SUMMARY:Full Moon Chanting
DESCRIPTION:It is said that the full moon magnifies the state of your mind. Mantra chanting is an excellent way to steady your mind towards peace\, and to send that peace out into the world. We will be using 2 Sanskrit mantras: the Gayatri Mantra and the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra. \nGayatri Mantra translated into English as:\nI meditate on that great effulgent Light\nWhich enlightens all the three worlds.\nMay It enlighten me\, too. \nThe Gayatri Mantra is a universal prayer known as the mother of all the hymns of the Vedas (ancient scripture). Repeating the Gayatri Mantra brings harmony on all 3 levels of our being: physical\, mental and spiritual. It purifies our thoughts\, speech and actions. The Gayatri Mantra leads us toward the ultimate light of wisdom\, ultimate Liberation. \nMaha Mrityunjaya Mantra translated into English as:\nWe worship You All-Seeing One\,\nFragrant\, You nourish bounteously. \nFrom fear of death may You cut us free\nTo realize immortality. \nAlong with the Gayatri Mantra\, the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra holds the highest place among the many mantras used for contemplation and meditation. Hailed by the sages as the heart of the Vedas\, the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra can help us tune into the healing force within us\, support our spiritual growth\, and protect us in times of trouble. This powerful mantra serves to free us from the fear of death and remind us of our higher aim of life. \nBy repeating both mantras with our full hearts and minds\, we not only touch our own inner peace\, but radiate this peace out into our world.

SUMMARY:Yom Kippur
DESCRIPTION:Yom Kippur\, known as the Day of Atonement\, is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. It marks the culmination of the Ten Days of Repentance\, which begin with Rosh Hashanah\, the Jewish New Year. Observed with fasting\, prayer\, and introspection\, Yom Kippur is a time for individuals to seek forgiveness from God and from others for their sins over the past year. The day involves extended synagogue services\, with readings from the Torah and the recitation of the Vidui\, or confessional prayers. Yom Kippur ends with a final blast of the shofar (a ram’s horn) to signal the close of the fast and the hope for a fresh start.
