Mystic Journey Sacred Music Concert

Join one of Australia's leading kirtan bands Ashraya for an ethereal evening of guided meditations, uplifting sacred music, and profound yoga wisdom! Coming to New Zealand for the first time, experience Ashraya's groundbreaking meditation journey! This spiritually infused soundscape begins slow and contemplative, with breath work, mantra, and conscious listening. From there, the music continues to build, the crescendo peaks enticing the audience to sync their movements with the ebbing and flowing of mantras, melody and rhythm. This beautiful sacred music seamlessly weaves a fusion of sacred mantras with world grooves that induces both contemplation and peacefulness, as well as light hearted and euphoric dance.
