Kirtan Chanting (Sacred Mantras)
Namaste, dear friends,
Welcome to an enchanting and transformative journey through the sacred art of Kirtan! Prepare to immerse yourself in an evening filled with soul-stirring melodies, ancient chants, and heart-opening vibrations that will transport you to a realm of profound tranquility and connection.
Kirtan, a Sanskrit word meaning "narrating, reciting, telling, describing," holds within its essence the power to still the restless mind and awaken the deepest corners of your being when approached with a genuine intention.
In this gathering, we invite you to join us in the timeless tradition of call-and-response, where each mantra we chant is met with an echo from the collective, creating a symphony of unity and devotion. As the sacred sounds reverberate through the sacred space, a profound calmness will envelop your mind and heart, nurturing a sense of peace and tranquility that resonates long after the last note fades away.
No prior experience is required to participate in this captivating experience.
Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a curious soul taking your first step into the realm of Kirtan, our circle is open and welcoming to all. Simply bring yourself, an open heart, and a willingness to explore the depths of your own inner wisdom.
Join us in this sacred space as we sing from the depths of our hearts, allowing the music to weave its magic and unite us in a shared experience of divine bliss.
With love,
Waiheke Mystery School

Tantra Experience - Sahasrara Chakra
The 7th Chakra (Sahasrara), means โthousand-petaledโ and is all about super-consciousness and transcending the human condition.
This energy centre controls our connection to spirit, and our sense of universal consciousness, wisdom, unity and self-knowledge.
Association with the colour violet reflects the Crown chakraโs link to spirituality and enlightenment.
When right and left sides of the brain merge, the mid-brain goes through a sudden awakening, as all the โlightsโ get switched on.
This leads to the experience known as Mahamudra, the Great Gesture arising from the ultimate orgasm with the universe.
Such experience takes us beyond duality into oneness with all that is.
We move from personal love, into universal love.
The Crown chakra stores energies amassed through kind thoughts and actions, faith, meditation and prayer.
Here we are able to transcend the material world and commune with the divine.
Sahasrara is aligned to seek an intimate relationship with the universe.
Tantra Experience - Ajna Chakra
The 6th Chakra, Ajna, is the chakra of intuition, self-realisation, inspiration and imagination.
This third eye chakra Ajna, which means โorder" is the place of lightning and fire.
The sixth chakra is associated with mystical visions, clairvoyance, the ability to observe chakras and auras, precognition and out-of-body experiences.
It is where we develop an impersonal mind and detach from physical and mental illusions.
This is where we can transcend thoughts, worries and fears to know our souls deeply from within.
The energy of this chakra allows us to see and understand the inner and outer worlds.
When stimulated, both hemispheres of the brain work together and help us transcend dualistic thinking.
When open, the third eye chakra connects us to the present moment and can deepen spiritual connection as well as provide wisdom and insight.
