Coco takes place throughout the Mexican Day of the Dead celebration which offers a loosening of the veil between life and death, allowing temporary passage between the two worlds. A young boy named Miguel is transported into a fantastical world of specters and skeletons. Coco avoids the darker tones related to this theme, it is assuasive instead of haunting, which is a good formula for a fun and meaningful adventure.
Hope to see you there! ☺

-----------Other Local Events---------
Raja Yoga and Satsang
Raja Yoga is the royal yoga that brings the nature of our True Self to our awareness. This awareness cannot be gained through perception or intellectual knowledge, it can only be known through cognition, like the knowledge that I am, that I exist, it needs no proof, but without this knowing, the experience remains limited and misunderstood. Come join us as we explore our True Self through:
Silence, Meditation, Breathing, and gentle relaxing Postures.

To go within. To be present. To play. To connect with others, without words.
To discover your truth. To find inner peace. To feel welcomed and wonderful!. Let yourself be MOVED by a WAVE of great music from around the world: our music-wave builds from warm up to playful to energetic to exhilarating, then down again to sensual to meditative to deeply relaxing… Whooosh! We dance for 1 hour followed by an optional sharing circle.
Who: People who love to dance! And people who want to find out if they do. No experience or skill needed; doesn't matter what shape your body is in, or how old you are. All abilities, ages, backgrounds, races, religions, cultures, and sexual orientations welcome.

Group Meditation and Satsang Retreat
Sunday, March 25th
from Noon - 6:00pm.
at
61 Prospect Ave. 4th Floor
Binghamton, NY 13901
Seeing that meditation is the most effective means for significant beneficial change in our lives and in the world, simply because it improves the functioning of our most important tool--the brain, and because it is the easiest to implement, we offer this opportunity to dive deeper and marinate longer in the blissful silence of meditation.
The day will consist mostly of sitting meditation punctuated by:
rest, relaxation, sound meditation, pranayama, gentle asanas, Satsang, walking meditation, and a light vegan Soup-du-jour.
Join in at any time and stay for as long as you would like.

Promotion to show the following film in Binghamton
Mantra: Sounds Into Silence
Monday, April 30th at 7:30pm
SYNOPSIS:
A feature-length documentary, exploring the new music and social phenomenon of chanting, MANTRA – Sounds into Silence shares the stories of people who are finding healing and a sense of inner peace by singing mantras together with others just like them. It’s a film about spirituality not religion, it’s about people reconnecting with their true selves and with others.
As our characters’ stories about their connection to the music unfold, we meet the musicians who have inspired them and brought them together. Through these encounters, we will discover how Snatam Kaur, Deva Premal & Miten, Krishna Das, Lama Gyurme, Jai Uttal and MC Yogi, amongst others, came to this music themselves and to the practice of Kirtan, and how, over the years, it transformed their lives too.
