"Be foolishly in love, because love is all there is." - Rumi
Be a Fool For Love and join us on Friday 1st April for a blissful evening of devotional chanting! We had a wonderful evening on February 26th with an incredible turnout and we are looking forward to another great night in April! I am delighted to be joined once more by inspiring and fabulous musicians, David Oliver on drums and Martin Solomon on violin and harp. You are in for a treat!
Kirtan is a form of devotional chanting whose roots go back over 500 years to India. It is a practice from Bhakti Yoga (yoga of devotion) and has the sublime power to open the heart. By repeating simple mantras over and over, kirtan is an effortless way to experience some freedom from the daily chatter of the mind, taking us deeper into stillness and silence.
Kirtan is for everyone. No prior experience of chanting is necessary to gain the many benefits it has to offer, simply an openness to what may occur. Through chanting, you meet the practice exactly where you need to. This might be finding a still point of relaxation after a hectic week at work, or the joy of singing together, of opening our hearts, offering our prayers to the Divine, or simply being present to the one moment.
"Tim sings his devotional chants straight from the heart. His voice has a rare quality of authenticity. With him it's all about the soul, but his music is great too, lyrical, uplifting and inspiring." - Ranchor Prime, Author & Publisher
