Vedic Chanting Lessons

Anyone who knows me will tell you I am absolutely in love with Sanskrit. From the first moment I was introduced to it, I loved the mystery. I knew there was magic encased in these beautiful ancient symbols. What I didn’t know at the time was what an impact learning this language would have on my life.

Why Sanskrit?

Sanskrit is one of the oldest languages known. The story goes, that this is not a man-made language, but that the ṛṣi-s, the ancient seers, brought the sounds and symbols back from states of deep meditation. They were able to see the shapes of the sound vibrations and those shapes are what became the Sanskrit alphabet, devanāgrarī.

Chanting in Sanskrit helps to calm the mind, improve immune function, increase concentration, and relieve stress. Used a meditation practice, chanting or writing mantras in Sanskrit can serve as a beautiful route to connect with Spirit. 

Deva in Sanskrit mean “shining” or “shining ones”. It’s the name Vedic tradition gives to the cosmic intelligence that we translate at gods and goddesses. Devanāgari, the Sanskrit alphabet, is literally translated as “city of the Gods” because the forms are said to encase the various sacred vibratory threads of the energy of creation.

I offer private lessons for all levels of Vedic chanting.

Classes can be done in-person or over Zoom.
