Join us for a night to remember for Sacred Sounds Ceremony: Concentric All-Night Gong Puja, a profoundly symbolic and powerful event, combining the cosmic energies of the annual World Gong Puja Day, Autumn Equinox, and World Peace Day! Experience deep resonance guided by a special collaboration of talented gong players led by Maddy Bandera, Ethan Nava, Linda Zhong, and Arvin Shiva Samadhi.
-
World Gong Puja Day (20 Sept) - is a global event dedicated to peace, healing, and transformation through the practice of gong sound baths. During this day, gong players and participants from around the globe unite with the shared intention of promoting peace and healing for humanity and the Earth.
Autumn Equinox (23 Sept) - Holding the puja on the Autumn Equinox is significant. The equinox, when day and night are of approximately equal length, symbolizes balance and harmony. Spiritually, it's seen as a time for reflection, gratitude for the harvest, and letting go of what no longer serves you in preparation for the introspection of winter
World Peace Day (21 Sept) - officially known as the International Day of Peace, is a United Nations-sanctioned day observed annually on September 21. Its significance lies in its call for a global commitment to peace, both on a large scale and in our daily lives. The International Day of Peace emphasizes that peace begins with each of us. It's a reminder that everyone has a role to play in promoting peace in their own lives, families, communities, and beyond.
Our session will begin with a heart-led meditation, preparing our inner energetic pathways to receive the healing frequencies of the gongs. We then transition into the sacred sound journey, allowing participants to move into deep relaxation and inner journey. The session concludes with a sacred pause with silence, followed by a gratitude meditation as we welcome the rising of the sunrise on World Gong Puja day.
If you have been seeking a unique and profound self-care experience, deeper meditative states, emotional release, and a potential shift in your consciousness and connection to your authentic self - this is a sound journey not to be missed.

Created by Yogi Bajan and Don Conreaux, the Gong Puja is a sacred ceremony in which gongs are played continuously for 7.5 hours - the equivalent of ten 45-minutes Gong Baths. It’s a very powerful experience - breaking up blockages at a cellular & energetic level, activating & increasing flow of our life-force energies.

A Gong Puja is for anyone seeking deep relaxation, stress reduction, emotional release, and a potential sense of spiritual awakening. It can be particularly beneficial for:
Individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, or overwhelm: The soothing vibrations help calm the mind and nervous system.
Those seeking deeper meditative states: The gong's rich sounds can facilitate entry into profound stillness.
People wanting emotional healing and release: The sound can help unlock and process suppressed emotions.
Those interested in exploring altered states of consciousness: The extended immersion can lead to expanded awareness.
Anyone looking for a unique and profound self-care experience: It's a powerful way to nurture the mind, body, and spirit.
Those with sleep issues: Many report improved sleep quality after a Gong Puja.
Individuals open to sound as a therapeutic modality: No prior experience with gongs or sound healing is necessary.
While generally safe, some contraindications may exist, such as for individuals with pacemakers, epilepsy, or extreme sound sensitivity, and it's often not recommended for women in their first trimester of pregnancy. Please contact us prior to booking if you have any specific health concerns, and note it is always best to consult with your doctor.
