Kirtan is a form of purification and liberation. The mantras sensitise us and polish away the clutter in our heads and melt the numbness in our hearts so that we can feel clear, awake and brilliantly alive.

Rose warmly invites all to a Kirtan and Potluck dinner to practice and to welcome dear Mayouri back to Otautahi at this time. Mayouri will lead us in a beautifully heartfull practice.

Time: Meeting and greeting at 5pm

Kirtan: 5.30pm

Followed by: Shared plant based kai (please bring food to share)

Venue: 23 Uxbridge Street, Christchurch.

"It was found that during repetitive singing of kirtan,

the brain registers the sound waves, nada,

which influence all other wave patterns of the brain.

These waves awaken alpha rhythms which immediately induce tranquility. 

Thus by singing kirtan, we experience peace of mind."

Swami Satyananda Saraswati
