3RD EAR Presents: Swar Samadhi, Sounds of Stillness with Premsheela Kumari

Meditation Through Indian Classical Music "Where sound becomes silence, and silence becomes self."

Step into the sacred world of Swar Samadhi: Sounds of Stillness, a meditative journey guided by the timeless power of Indian classical music. Rooted in ancient Vedic wisdom, this program explores the spiritual dimension of sound—where each raga, each note (swar), becomes a doorway to inner stillness and inner harmony.

Participants will have an opportunity to absorb the music through meditative listening and to sing collectively in a call and response format.

This event is in-person only. Tickets are sliding scale $25-$45. If the ticket cost is prohibitive, please reach out to ZXZlbnRicml0ZSB8IGJlcmtlbGV5YWxlbWJpYyAhIG9yZw== for scholarship tickets.

Premsheela learned music for more than ten years from her principal music guru, the late Devi Karunamayee of Sri Aurobindo Ashram – Delhi Branch. Under her golden wings and with the spiritual orientation of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, Premsheela assimilated deep foundations of both classical and devotional music. She has been working in educational fields for over 15 years. Learn more about Premsheela's work on her website: https://singsargam.com/ and her work with children's music here https://tumtana.com/

This event is part of the Alembic's 3RD EAR series. 3RD EAR is a new series of music and sound events and discussions held at the Berkeley Alembic. Curated by Erik Davis and Sam Plattner, 3RD EAR will explore ambient soundscapes, field recordings, experimental electronica, sacred noise, cosmic drones, sonic manipulations, and Old World improvisations. Hearing is a thing that just happens, but listening is a practice: a way of exploring and meditating on sensation, mind, and the vibratory cosmos around us.
