Music has a transformative power to influence inner states and elevate awareness. Join Satyaki for an experiential evening of Ananda Music in which we’ll sing together and also experience how the music can bring dynamic focus to meditation. It is the perfect primer to our Saturday workshop on Transforming Emotions through Music.

 “Music doesn’t merely reflect a state of consciousness: it also generates it.” Swami Kriyananda

Satyaki Brockschmidt is a 30-year member of Ananda and a resident of Ananda Village, having lived previously in Ananda Seattle and Ananda Portland. Since the early 2000s, and with Swami Kriyananda’s encouragement, he’s been exploring the inner effects of Ananda Music—how it affects consciousness and healing by resonating with and raising energy in the various spinal centers. You can learn more through his Ananda Music Oral History video, https://youtu.be/8gqO-DvJHJ0. He is working now to share the fruits of these labors through classes, videos, and app experiences, including Knowing God through Ananda Music (https://youtu.be/tDauJOTlR74), recorded for Spiritual Renewal Week 2025.
