$0.00 Aquarian Sadhana January
Sat Nam,
Aquarian Sadhana is a yoga and meditation practice that includes an opening meditation or prayer, about 45 minutes of Kundalini Yoga, and then 62 minutes of beautiful chanting. We start during the hours of the "amrit vela" - the predawn time, where stillness abounds and we can tune into our universal connection with all beings. This practice is joyful, uplifting, and transformative.
January's Sadhana will be hosted on the new moon and as a special offering, we will be replacing the traditional
opening prayer, JapJi, with our 40-day Meditation for Beaming and Creating the Future. We start at 6am, yoga will begin at approximately 6:35 am,
and the Aquarian mantras will start at 7:15 am.
Free and open to all.
The Aquarian Sadhana is practiced by Kundalini Yoga communities across the world. Doing sadhana in
a group develops group consciousness. A group sadhana practice
amplifies the impact of the meditation.

Thou who savest, save us all and take us across,
Uplifting and giving the excellence.
You gave us the touch of the lotus feet of the Guru, and all our jobs are done.
You have become merciful, kind, and compassionate; and so our mind does not forget Thee.
In the company of the holy beings you take us from misfortune and calamities, scandals, and disrepute.
