Awaken Your Voice
Chanting for Wisdom & Creativity
With Chandra Easton and Friends
Join Chandra and friends for another sacred afternoon honoring Sarasvati, the Buddhist and Hindu goddess of wisdom, sound, and creative expression, known in Tibetan as Yangchenma, “The Melodious One.” Through chanting, mantra, and meditation, we’ll invoke her many forms, including Tara Vajra Sarasvati, and open ourselves to the descent of vidya: the luminous wisdom she embodies and bestows.
In this second gathering, we’ll learn a shloka (stanza) devoted to Sarasvati set to a beautiful traditional melody.

Foundations of Nondual Buddhist Tantra
Philosophy & Meditation Practices of Vajrayana
A Yearlong Dharma Immersion with Chandra Easton
This yearlong immersion offers a grounded, experiential introduction to Buddhist Tantra—its origins, classical forms, and relevance to modern life. Whether you are new to Vajrayana or deepening an established practice, this course provides a supportive path guided by a qualified teacher and a dedicated cohort.
A central thread of this immersion is the relationship between language and direct experience. As a translator of Tibetan Buddhist texts, Chandra works intimately with the subtle ways meaning is carried—and limited—by words. The teachings themselves remind us that conceptual understanding is only a doorway. Realization happens in the body, in presence, in the immediacy of practice. As the Fletcheress Dakini, Saraha’s 8th‑century teacher, expressed:
“The Buddha’s meaning can be known through symbols and actions, not through words and books.”
This course is designed to help you cross that threshold—from studying the teachings to embodying them.
