W I N T E R S O L S T I C E - ALL NIGHT GONG JOURNEY Saturday evening 21 December 2024
a unique and magical gong experience
at magnificent Colet House.
"WINTER SOLSTICE
is a time of shortest day and longest night in Northern Hemisphere, it's a Festival of Rebirth ,
a time of Return of The Sun.
Times are changing and an even bigger cosmic wheel is turning
as 2000 years of the Piscean Age gave way to a new 2000 years of The Aquarian Age.
Now at Winter Solstice let us celebrate the return of the Sun's energy and the active dynamic outward creative expression of self-knowledge that this generates in all of us, whether male or female.
Let us celebrate the rebirth of the balance of power to humanity as a whole, healing the wounds of separation , fear and dominance.
A new cycle begins."
This is a night to surrender to the guidance of your soul,
to dive deep into self healing meditation,
lucid dreaming state and purify subconscious blocks.
It is an exquisite vibration and sound journey till sunrise with powerful gongs and experienced gong masters, teachers and healers.
Experience the power of sound transports you through the night in a timeless journey of tone and pulsation bathing you in waves of vibration. The deep complex overtones of multiple gongs resonate continuously through the night, melting away boundaries between being awake and asleep, between inside and outside.
All Night Gong Puja it’s a magical experience to sleep with a symphony of gongs playing, transforming your brain waves through an entire night. Meditate or sleep through the night as gongs harmonize you into the deepest conscious sleep.

“Pay attention to the sound,
as you might uncover a secret of existence
and find the true Voice of deep inner YOU”

Gongs are amazing instruments.
They generate powerful, intense healing vibrations which, stimulate feelings of peace and relaxation. This allows the release of stress and enhances well-being. The Sound of Gongs opens the gates of Love, so you can connect with all. The things you create around yourself and realize just how great a power you have to create your own happiness and well-being. The Gong Puja can help you to remove emotional aspects out of the body, creating empty space to fill it with love and tranquility.

TESTIMONIALS:
----------------
“I had a very rejuvenating experience. I haven't been to a gong night before and didn't expect the changes to be both so subtle yet so obvious. During the night I felt a sense of peace and relaxation which was enlightening. After the event, I felt different, both in terms of my emotional response to situations and feeling grounded. New opportunities opened for me which included me changing jobs.
I have attended two so far and will definitely do this regularly.
I thoroughly enjoyed the kundalini yoga which was carried out before and after the gong bath. The pace and movements were so fluid and dynamic that I felt instantly energised. I felt a sense of bliss when chanting the mantras and I can thoroughly recommend the event. It is a real must for anyone experiencing fatigue and distraction in their busy lives.” Roo
“I recently attended the all night Puja and really liked the combination of Kundalini to open the body before we started the with the gongs.
I wore ear plugs all night which allowed me to relax more and really feel the vibrations affecting my body.
The next day I was a bit tired but very relaxed and calm. Two days later I had a big energetic release from my neck and head and have been feeling fantastic ever since.
I highly recommend this event.

WHAT IS A GONG PUJA?
---------------------------
Puja (Sanskrit & Pali: pūjā) are expressions of “honor and devotional attention.” A Gong Puja is honoring & allowing space for our being’s ability to heal – physically, emotionally & spiritually. It is the truest form of honoring thyself!
An all night Gong Puja:
The gongs are played gently throughout the night into early morning while guests sleep bathed in there healing vibrations. Immersed in the sound of the gong and in the subtle ethers of the sound bath, we repair and rejuvenate as the cosmic ocean of vibrations wash over us; cleansing, unblocking and freeing us. The functional harmony created by the gong tones bring about an inner stillness where deep healing can occur.
Swiss mathematician and musicologist Hans Cousto, who calculated the planetary frequencies used in the planetary gongs today, stated that it took 45 minutes to complete a full sound journey. Yogi Bhajan believed that the gong was the most powerful tool for healing, and that this 45-minute gong session would clear any immediate blocks.
Yogi Bhajan Master of Kundalini Yoga & Mahan Tantric
Yogi Bhajan stated that 10 consecutive gong healings would clear most blocks so that the soul could then heal itself, relieving the body of human suffering to deliver us to our hearts. Living within the heart, we can more easily thrive in our natural state of joy and belonging and carry that vibration out into the world inspire those around us to do the same.
In the year 2000, Grand Gong Master Don Conreaux developed and held his first official Overnight Gong Puja to deliver these 10 consecutive gong baths in one grand night of healing as participants slept, allowing the mind to float in a state of cosmic consciousness while the body rested on this plane in the most optimum state for healing – Deep sleep.
The Gong Puja experience lasts about 7 ½ hours which is the equivalent of 10 x 45-minute Gong Baths. It’s a journey that’s timeless, in a time which is often measured in nano seconds, and as we journey with the vibration of the gong, we leave this dimension behind and move effortlessly into the 4th dimension.
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.”
