# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Myth & Mantra: Durga at West Asheville Yoga
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 24 Oct, 2026 at 01:30 pm – Sat, 24 Oct, 2026 at 03:30 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Come experience Durga’s powerful energy of fierce compassion and connect with the vibratory power of your own voice!

In Myth & Mantra, we will explore Durga’s origin myth and practice a fully embodied mantra meditation technique called ajapa japa. 

The Sanskrit word japa means “repeating or muttering a prayer or mantra”. The letter A in front of the word japa means “without.” Ajapa japa is the practice of japa without the mental effort normally needed to repeat a mantra. 

Through her ancient myth and mantra meditation we will learn about and connect with the Hindu Goddess, Durga. Durga is both a warrior and a mother goddess. Her energy is deeply needed in our world! We can tap into her qualities when we need strength, protection and clarity of vision. 

No experience necessary. Printed versions of the mantra will be provided and pronunciation will be reviewed. All are welcome.
