EnChant is a casual gathering of open-minded souls for call and response chanting, known as kirtan.
The practice of kirtan/mantra meditation is a process of bhakti (devotional) yoga. The practice has a powerful heart-opening effect which is best understood through direct experience.
Traditional instruments used in the kirtan are harmonium, mrdanga(drum), and kartals(hand cymbals).
There will be an explanation of the mantras we chant, as well as teachings from Bhagavad-gita, the ancient manual of the soul. We learn about such topics as the soul, consciousness, karma, reincarnation, past lives, and meditation.
Come, relax, and unwind in a friendly atmosphere. Listen/observe, or sing your heart out! Questions, personal realizations, and discussion about the application of spiritual practice are welcome.
Yummy vegetarian snacks are served at the end of the evening!
This is a non-profit event; all donations are used for future EnChant events. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
Amazing books on spirituality are available. Bring a little extra cash in case something catches your eye!

Hello all. I'm doing an interview for a video submission at the University of British Columbia. I personally am a devotee of Sri Krishna, but that aside, I will just be asking simple questions about devotionalism and lifestyle. If anyone is interested in sharing their story, please send me a message or just comment below, I will get back to you asap. Credits will be given too all participants.
Cheers
Anshuman

We just grab a coffee and speak French. Some people have been coming every week for months... it creates a kind of warmth to the group.
