Akaaaaal

Sat Nam all,
Please consider chanting Akal for our dear sister's husband who recently passed. Ram Kaur's husband, John Bloebaum, died on Aug 27 from a heart attack.
Here's a short article on this mantra that supports the soul's transition from the physical realm.

Open Lotus Heart Meditation

When the Heart Center is strong and open, old wounds can heal and defenses begin to drop away.
We are most aligned with our real Self when we have the strength to stay open and connected.

May 13 - June 21

This is our "All Camp Meditation" that we'll practice together during our Solstice gathering. Practice for 3-11 minutes. Use your own sound current or chant along with a recording. We like Ram Singh's.

Humee Hum Brahm Hum means "We are We, We are ONE"

Full Moon Meditation

Ravijot Kaur is hosting a Full Moon Meditation on Thursday, Jan 28. Please join in if you feel called - all are welcome. We'll begin at 6:30pm with meditation and have some social time afterwards.

Sat Nam, I'm Ravijot, I'm a KRI Certified Instructor and have been practicing and teaching Kundalini Yoga and Meditation for many years. I moved here last August from Pasadena, CA with my husband Jeff. I'm looking forward to leading this month's Full Moon meditation.
The Shabd Guru is central to my spiritual path. I like to include elements of my practice and what has inspired me when I teach. On January 28 we'll practice a short kriya/meditation for the "Elementary Adjustment of the Brain" and then a core alignment meditation, that uses jappa (mantra recitation), for "Keeping You Steady & on the Path."
Wahe Guru!
