Ken's 5:30 pm Friday night class will be cancelled for this night ONLY- sorry for any inconvenience, but the teacher is flying in from New York and we have so much ground to cover.
I am taught that the Matrika- the organization of sound known as the Sanskrit alphabet- has 51 distinct sounds. The lotuses of the main chakras along the spine add up to 51 as well- also the number of meridians located there. (Sahasara is either the thousand petaled lotus or is represented by 1 lotus- the count of 51 of course uses 1 for Sahasara.) Each distinct sound in Sanskrit heals a unique part of us. The Samkhya rishis found that sound (shabda) comes from space (Akash). Space is the most subtle of all the elements, therefore it is the most powerful of the elements. Working with sound is powerful magic. Ganesh is the ruler of the Matrika so the practice of Sanskrit will clear obstructions in the lines of energy in our bodies and remove obstacles in our lives.
