The Guru Gita is a long mantra. Mantras are sacred sanskrit words or phrases that are specifically designed to both clean and clear the mind and bring you to a state of meditation. We use this long chant to let go of our thoughts and prepare in a more meaningful way for our day ahead. If you’re not familiar with sanskrit or even meditation, don’t let that stop you from trying it out!

After the Guru Gita we sit for about 30 minutes together to absorb the positive energy of the chant. Group meditation before your day is invaluable and will set you on the path of growth before the mind gets too active. A Sanskrit mantra that's part of our lineage may be given to work with as a tool to focus the awareness on . Please feel free to ask questions and chat with Ashram residents afterwards. We welcome all.
