Jai Uttal & Friends in Ashland Ecstatic Chanting with Jai Uttal, Tina Malia & Ben Leinbach Saturday, October 26th, 7:30-9:30pm: Kirtan Sunday, October 27th, 11am-2pm: A Taste of Bhakti Workshop Embark on a vocal journey through the sacred sounds of ancient India. With call-and-response group chanting and storytelling, Jai Uttal creates a space of invocation, prayer, and heartfelt expression. This meditative practice of calling to the divine creates a bridge between the individual and the eternal, opening the heart and welcoming the spirit. By singing these prayers and expressing a full range of emotions through our voices we join a stream of consciousness and devotion that has been flowing for centuries.  No previous experience is needed. This is an exploration of the heart, independent of vocal or musical technique.
