Kirtan at Lake Harriet Spiritual Community

Please join us on the second Sundays of the Month from 7:00-9:00pm for Kirtan at the Lake Harriet Spiritual Community. We will be gathering in the Sanctuary, a beautiful open chamber with spacious high ceilings and resonant acoustics. Chanting is planned for around 90 minutes with light snacks and gathering time afterwards.

For seating there are many comfy padded chairs available. Bringing your own yoga mat/blanket/bolster is recommended if you want to sit on the open floor space in front. Last month we had around 50 people in attendance and it could be helpful to arrive a little early for ease of parking and entering the space.

About Kirtan:
Kirtan weaves music and mantra together as a part of Bhakti yoga, the path of divine love. We'll be chanting and connecting to our hearts through music, poetry, and the sounds of the harmonium, violin and guitar. Featuring Jordan Lawrence on Harmonium and Vocals, and Peter Clausen on Violin and Guitar.

All faiths and cultural backgrounds are welcome as we explore Sanskrit mantras fused with heartfelt poetry and prayers. A requested donation of $10-20 is greatly appreciated to support the musicians and Lake Harriet Spiritual Community. No one turned away due to lack of funds.

About Jordan Lawrence:

He has attended workshops with Krishna Das, Girish, and David Newman, and local Kirtan artists throughout the Midwest.
