeks to purify the heart and steady the mind.
It is a beginning to inform all other beginnings. A scratch on the surface of something incredibly vast. A place to welcome your curiosity with open arms so that the spark of interest can further deepen through the meeting point of intellect and heart, of theory and embodied experience.
All levels are welcome. Playing the harmonium will be a key component of the course so it is essential to have one (whether it's your own, or one you can borrow for the duration).
