Vedic Chanting is the ancient art of transmitting the Veda-s orally, from teacher to student, in a strictly prescribed way. This practice hones your listening skills tremendously, improves memory, works to extend the breath fully, and can lead to a deep meditative state.

We will learn Saraswati Prarthana ('Prano devi'), from Taittiriya Samhita 1.8.27. This mantra invokes Saraswati, deity of wisdom and the arts, asking for a sharp mind and creative inspiration. We will chant the increasingly intricate Samhita, Krama, Jata and Ghana recitations.

This course is open to beginners and experienced chanters alike.
Join us for this joyful experience!
