Connect to wisdom and deep relaxation under the guidance of meditation teacher, hip-hop artist and author Ofosu Jones-Quartey aka Born I.
Heart Sutra SoundBath
The Heart Sutra conveys the essence of the perfection of wisdom, or insight. Listening to a recitation of this Buddhist sutra can take us beyond cognitive understanding and into a felt experience. A Heart Sutra soundbath, by encouraging profound relaxation, creates a spacious ground in which insight is invited to arise.
At this Heart Sutra soundbath event, Ofosu will offer a guided meditation followed by a crystal bowl soundbath and talk on the nature of freedom as expressed in the Heart Sutra.
Students will come away having nourished their minds and hearts with spiritual art and will have a deeper and non-linear appreciation for their own true nature as freedom itself.
Who is this event for?
This event is for anyone who is interested in an experiential teaching on the Heart Sutra and/or simply relaxing to the healing sounds of crystal bowls.
