Music, theatre and more in London
Regular practice of Sahaja Yoga meditation awakens the unlimited creative potential of the second chakra known as the Swadhishthana. It is through the power of enlightened creativity that Einstein intuited the equation E=mc2, that the ancient sages and prophets gained their visionary insights and is the living power that inspired the great artists to create their timeless works.

Music
Meditation and music go together beautifully. Enlightened music has the capacity to manifest the energy of the Spirit, awaken the Kundalini and tune our subtle system back into harmony. By using the notes, ragas and the simple mantra sounds that the Kundalini creates as it journeys through the energy points of our inner system, we can awaken and strengthen our chakras and enhance our experience. Music silences our mind and can easily take us deep into a thoughtless state of meditation.
Music Meditation has been very effective in schools, colleges, universities and community groups all over London and the UK at taking complete beginners deep into meditation and relieving them of stress. It also provides an ideal introduction to Indian music and has been very popular with music students.
Music is not only gentle and meditative. It can be inspirational, powerful and upbeat. The international fusion group Indialucia tours the world with its unique blend of Indian classical and flamenco music.
