Sanskrit Effect, The

Today, we use the classical language of Sanskrit as a living technology of sacred sounds for awakening higher states of consciousness and attaining advanced states of meditation leading to enlightenment. In 2018, Scientific American published an article about the "Sanskrit Effect," which correlated ancient mantras with increased brain activity. We will explore sound yoga and its role in the development of human potential and experience how pronunciation of the Sanskrit alphabet cultivates the nervous system in preparation for profound meditation. Note: There are both an in-person and an online option for this course. Participants must choose only one option to attend; please ensure that you are registering for the option you prefer, as we may not be able to accommodate changes.

There are no courses currently posted. Please check the calendar for upcoming registration periods.
