One off NEW events around London: Thu 13 Nov: FULL MOON GREEN TARA EMPOWERMENT PRACTICE, 6pm The Dance of the 21 Praises of Tara is a practice of Empowerment and Blessing. The music is moving and meditative. Based on an ancient Tibetan practice of praising and embodying the Great Goddess Tara. The traditional Tibetan prayer used in this dance offering is a complete practice of personal transformation. The dancers are led into a mandala of dance, instructed in the subtlety of sacred movement and mudra. They learn experientially the philosophy, meditations and visualizations of the traditional Tantric Buddhist practice. The dance has been taught and offered as a prayer to communities worldwide; It is a ritual offered by groups of women worldwide as a prayer of peace, protection, wisdom and capability. Prema Dasara (the Spiritual leader of the Tara Dhatu Organisation) created the dance, and Anahata Iradah (a DUP mentor) wrote much of the music for the Tara Dances. TARA is the embodiment of wisdom compassion and power. TARA is known in many cultures as the ever accessible, all encompassing Great Mother Protector Men are welcomed to do the Tara Dance (in the outer circle, as Protectors). The evening will commence at 6pm and run to approximately 9pm. The cost is on a sliding scale - £10 and £5 for concession holders. All dancers of any belief systems are welcome.
