Valentines for Saraswati Kirtan & Fire Ceremony
Saraswati Sacred Fire @ 6 pm
If you live within commuting distance of central NJ, please join us for this very special event at my
home studio near Princeton, NJ. Weather permitting, we’ll hold an outdoor Fire Ceremony. Since it
gets rather cold as the night deepens, we’ll light the fire around 6 pm. This way, bhaktas among us can sit around the blaze, chanting mantras and making offerings
without risk of frostbite...
Valentines for Saraswati Kirtan @ 8 pm
Suzin Green
w/ Dan Johnson, tabla
& Karttikeya,
percussion
Pot Luck Supper will be served all evening.
Please bring something to add to the bounty.
Saraswati is traditionally celebrated at this time
of year. Although “she” comes down
to us through the Hindu Goddess Tradition, Saraswati belongs to
all. Considered the origin of music and creative power of the arts, she is also
the light of insight intelligence and eloquence -- and the
rapture of aesthetic bliss. Along with these sublime aspects, Saraswati is the energetic root of truth
from which knowledge and excellence spring.. This is an archetypal field we do well to cultivate.
This event will be held at my home studio in central NJ.
