About the event
Come dance, eat and celebrate the NEW YEAR! Meditate together into 2023 and experience a full
traditional 7 hour and 45 minute Gong Puja starting at the stroke of midnight. Wake together to a
catered New Year’s Day breakfast while we discuss our powerful shared experience and revel in the
bliss of the New Year. Join us for a deeply profound and unique New Years’ experience.
A Gong Puja (“poo-ja”) is a devotional ritual which honors and allows space for participants to heal in
mind, body and spirit. The Gong is the object and instrument which facilitates self-healing. A Gong
Puja lasts 7 1⁄2 hours (or ten 45-minute Gong Sound Baths) plus opening and closing meditations.
Some will sleep. Others stay awake in a state of neutrality which is called Turiya. Those who sleep
will have up to five 90-minute dream cycles. In each 90-minute cycle, participants will descend
though deeper and deeper stages of NREM sleep followed by an ascension and a Gamma Spike of
REM sleep. That's when lucid dreaming and out of body experiences happen. As each 90-minute
cycle progresses the Gamma Spike duration increases, resulting in longer awesome dreams that
make no sense, but you wish would never end!
The Gong Puja promotes a deep sense of peace and well-being, strengthening of the nervous
system, balancing of the chakras and increased energy and vitality. Being immersed in the sound
vibrations of the gong is incredibly relaxing, rejuvenating and creates an opportunity to repair,
rebuild, unlock and unblock, expand and free a person from mental/emotional and/or physical
issues. During the Puja, as participants meditate and/or sleep – they sense that they are “awake
within a dream.”
