About this event

Buddhist Mantras and Prayers for Purification, Protection, and Prosperity Workshop

Discover how Buddhist mantras and prayers have been used for centuries to cultivate clarity, overcome obstacles, invite good fortune, and create the conditions for a healthy and meaningful life. In this experiential workshop, we will explore the meaning and purpose of traditional Buddhist practices for purification, protection, and prosperity. Through guided chanting, reflection, and contemplation, we will encounter the power of sacred words and consider how their underlying teachings can help us work with difficulties, cultivate positive intentions, and approach everyday life with greater confidence, compassion, and wisdom. No prior experience with Buddhism or chanting is necessary-just curiosity and an open mind.

We will be meeting upstairs in the Crazy Wisdom Meeting Room.

This class is free and open to the public. Classes in the subsequent series are $25 or $100 for all 5 classes when paid in full by 1st class.

Dr. Ujeed who will be leading the session, spent years collecting and learning different melodies for meditative mantra recitation from Buddhist teachers from various ancient Buddhist traditions from Tibet, the Himalayas and Mongolia and will be sharing them during the workshop.

This is an introductory class for her upcoming class series Chanting Meditation & Mind Training: Bringing Buddhism into Everyday Life.
