Global Mala Project 2008

September 8, 2008 by Yogajane | 5 Comments

Teresa Herrera just gave me a heads-up on the upcoming Global Mala Project in Manila on Sept. 20 (Sat). On her blog, Teresa describes Global Mala:

The purpose of the Global Mala Project is to unite the global yoga community from every continent in the world, forming a “mala around the earth” through collective practices based upon the sacred cycle of 108. Coinciding with the Fall Equinox and the United Nations International Day of Peace, studios, teachers and organizations across the globe will create fundraising celebrations, raising awareness for some of the most essential issues of our times: Climate Change, Children of War, Youth Aids. This event is the largest unified worldwide yoga event, dedicated to positive change, in the history of the planet.

I missed Global Mala last year but will try to make it this time. For those of you interested in experiencing this, contact Pulse Yoga. The schedule for the day is below:
