Please come join Kashi Atlanta Mantra Group as we explore mantras and sounds from around the world. Mantra has been used since antiquity as a tool of transformation in all areas of life: physical, spiritual, financial, relationships and intellectual. It is a combination of particular words and sounds that embody different forms of Divine consciousness which promote harmony in all areas of life. The repetition of these specific sounds can open up one's whole being and help one heal and expand in any area where there is struggle. Mantra can also be used to create specific results by aligning us with the energies we wish to become and bring into our life. Mantra can be done for self or directed to help others toward healing and peace. The ancient Hindu teachings say that chanting a mantra with more than one person exponentially empowers the purpose of the mantra and the energies it carries. If you have never chanted before or even if you have a personal practice, come and enjoy the power and energy that comes from group chant in a sacred space!

The Many Streams of Intuition:
Awakening Pure Prana
Intuition is the silent voice of love and awareness that rises from your deepest center. When you quiet the mind, you open yourself to the current of cosmic consciousness, a space of inescapable beauty and wisdom. Pure prana or energy is awakened in you through your own intuition, and in that great space of intuition, you can see the moment spread out in front of you. Immerse yourself in the current of consciousness, and awaken the streams of wisdom that you learn from your own intuitive heart.
Join us for a weekend intensive with Ma Jaya as she teaches about accessing inner wisdom and intuition. Through the ancient practices of yoga, breath awareness and meditation, Ma will help us connect to our own inner knowing, deepening our journey into consciousness, awareness and everyday bliss.
Ma Jaya Sati Bhagavati is a spiritual teacher, mystic and humanitarian. Founder of Kashi Ashram, an interfaith spiritual community, Ma has been teaching for over 30 years in the lineage of her guru, Neem Karoli Baba.
