Kirtan ~ Spiritual Chanting

Second Sunday of Each Month ~ 7:00pm to 8:30pm

LRDC and Journey to Awaken will join together for this special evening of chanting and sharing the spirit of sound. Chanting is an ancient spiritual practice common on many paths. It helps quiet the mind, open the heart and uplift our spirits. This is an interfaith practice event; we will be doing chants from both the Hindu and Buddhist traditions.

"Journey to Awaken" is a local professional ensemble of chant practitioners

This is a very sacred practice that focuses you inward and although the chant is important, it is the silence that follows which moves us. Performers are doing this as part of their Seva "service" and welcome your generous donation.
