Workshop: Peace in our Hearts through Naad Yoga
May 27 @ 14h00-17h00
​
There is a quiet, peaceful space within our hearts naturally. Yet we often carry and hold the baggage of past actions, future worries, and imaginary fears there instead, which creates an incredible amount of noise, pain and contraction in our lives that is unnecessary. Snatam Kaur will share tools of Naad Yoga, a practice of vibrating divine sound within us and then projecting it outward. It originates effortlessly, deep within the quiet space in the center of every human being, called "Anahat" or the unstuck sound, and then finds it's way through our thoughts, our words, our actions, our chants, and our songs. This sacred sound cuts through the illusion of the world like the sword of a fierce warrior, and also heals us with its energy of pure love so that we may truly experience peace in our hearts. In this workshop we will practice Kundalini yoga, chanting, and meditation. Please make sure to wear comfortable clothing, and have a mat to practice yoga on.
​
​
Snatam will be joined by her band for both the concert & the workshop: Grecco Buratto, Sukhmani Kaur Rayat, and Ram Dass Singh

Eng - Snatam’s concert tours bring her joyous, uplifting music to audiences everywhere as she performs compositions from her new album Beloved and much-beloved songs from her rich catalog of classic world devotional CDs. Timeless Snatam Kaur recordings such as Prem, Grace, Anand, Liberation’s Door and Light of the Naam, have brought inspiration and a deep sense of peace to listeners worldwide with their captivating blend of traditional sacred mantras and expansive musical settings blending Eastern and Western influences. But the best way to experience the music, warmth and wisdom of Snatam Kaur is live in concert.
​
“The concert is an opportunity for people to be awakened to the power of mantra,” she says; “to fall in love with mantras and be healed by them. With these concerts I hope to connect people with these mantras so that they get a sense of their own intrinsic light and love. I know for myself that chanting together in these settings is super healing and super powerful for relieving stress, tension and that feeling of being overwhelmed that I think is pretty common for in this day and age. It’s a way for people to come and find that sense of peace again.”
Snatam Kaur is an American singer, peace activist and author raised in the Sikh and Kundalini Yoga tradition. She has an amazing ability to transform traditional Sikh chants of India into a contemporary sound that appeals to the modern ear and awakens an ancient yearning in the soul. For over twenty years, she studied with and grew up in the presence of her spiritual teacher, Yogi Bhajan, while he was in his physical form, learning the essence of Naad Yoga, a form of yoga focusing on sacred sound. At the core of this practice is an essential experience of peace and healing which has helped her music to be accessible to people of all walks of life. She has taught and shared Naad Yoga and Kundalini Yoga and meditation through her recorded CDs, concerts, and workshops for the past sixteen years as a part of her commitment to give people tools for a daily experience of inner peace. Her latest CD, Beloved is a sound medicine tool kit, each track has a specific healing effect. Snatam’s book Original Light; the Morning Practice of Kundalini Yoga is a compassionate and supportive guide to creating a personal daily spiritual practice.

NL - Concert, chant feest, muzikale groep meditatie, een yoga les in melodie...wat is nu eigenlijk de beste manier om een live concert van Snatam Kaur te omschrijven? Het is dit allemaal en nog veel meer..... Mis dit zeker niet!
Snatam Kaur is een bezielde zangeres en violiste, een vrouw met een zachtheid die elke mens raakt. Snatam's goddelijk melodisch songs, gebaseerd op traditionele Sikh mantra's worden naar een hoger niveau gebracht door de Engelse verzen die de betekenis van de "heilige klanken" uitdrukken. Dit helpt het publiek om zich er ook emotioneel mee te verbinden.
Snatam begeleidt zichzelf op harmonium, guitaar en viool. Vaak brengt zij haar publiek in pranayama (yogi ademhaling) of laat ze iedereen rechtstaan voor wat stretching, wat dan vaak uitmondt in een "sacred dance". Tegen het eind van de avond ken je het grote comsische geheim: devotionele muziek is geweldig.
Sat Nam!
Haar oprechtheid & diepe engagement is duidelijk voelbaar in haar muziek, het is geworteld in een leven vol toewijding. Ieder concert met haar is een boodschap en ervaring van vrede. De muziek en de chants dringen in de harten van de mensen binnen en laten ons de vrede in onszelf ervaren.
Voor Snatam zijn de Sacred chants van de Sikhs evenals de chants van andere geloven, een belangrijke uitdrukking voor heling, vrede en sociale verandering en ze stimuleert eenieder om hieraan, op zijn/haar eigen manier, een steentje bij te dragen. Veel van haar songs zijn oude chants gezongen in Guumukhi, de Heilige taal van de Sikh. Andere zijn in het Engels, wat een brug maakt tussen twee werelden.
Snatam Kaur werd in 1972 geboren in Trinidad Colorado, groeide op in de Sikh traditie van de beroemde Kundalini Yoga meester, Yogi Bhajan. Haar jeugd bestond voor een groot deel uit yoga, meditatie en chanting. Op een dag, nog voor ze twee jaar was, begon ze middenin een les te tateren. Yogi Bhajan stopte met spreken, bekeek haar en zei : ’ Jouw periode om les te geven, komt nog kleintje’ En die voorspelling klopte helemaal, Snatam leert nu Yoga, chants & meditatie aan kinderen & volwassenen.

Fr - Concert, fête en chansons, groupe de méditation musicale, cours de yoga en musique… comment décrire au mieux une représentation de Snatam Kaur et de son groupe de musiciens ? C’est tout cela à la fois et bien plus. Cristalline et chaude, la voix de Snatam évoque la simplicité profonde de la vérité du cœur.
Les très belles chansons mélodieuses de Snatam sont basées sur des mantras traditionnels sikhs et sont enrichies de très belles paroles en anglais qui traduisent la signification des syllabes sacrées et qui aident l’audience à se connecter à ses propres émotions.
Snatam s’accompagne elle-même à l’harmonium, ainsi que d’une guitare et d’un violon. L’harmonium et les tablas ancrent les sons dans la tradition musicale sikh du Penjab et cette musique a également des sonorités occidentales. La plupart des concerts se modulent sur la tradition des kirtans sur le mode « appel et réponse” ce qui produit un élan dynamique qui est clairement palpable dans l’air de chaque concert.
Snatam guide souvent l’audience dans une session de pranayama (le yoga du souffle) ou invite chacun à se lever pour quelques exercices d’étirements qui souvent se transforment en danse sacrée. A la fin de la soirée, vous aurez pénétré au sein d’un grand secret cosmique : la musique dévotionnelle c’est la joie.
