Join us at Anahata to celebrate the full moon in July!
This is a weekend for our Sangha and Community to get together and lend a hand on some projects here at Anahata while reconnecting with one another over the auspicious time of Guru Purnima. This is the energetic time of the year when we give thanks and honour our teachers, mentors, gurus, and all those who have helped to guide us in life so far.
Guru Purnima is the full moon representing the highest point of realisation when the inner light shines in absolute darkness. This is the time to re-connect to our spiritual heritage, those who have inspired us on the path of self-understanding and link with the higher forces that shine a light on the path and guide our evolution.
This weekend is by Koha/Donation of whatever you are able to offer which will help to cover outgoings. All are welcome, but sleeping spaces will be limited. Please bring your own bedding. You can join us for the whole weekend or Saturday only. Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Chanting, and Havan are offered. We will all collectively contribute towards making meals and cleanup. Please contact us to reserve your spot.
