Divine Love through Your Hands, an evening of sacred Indian mudras & dance |
Integral Yoga Studio ~ West Village, NYC 227 West 13th Street • New York, NY 10011
(Between 7th and 8th Avenues)
8:00pm to 10:00pm
$18 in advance, $22 at door Interpretation offered by DeafYoga Foundation. Lila Lolling to lead mudras.
This Valentine's Day Eve, come and celebrate Divine love through the beauty of your hands and share Deaf wisdoms with fellow yogis. Lila Lolling, of DeafYoga Foundation (DYF) will be leading sacred mudras during an evening of Kirtan (indian music) as we explore Divine energy in our hands. She will also be interpreting Indian stories about Radha & Krishna, the symbolic representation of a Divine, perfect relationship.
Sacred Bharata Natyam dance mudras, also known as Hastha Mudras, or hand gestures, “are a very highly developed aspect of the art and are a science of communication with the Divine. They are used for a variety of reasons such as to mime the meaning of the song, convey deeper feelings, bring out inherent qualities or even as a self-healing technique.
Kirtan, chanting (vibrational cleansing), calms the mind and opens and purifies the heart so that we may experience harmony and love with the Divine, the ultimate goal of Yoga. This evening will be a joyful celebration of the transcendental romance between the Divine lovers, Radha and Krishna, whose relationship is the example of the highest and purest love. Along with the ecstatic praise of their names (Kirtan), we will shower Radha and Krishna with offerings of flower petals, hear some of their stories, and watch traditional devotional Bharata Natyam (indian) dance.
During this evening, we will be experiencing Divine Love through the use of these mudras. Come and experience the sacredness of your own hands and heart.
Deaf community welcome; translation offered by DeafYoga Foundation. www.deafyoga.org More information at http://www.deafyoga.org/Calendar/Entries/2010/2/13_Celebrate_Love_through_Mudras_~_NYC.html
