About this Event
All Night Gong Puja
with Wayne Marto
$120 - water, tea, and snacks are included with your reservation.
** Space is limited. Reserve your spot as soon as possible to ensure availability.**
Join us to experience the bliss of an All-Night Gong Puja! You will be serenaded for more than seven hours by the sweet sounds from 16 tuned Planet Gongs, all delicately played, creating a sacred space for deep relaxation and transformation.
Event Description: In Buddhism, Pujas are expressions of honor and devotional attention. A Gong Puja honors and allows space for our being’s ability to heal – physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It is the truest form of honoring oneself!
We will take some time to prepare for the puja and then 16 tuned planet Gongs will be gently played for 7 hours throughout the night and into early morning while participants rest, meditate, or sleep. The healing vibrations and subtle energies are imbued with intentions of the highest good, promoting a deep sense of peace and well-being. As the mind floats in a state of cosmic consciousness, the body rests on an optimal plane for healing - strengthening the nervous system, balancing the chakras and increasing energy and vitality.

Wayne Marto
In 2022, after 23 years of IT sales, Wayne shifted his focus, devoting 100% of his time and energy into the expansion and refinement of Beneficial Sound. He has now stepped fully into his purpose (dharma), embracing his role as the Gong Master.
Wayne comes from an extended family of musicians and has studied the gong extensively. Having performed over 800 Gong Meditations since 2015, he has developed an authentic style of playing, infused with passion and intention, that promotes deep relaxation and transformation.
Wayne has a degree in Psychology, is a certified Gong Practitioner and is a member of the American Sound Healers Association.
"When I heard the gong for the first time, I was deeply moved by the resonating, vibrational healing qualities of the sound. I was swept away by a reflective sense of renewal, a releasing of unwanted emotions and a powerful sense of strong new beginnings. The gong has forever changed me, leading me on a journey of awakening, and uncovering my true calling in life: to share the healing sounds of the gongs with all those willing to listen."
