October 17 - 19, 2025
Join Chris Berlin, Darren Becker, and the members of their band, Satigata, for an exploration of how sound and musical expression can emerge from contemplative practice.
Satigata is a Pali term that roughly translates to “moving into mindfulness.” We’ll explore this by inquiring:
* What does it mean to use music and chanting to foster our sense of mindful awareness?
* What is it like to come together in community to allow melodies, harmonies and rhythms to emerge from the vast space of silence?
* How does music enhance sacred teachings and mantras, bringing to life the wisdom that they transmit?
Please join us to:
* Practice core mindfulness meditations
* Create sound together without any pretense of performance
* Learn basics in breath, voice, rhythm and improvisation
Satigata will use its own material as a platform for exploration, bringing together spiritual themes in their music with the practice of engaging songs and chants creatively. No musical knowledge required and no one will ever be put on the spot to perform musically! Instead, this is an invitation to explore how musical expression may arise naturally for you with the help of a few resources and a sense of communal presence.
You may bring your own (small) musical instruments but none are required.
