we chanted!

We chanted this mantra 108 times together at the
Deval Premal, Miten & Manose
concert in Vancouver last night
in honour of Shri Ganesh... wow!


OM GUM GANAPATAYEI NAMAHA

Ganesha ~

* Remover of Obstacles
* Lord of Beginnings
* Lord of Obstacles
* Patron of arts and sciences
* Deva of intellect and wisdom

He is honoured at the beginning of rituals and ceremonies
and invoked as Patron of Letters during writing sessions.

And we also chanted the mantra in honour of Green Tara,
the female Buddha of enlightened activity!


OM TARE TUTARE TURE SVAHA





We were treated to one of the mantras from Deva Premal's new CD

with The Gyuto Monks of Tibet,

Tibetan Mantras for Turbulent Times!

Thanks to technology, those deep voices of the monks were also present...
holy smokes!

All proceeds of the CD are directed to the
Gyuto Monastery in Dharamsala, India.




We chanted many more mantras during the evening...

and ended together with
HALLELUJAH
over and over and over
into
eternity!



Thank You, Deva Premal!
Thank You, Miten!
Thank You, Manose!
Thank You, Banyen!
Thank You, Chanters!
