Are you ready for an expanded and illuminated perspective?
It takes 40 days to rewire, form, and establish a new habit. Over the course of 40 days we will immerse in the healing sound vibration of the Sāvitrī Gāyatrī mantra. The short form of this mantra is one of the most widely chanted to awaken to the ‘light beyond the light.’ Anyone who chants this mantra with sincerity, will purify the mind and experience spiritual fulfillment. In this course we will learn the long form, a more potent variation that is just now surfacing to awaken hearts and minds personally and collectively.
Your Commitment:
• 4 x 75-minute meetings & group practices
• 20 minutes mantra meditation daily
Meetings: Sundays 1/5, 1/19, 2/2, 2/16 All meetings are recorded.
Time: 11:30 am - 12:45 pm
Cost: $165, $145 Members
