Chanting Evenings/Mantra

Filled with a love for the Divine known through many names and forms, Gina Salá leads regular participatory chanting evenings (mantra, bhakti, japa,and naada yoga) internationally. Singing is Gina Salá’s path to praising and celebrating the Oneness that is inherent in all, and her passion is Singing us into remembrance of Who we are. She began chanting at the age of 3 at the hindu ashram where she spent her early years. She has been studying Indian singing and other singing for decades as well as Sanskrit and tantra and is blessed to share what she has learned from her teachers.

Because the One I love lives inside of You . . .

At chanting events with Gina Salá and her musical guests, you are always welcome to come as you are, participate as you like. As Gina says, “No experience or particular belief system is needed to directly experience the bliss of chanting our hearts awake to Who we are. Who is singing when we sing?” Direct experience of our open hearts and oneness is what matters. Jai!
