JanuaryFriday, January 11 - Focus Friday Kirtan - Michael Nanak Dev & Friends 5:30pm-7:00pm
Join Michael (Nanak Dev) Warren accompanied by Kimberly LeClaire on percussion and Alan Simon on the Tablas for an evening of Kirtan. Kirtan is a yogic meditation practice where a group chants mantras together in a call-and-response arrangement with live music to accompany the chanting. The leader chants a mantra to the group, and then the group repeats that same mantra back by singing the response portion. Kirtan is often very sweet and fun. Overall, it is an empowering practice that gives us the opportunity to come back to this moment again and again, which opens up the doorway to our Original Nature - Peace beyond understanding.
