Everyone wants to be happy. Some of us seek happiness through family, career or social life. Others look for it in politics, arts, academia, natural healthy living or many other activities. All of these endeavors represent our endless quest for satisfaction and pleasure. However, the basic problem in our search for happiness is that all of these sources of pleasure are limited and temporary. Mantra meditation enables us to expand our pleasure beyond present limitations. Through the mystical power of transcendental sound, inner happiness can be experienced instantly and directly because it operates beyond the boundaries of time and space and emanates from the core of our being.
Mantra meditation is a process for reviving our original, pure consciousness through the medium of transcendental sound. In this workshop, Devamrita Swami, an Urban Monk who has practiced Mantra meditation for nearly 40 years, will explain to us how to use these sound vibrations to attain extraordinary states of happiness. Mantra meditation is a very simple process that can be easily adopted by anyone. This workshop will enable participants to experience the uplifting power of sublime sound through chanting and singing timeless Sanskrit mantras. Our voices will be accompanied by eastern instruments like the mrdnga drum, karatals (hand cymbals), and harmonium.
