Small chanting practice – Winter Solstice

This Tuesday, June 21, we will experience the shortest day of the year.

At the winter solstice the longest darkness ends and the day is getting longer and becoming more luminous.

It is a great opportunity to practice a chant that helps us to move towards the light of truth, wisdom and expansiveness within our heart from the shadow of misunderstanding, heaviness and limitedness imposed by our mind.

asato mā sadgamaya

tamasomā jyotir gamaya

mrtyormā amrtam gamaya

Oṁ śhānti śhānti śhāntiḥ

Lead me from the unreal to the real,

lead me from darkness to light,

lead me from the limited to the unlimited.
