Vedic Chant
Leader: Lynne Scott - see Group Leaders Contact Details.
Timing: Fortnightly, Wednesdays 2:00-3:30pm.
Venue: Leader's home, Craigentinny EH7 (Zoom meetings during Covid).
Accessibility Key: P S2 T.
Activity: Chanting is one of India's meditative practices. It is the art of listening, learning to recite with attention, care, and a deep involvement of the mind, heart and body.
The chanting, in Sanskrit, involves just 3 notes, so it is not singing. It refines the ability to listen, enhancing memory, patience and self-confidence and develops a state of attention that allows space for reflection and self-inquiry. When the lockdown ends the group will meet monthly on the first Wednesday at 2:30 pm in Craigentinny, Contact the leader Lynne Scott - see Group Leaders Contact Details - if you are interested.
