We begin with a practice class structured around the “Pūrnamadah” mantra, where we will utilize asana, pranayama, visualization, nyasa, and sound in a holistic exploration of this peace mantra. Peace mantra-s (Śāntih pātha-s) ask for the alleviation of the threefold suffering: brought on by the elements, those around us, and by ourselves.
Chanting exercises will follow. We will learn “Pūrnamadah,” then another peace mantra, “Asato mā.”
Beginners as well as chanters with experience are welcome.
