Shanti Manpreet

"Who am I? What is my purpose here? What really makes me happy?"

 

In recent years, I have been on an intense search for my true core.

 

By chance, I discovered the transformative power of mantras in a harmonium workshop and felt my devotion to music for the first time. After more than 12 years, I began to sing again. In my younger years, I was very shy and insecure, which was particularly evident in my voice: I spoke very softly, quickly and unclearly, and was often simply ignored. The subject of hearing was very painful in my youth, especially because of my unilateral hearing loss.

 

In connection with sound, I discovered in all my insecurities and limiting beliefs a strong woman whose heart's voice had gone unheard for far too long. Out of my head and into my heart. The mantras brought about many changes in my life: at 27 I called off my wedding, at 29 I quit my job as a civil servant, and at 30 I gave up my apartment to move to Greece where I support my teacher Za Rah Kumara in her healing work.

 

Since 2018 I regularly organize chanting experiences to pass on this art in a symbiosis of mantras, meditations, sound yoga and healing arts.

 

The focus of my events is on full awareness in the present moment, in loving acceptance and opening to all that is. Through my voice I open a space for healing and share the inspiring impulses I receive. In my warm and authentic way I take you on a journey to yourself, carried by my love for Indian music. Since I had no musical experience myself, it is my greatest joy to guide people to feel their true vocal power and to be carried by the sound. I am especially fascinated by finding the silence and the sound in its essence.
