Puja simply means ritual or ceremony. In a Gong Puja, the sounds continue for 7 ½ hours—equivalent to ten 45-minute gong baths. Just one 45-minute session is said to clear the most immediate blocks, while ten consecutive sessions are believed to clear nearly all emotional, mental, physical, and energetic blockages. The experience helps purify and quiet the mind, as the gong’s sounds are intentionally dissonant, encouraging the conscious mind to surrender within just 3 to 90 seconds.
On a physical level, the gong’s vibrations help to:
Release tension and blockages in the body
Stimulate a higher functioning of the glandular and nervous systems
Increase prana (vital life force)
Improve circulation
All are welcome! This event is especially beneficial for anyone:
‍️ In need of stress reduction
Seeking to clear subconscious patterns
️‍ Recovering from trauma
Struggling with addictions
Dealing with insomnia
Suffering from nerve damage
Everyone will benefit from the healing vibrations of this event!
