LAMA SURYA DAS TO GIVE KEYNOTE SPEECH AND DAVID NEWMAN TO LEAD KIRTAN AT GLOBAL MALA YOGA FOR PEACE ~ BOSTON 2008

RISE UP! Be a Yogi in Action for Peace and Mother Earth

On Sunday, September 21st on the Boston Common and at the Cyclorama, the Boston area yoga community will gather for a day of yoga practices to bring awareness and raise consciousness for PEACE and MOTHER EARTH.

The date of September 21st is also significant because it is the UN International Peace Day. Last year, there were over 400 Global Mala events in 35 countries.

There are many ways to be involved. By participating in the Yoga Mala in the morning or afternoon, you can dedicate your practice of 108 Sun Salutations for peace and any other important intention. In the evening, you can listen and be inspired by Lama Surya Das and then chant in a kirtan led by David Newman, an amazing kirtan wallah from Philadelphia.

Proceeds from this event will go to TREES FOR THE FUTURE and THE FOOD PROJECT.
