Door of My Heart; The Chants of Paramahansa Yogananda

On January 13, 2018, The Wild Moon Bhaktas joined with Rev. Alan Pritz for a night of  Paramahansa Yogananda’s chants and songs.  The program was held in the beautiful Weyerhauser Auditorium at Macalester College and was attended by over seventy people.  Some attendess came from as far away as Rochester, MN.  Yogananda was born in January 1893, so our event was held within days of his 125th birthday.

Yogananda, who was one of the first Indians to bring yoga and meditation to the West, was also a fine musician and composed many sacred chants.  The Wild Moon Bhaktas have been performing his music since the band began in 2009.  It was a delight to spend an evening playing nothing but his music!

Plans are underway to offer the program again next year.  We are grateful to Rev. Alan who worked hard to bring the program into  manifestation.
