As we prepare for our next full day of chanting, meditation and Hindustani music inspired by the ancient principles of Nāda yoga, it was a rather delightful side quest to devise a new sound journey to close the July Forever Cacao Club... This is a journey of sound woven with Raga Yaman on sitar and the mantra of Amitabha Buddha. Amitabha is an archetypal Buddha of light and life and is especially associated with compassion. Situated in the Western quarter of the Five Buddha Mandala, his time is sunset; when the full, nourishing splendour of the sun can be directly looked at. We can therefore understand the radiance of his compassion as being especially gentle and approachable. Raga Yaman invites us into a place of surrender; not in terms of giving up but in terms of letting go, like the soft release of a falling leaf. We hope this sound journey will provide you with an opportunity to softly let go into a gentle space of compassion and healing.
