The Art of Vedic Chanting: Āśīvāda-mantra for Longevity and Prosperity

About this Course: The Art of Vedic Chanting: Āśīvāda-mantrah for Longevity and Properity

Āśīrvāda-mantrah, as a part of the Taittirīya-samhitā, offers blessings for a long life, health, and wealth. In this workshop, you’ll learn to chant this beautiful prayer for happiness and abundance. We will then incorporate mantra and sound in a special asana, meditation and gesture practice that will activate the energetic and physical body and leave you with a sattvic feeling as we embrace the winter solstice, holidays, and new year.

Each course provides review the six rules of grammar in Vedic chanting set out in the Tattiriya Upanishad: pronunciation, letters or vowels and consonants (varna), pronunciation (svara), duration or unit of length of sound (mātrā), force or strength (balam), continuity (sāma), and combination of two words that blend together (santānah).
