The Banyan tree is considered sacred to many cultures, some consider it to be the tree of eternal life. The Banyan represents growth, strength, and self-awareness through reflection, meditation, and a quieting of one’s mind. It is said that Buddha found enlightenment after sitting under the banyan tree for 7 days.

Hindu mythology refers to the Banyan tree as the tree for fulfilling wishes (Kalpavriksha), and the tree of life and fertility. The sacredness of the Banyan tree also comes from ancient stories that it was the residing place of Lord Kubera, the god of wealth, and Lord Krishna used to rest on Banyan leaves.

We are incredibly blessed to have this spectacular 200 year old Banyan tree right here in the Hunter on our property. Sound & Spirit guide the experience with a gentle breathing and vocal technique to bring you into the present moment, allowing you drop you into the experience. From there we will journey you through the meditation with Shruti Box, Crystal Singing Bowls, Tibetan Bowls, Gong, Chimes, Flute, Voice and other therapeutic instruments.
