Join us for a festive night and celebration of Rumi's birthday, with poetry, spoken word, and the talents of Haleh Liza Gafori. She will share Rumi’s poetry, weaving translations and song featuring his lyrics in Persian, and commentary. She will also be joined by cellist, Isabel Castellvi.
We will be hosting an organic buffet dinner, before the event, prepared by chef Amber Maisano. So if you need a fully belly before the meal, come for some community and nourishment before the event!
The Dances of Universal Peace and Walking Concentrations are spiritual
practice in motion. Drawing on the sacred phrases, scripture, and poetry of the many spiritual traditions of the earth, the Dances blend chant, live music and evocative movement into a living experience of unity, peace and integration. This taste of our true nature - as Universal Peace - opens to the possibility of a deep spiritual
revolution within the person.
Dear Women,
Please join us at the Abode this Sunday for some singing! We will continue with a co-led experience, where whoever feels called, will share a song/chant for us all to learn and sing together. This sometimes includes rounds and getting creative with harmonies, but really it's about being together in-person and having fun. We will sing for about an hour and then have some time to be together for anyone who wants to stay and connect more.
This is a child-free space for all who identify as women. Feel free to spread the word!
Suggested donation of $5-$15 will go directly to the Abode for use of space.

We invite you to welcome the New Year in sacred stillness and joyful prayer at the Abode of the Message. Sufi Sesshin weaves together silent sitting meditation with the heart-opening practices of Zikr and the Dances of Universal Peace, a rhythm of dance, sit, dance, sit, dance… interspersed with nourishing meals and time in nature.
We all have our own vibration and frequency. We can fall out of tune or vibrational harmony and potentially develop illness. Stress and negativity create blockages of a healthy flow of energy.
Sound healing can open a new door into your consciousness and has immense healing potential. Healing with sound can support and offer relief from ailments such as stress depression anxiety addiction pain and moodiness. Join us for the 90 minute session with Sound Therapist, Elise Manzo.
