Most Sundays 9:30–11:30 am
3841 SE 51st Ave., Portland

Dharma circle on Sunday mornings for singing simple kirtan and Hanuman Chalisas, dharma reflection, and silent meditation. These circles are offered in the spirit of devotion, kindness, service, and love, following Ram Dass’s footsteps to the heart of Neem Karoli Baba.

The door is open and all are welcome, so come on in. Chai is on the stove, and we chant until about 11:00 then sit in simple stillness for 20-30 minutes. Stop by whenever you can, and stay as long as you want.

Sweet voices and rusty pipes are all welcome, drums and instruments and chant leaders are welcome. And folks who have never come to something like this before are welcome, too! All backgrounds, traditions, interests, and yearning belong here.

Neem Karoli Baba, also called Maharajji, drew Ram Dass and many other Westerners along with Indian devotees into the path of love and service. Deep devotion, nondual wisdom from Vedanta, along with Buddhist thought and practices and insight from many traditions are all central to the sanatana dharma that Maharajji embodied.

Stop by on Sunday to chant, to sit, and to enjoy warm, lively conversation that reminds us of “who we really are.”

Questions? Contact Anjani, or ask when you get here.  The door is open – please join us.
