Questions
Do I need to book?
No. There is nothing to book and nothing to register. Come on a Sunday, a little before 16:00.
What does it cost?
It is by donation. Give what you can.
What is kirtan?
Call and response singing. One voice leads a line, the room sings it back. You can sing, or sit and listen.
Is this a Henosis event?
No. Amaravati Healing Center runs it. Henosis lists it because it is open to everyone, by donation, and made of the same thing we are: people gathering around music and presence.
Does it run every Sunday?
Amaravati hold it every Sunday. If they take a break, for a holiday or the weather, they post it on their Instagram, so look there if you are travelling a long way.
