Kirtan and Mantra Gathering: Tenderness Blossoming

  • Yoga Moves One 1 Sint Janshovenstraat Utrecht, UT, 3572 RA Netherlands (map)

Kirtan and Mantra gathering:
Tenderness Blossoming

With Ganga Ma

Chanting mantras together invokes and celebrates the stillness and vibrancy that is felt in the moments of Pure Love and Joy. 

Meditative chanting helps to clear and still your mind while invoking qualities within yourself that serve you on our spiritual journey. 

Devotional kirtan releases the knots in the heart and allows love to flow freely. You can feel more deeply connected to yourself, others ánd the great mystery.

You discover the shared longing for peace and love that lives in the heart of us all. Entering the place where words fall short we chant!

Ganga Ma's devotional kirtan and mantra gatherings are loved for the inspiring and heart opening blend of ecstatic chants, prayer ánd stillness. 

She creates a powerful container that will fuel your love for the Divine and seduce you to rest in the stillness that lies in the heart of each chant. 

Her welcoming nature makes even the most shy singer feel free to sing along and discover the beauty of a voice merging in an ocean of sound.

This evening will begin with an opening silent meditation, inviting breath to return to its natural flow. From stillness Ganga guides you into effortless AUM chanting.

We will chant a mix of sanskrit meditative mantras and more expressive, ecstatic kirtan. You will receive a print with the text.

Ganga Ma

Ganga has been leading kirtans and mantra workshops for over 15 years. Most memorable were the gatherings with big groups on the banks of the river Ganga in Rishikesh. The invitation of her teacher to offer chants at his satsangs was a great gift. She has learned so much from showing up day after day to chant in the ashram. Here, chanting really became a part of her sadhana and she owes much of what she shares today to these moments.
