Soulful Mantra Meditation Evening

**We invite you to The Mantra Room, a friendly community sharing spiritual practice of Mantra Meditation, Kirtan & Wisdom & Vegan Meal.** **\~\~** “Mantra” means transcendental sound vibration, sound which transcends the material world. It does not originate in the material world; it originates in the Spiritual World and descends to the material platform without losing any spiritual potency. By the simple process of mantra meditation, our mind and heart are gradually purified of all kinds of stress, worry, misconceptions and deep-seated fears etc. We begin to experience an ever-deepening inner peace and happiness and increasing insights into life. The easiest way of meditating on the mantras is by singing in a group accompanied with musical instruments , which is also known as Kirtan. Rather than being a type of performance, Kirtan is a journey of self discovery. It nourishes our deepest needs for inner peace, happiness, freedom from fear & spiritual love. Be a part of an immersive and interactive mantra meditation experience and join many other like minded people that come to Brisbane’s home of Kirtan [The Mantra Room](https://www.facebook.com/TheMantraRoom.Brisbane)! Everyone is welcome, whether you regularly engage in meditation or never before we encourage you to come along for a special night of chanting. Includes Community Veg/Vegan meal. Volunteering and Donations in supporting these events are greatly appreciated. Namaste! The Mantra Room Volunteers♥

Meditation elevates our attention onto deeper aspects of our lives. 🧠 Based on: [Petersen SE, Posner MI. The attention system of the human brain: 20 years after. Annu Rev Neurosci. 2012;35:73-89.](https://www.annualreviews.org/content/journals/10.1146/annurev-neuro-062111-150525) **Week 3** **Ancient Wisdom & inspiration** Science gives us the tools to understand the mechanics of creation, but ancient wisdom inspires us to know our place within the collective power that supports us. 🧠 Based on: [Mascaró, J. (Ed. & Trans.). (1965). The Upanishads. Penguin Books.](https://archive.org/details/upanishads00masc) **Week 4** **Role of the Guru** Gu: "darkness" (ignorance, illusion, and confusion). Ru: "destroyer," "dispeller," or "that which removes." The right Guru dispels the darkness of ignorance and reveals the light of truth. 🧠 Based on: [Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, How to get the connection with the Divine power, 03 June 1990, Miami, USA](https://learnsahajayoga.org/en/post/6673).
