Please join Lisa Prajna Hallstrom and Preeta Banerjee to practice nurturing our inner world—integrating mind, body, soul and spirit—while in community. Come join a space created for families—kids, parents, grandparents, aunts/uncles, friends—that introduces a variety of activities such as storytelling, movement (yoga and dance), song (kirtan), breath, meditation and arts & crafts to experience a deeper awareness of who we really are—spiritual beings having a human experience.
We welcome everyone! Come and experience our divinity together!
Our meetings will be informed by our lineage and study of Anandamayi Ma (1896-1982) who once said: “A small infant…stretches out his arms wanting to be taken on his mother; slap; and because a baby does not know any better, the mother cleans and washes him carefully and then smilingly lifts him to her bosom. Such is the law of selfless love and tenderness. Where complete self-effacement is the sādhana, no other mantra or tantra is required. Try to become as a little child and, without any other effort on your part, the Great Mother of the world will take you into Her Arms.” (from Sad Vani: Teachings on Anandamayi Ma).
