Ways to Attend
Satsang = Being in Reality Together
Come learn, LAUGH, find community, sing
and remember who you really are.
Satsang is a lively, ancient spiritual practice from India. People gather for a relaxed, “anything goes” conversation about the nature of reality, self-realization, spiritual life, and all aspects of human experience from the most ordinary to the most cosmic.
Exactly what happens at satsang?
We chant some chants. Then Shambhavi leads a free-flowing conversation during which people ask questions about anything. The conversation is followed by open-mic, community kirtan.
Listen to Shambhavi talk about what happens in satsang:
What is community kirtan?
Kirtan is call and response singing accompanied by musical instruments such as harmonium, drums, bells and whatever other instruments people like to play!
We play kirtan together as a community in the ancient style. Anyone can lead the singing, or play an instrument. The emphasis is on having fun and feeling the joy of singing together. We have a harmonium and loads of percussion instruments that anyone can play. Mistakes are part of the fun.
Please join us for these unique and inspiring evenings.
Cost: $10 Suggested Donation, or Give What You Can.
