Chanted Meditations
Chanted meditations (or Puja in sanskrit) are an important component of training in a spiritual life. They help us to still our mind, connect with enlightened beings, and receive blessings so we can be filled with positive mental energy and prepare our mind for meditation. Everyone is welcome to attend all chanted prayers at Maitreya Centre. There is no need to book, and no fee.
