- **Event Name**: ATHENS Kirtan & Cacao
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 05:00 pm – Sun, 19 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Gershone &amp; Gina’s unique high energy MANTRA MUSIC stirs the soul and soothes with flowing nectar. This participatory experience features original music with mantra chants in Sanskrit and English with kirtan-style call and response to vibrate these healing sounds within and collectively. Mantras are ancient, sacred vibrational tools that hold the highest bliss and intelligence…chanting them realigns and recalibrates our being, while grounding and emanating goodness, beauty, and love here on planet earth. 

Before chocolate was brought to Europe and the rest of the world, many ancient traditions, especially in Central America, would use the pure form of chocolate (cacao) in rituals and ceremonies. Today, we see this practice coming back to our society. Just as music reflects the changing sensibilities of different time periods and cultures, we see cacao ceremonies today reflecting our need to invite in more connection, purpose, celebration, and gratitude into our modern lives.

This Cacao and Kirtan ceremony is not religious but does have a deep connection to spirituality- although one does not need to label themselves as spiritual in order to partake. It is at its essence a way to return to the simplicity of life, honoring what’s important to the individual and the collective. And while the form and function of modern cacao ceremonies are very different from the traditional rites of Indigenous traditions, the core tenets remain: gratitude, intention, and reciprocity. Join us for this delicious evening!
