SUFI ZIKHR with Shems Millard
First Wednesday of each month
June 5, 7-9pm
$20
When we perform Zikr we recite the names of the Divine together as one voice, one heart. The linguistic home for this practice is Arabic, which uses sacred sounds that bypass the discerning mind and invoke the soul’s capacity for conversing directly with the intimacy of our inner Beloved, and the vastness of God/Creation/Consciousness. You will leave feeling inspired, uplifted and spiritually nourished.

It has a life of its own and its own set of lessons, challenges, and blessings for each of us. We hold space for and work with what arises as we embody our prayers knowing we are always in ceremony.
